About Me I am spending more time on my website, adding video and photos.
A better digital camera would be a help for making my own video on YouTube backpackinonline channel. The first video is so bad. The second video is improved, but more improvement is needed for the videos I want to do.
I am sewing more of my own gear, trying out ideas I have wanted to see if they work better. I never thought I would do that. The forum has been a great help!

simple answer
It would be simpler to have JetBoil put on the "hangtag" and on the box and in the Manual, the JetBoil is for boiling water. Do not fill above the fill-line. Do not use a windscreen. ...

JetBoil Ti
The point I was making is, I would not warranty any modification whatsoever. I have been reading all along, as you wondered about the RMA and their asking to return it. Have you edited that out?...

JetBoil Titanium Cooking System
I have had no problem. I have the .8 liter JetBoil Ti. I live in Montana. It gets cold. I have had canister stoves without incident. I have seen others fail to screw on the canister until it...
