Introducing the Worlds Finest FeatherFire "After nearly 2 years of research and development we are pleased to present what we humbly claim to be the finest ultra-light backpacking stove available anywhere at any price... period!" Here's a few of the specifications:
But There's Much More to the FeatherFire Stove!The Heat out-put is Fully Adjustable
Although several of its parts began life as a beverage container, this is NOT yet another pop-can alcohol burner. The FeatherFire is a true stove that you can actually cook real meals with instead of just heating some water. It gives you complete heat control so you can boil, fry, simmer and even bake! ![]() By simply turning a knob you can incrementally regulate or “fine tune” your stove to give you exactly the amount of heat you need. ![]() And because the adjustment knob is conveniently located on the outside of your windscreen, you do NOT need to move anything out of the way or risk burning your fingers. This unique feature allows you to maximize your fuel economy! The FeatherFire is Hassle-Free
Basically all you need to do is pour in some fuel and light it. (You'll be eating while your buddies are still pumping up their stoves!) NEW! You can also use solid fuel tablets such as Esbit brand and still use the heat control feature! (Read more about it here…)The FeatherFire flat-out performs!All of the great features described above would be meaningless if the FeatherFire didn't get the job done quickly and efficiently, right? Well be assured that it does. Here's a letter we recently received from a member of our U.S. Armed Forces: To Whom it may Concern: During our extensive testing phase** we were able to consistently bring 16 ounces (2 cups, ˝ liter) of 60° water to a true boil (digitally measured) in a little over 5 minutes using about 1/2 oz. (15ml) of fuel. Here's a letter we recently received from a AT Thru-Hiker: Hi Dave,
Using the flame control feature of the FeatherFire stove we were consistently able to bring 16 ounces of 60° water to a true boil in just over 6 minutes and then keep it simmering for another 18 minutes using less than 1 ounce of fuel. That's over 20 minutes of cooking time using less fuel than most stoves use just to boil that much water! To accomplish this we let the stove reach operating full temperature (about a minute) and then gradually turned down the flame. So if you're not in a big hurry the FeatherFire stove can also give you ultra fuel economy! Here's an email from another happy hiker: Hi, The bottom line is this...You will love your FeatherFire stove... We guarantee it. Hikers everywhere are setting aside their gas and canister stoves for the super light-weight and ultra reliability of alcohol stoves. The FeatherFire is the only alcohol stove that will let you lighten your pack without compromising on quality or performance. We are so certain that you will be amazed by the quality, performance and versatility of your stove that we will allow you to return the stove to us within 30 days of purchase for a full refund of the purchase price and no questions asked. **Test conditions: Altitude 2100 feet, ambient temperature between 68° and 72° F., No wind, 60° water temperature was measured with a digital thermometer accurate to one tenth of a degree F. A 4+" diameter coated aluminum pan with a lid was used to hold the water and the lid was left in place through the duration of the test. An aluminum windscreen and reflector base were also used. Actual performance out in the "real world" will vary depending on conditions with wind speed being the factor that can most effect fuel efficiency. Tall narrow cookware (such as mugs) takes longer to achieve a boil than shorter and wider cookware. Alcohol stoves are low pressure devices so a proper windscreen is a must-have accessory. |
