I finally gave in and bought a $12 pocket stove, and it outran my old Coleman on a windy night at Lake George
Three years of hauling a two burner Coleman around felt like the safe bet, so when my brother handed me a little folding stove I figured it was junk. It boiled two cups in about 90 seconds on a breezy night at Lake George last weekend while my big stove sputtered and I had to keep cupping my hand around the burner. The thing weighs almost nothing and fits in my jacket pocket, which sold me more than anything the box said. Now I'm second guessing every heavy piece of gear in my bin. Anybody got a wind screen hack for the cheap ones, or am I just lucky it didn't blow out?
