Optimus
Are you after a stove that is compact, efficient and still super fast at boiling? The Optimus Crux excels in its class and fulfills all those requirements with ease. It can boil a liter of water in 3 minutes and fits in the cavity under your gas canister. Designed for those lightweight hikers who are after a stove to take them anywhere short of high alpine areas. Ideal for solo or partner use. The burner head is wide enough to hold up to medium sized pots and has enough power to resist most wind. An all round, high performance stove from Optimus.
