We used that setup in the Arctic this February. We were blown away with how good that stove is. We also had the 3ltr version of that pan and the strength of the handle with 3 kilos of water and ice it never wavered. Excellent selection of products.

Lovely to see you looking so happy, when it comes to stoves there are few who have as many as you do I think you could do Goldilocks if you draw some rabbits on your head from a distance they will look like hairs. Thank you Paul for another entertaining video. I reckon it deserves a coffee

Really nice stove. Books water quickly, just wish the gas line was just a bit longer

The remote stove with better stability makes sense. Personally, I prefer the remote gas stove. Designed well it should be a success. Thank you for the demonstration and commentary.<br> From an old veteran, retired in the U.S., in a little home, on a little river flowing through the foothills of the East Tennessee mountains.

I'm glad to see your finally catching up with me and all my favourite kit 😂🤣😂🤣. The Fusion Trek is an amazing stove. I was shouting at the screen at the start when you said 'it doesn't have a pre heat tube', but you then did get there explaining it has a micro regulator, which is both temperature and (cylinder) pressure regulated so it doesn't need either a pre heat tube or the canister being inverted. I was recently camping with a mate on Dartmoor; I had the Fusion Trek paired with a Firemaple Petrel 2 pot, he was approximately 10 yards away using his Jetboil (sorry, I'm not sure which exact model): We were both heating up a large mug-full of water (350ml): The Fusion absolutely annihilated the Jet boil, it wasn't even close! I have many, many stoves (and tents etc, I know I have a problem) and previously used a MSR Whisperlite International stove set for gas so I could invert etc during colder spells, but it never gets used now, the Fusion Trek is just better all round (and costs a fraction of the MSR OR Jetboil). I also have the 2l Sea to Summit pot you used; it is good and certainly my first choice on the occasions I need that size, but Soto do a marvelous two pot set (The Navigator) and I'm really liking the Firemaple petrel 2 (that with the Fusion trek eliminates any need for a separate windshield
