- How does it compare with a Jetboil Flash?
- The WindBurner's regulator and deep wind-blocking burner hold up better in gusts and cold. The Jetboil is usually cheaper and its pot is easier to find accessories for.
- How fast does it boil water?
- About 4.5 minutes for 1 liter with MSR IsoPro. Expect longer in cold water or with a partly empty canister.
- What fuel does it take?
- Standard canister fuel such as MSR IsoPro. The regulator works best with isobutane-propane mixes; the 100 g canister fits inside the pot.
- What is in the box?
- The burner with folding legs, the 1-liter hard-anodized pot with lid, and a stuff sack. Fuel is sold separately.
- Is the WindBurner worth it?
- If you camp in wind or cold and mostly boil water for one, the steady regulated flame justifies it. If you cook real meals or camp in calm weather, a cheaper open burner does the same job.
- Does it work in cold weather?
- Yes, better than most canister stoves. The regulator keeps output steady as the canister chills, though a cold or nearly empty canister still slows the boil.
