Camping Stoves

well just looking on the internet at stoves for the moor, small enough to put in my bag, just wondered if asny one has any recomendations or ones to stay clear of?

I use a Coleman Alpine stove - it is very flat and folds up very small - the gas cannisters do come in all sorts of sizes, including one that isn't much bigger than the stove itself.
The beauty of it is that it can be broken down into individual componants as there is a hose for the burner.

I also have a coleman alpine - good for general camping use, and stable with a big pot on. OTOH, if you're after something to carry during the day to get a quick brew on, then something like the MSR pocket rocket will be lighter and take up less space.
(Or you could go for a jetboil, which will take up more pack space but is very quick.)

think i might have a look on ebay tonight, i wonder do country kit sell them at the meet???

oh nearly there!!

Most outdoor camping shops sell them but if you insist on getting it from Kountry Kit phone them up and ask them to bring one with them and you will collect it at the meet.
They do have an online site - not that I found it much use for what I wanted but it does carry just about everything else you need

there is a new camping shop in Plymouth that have a few out on display so i have a afternoon of before we sail tomorrow (engine change first - no credit crunch here) so might pop in and have a look what they have, there expensive but once i find the one i like i can look around.
