water boiling machine
I love the jetboil helios, It performed as advertized. boiling water for cooking and making safe drinking water from a back country stream. I look forward to trying the jetboil in colder temps to test out the advertized capabilities of the helios system.
great stove
I am very happy with this stove. I bought it to cook food on the trial for a boy scout troop. I can cook at least 1/2 lb of pasta in one cook with the 3l pot. I was going to use the 2 liter pot to mix the noodles and sause together.
Helios
all around good unit. It looks big at first... But keep in mind that it is two pots 2&3L , fuel, stand, and burner plus wind screen. The set up is very quick and easy. It boils water fast but also simmers well. Not as loud as other stoves out so you can keep talking when cooking. All in all very light in weight and easy on the pocket book.
