Boils water, weighs nothing, never lets you down.
There is not much to say about a stove that just works, which is the highest praise a stove can get. The PocketRocket 2 is 73 grams of utterly dependable canister burner.
Boils water, weighs nothing, never lets you down.
It lights first click, holds a flame in a breeze better than its size suggests, and brings half a litre to the boil while you are still rigging the tent. We have used the same unit for three seasons.
There is no piezo igniter and no pot support for very wide pans, so pack a lighter and keep your cook system sensible. At this weight and price, those are not really complaints.
The PocketRocket 2 weighs 73 g, packs to about the size of a matchbox, screws onto a standard canister and puts out roughly 2,400 W, boiling a litre in about 3.5 minutes. MSR gives it a three-year warranty.
Best for fast coffee and light kits. Worth knowing: no built-in igniter, small pot supports, and it struggles in real gusts.
