I like a portable butane stove to make coffee. Takes about 90 seconds to boil
water.

As far as force vs forespar, I have never heard anyone bad mouth either. My
point was that you can't really cook on either in "bad weather", which is what
the guy asked about.

I am looking for a gimbled single burner for use in bad weather. I have
seen a force 10 and a forespar advertised. Has any one had good/bad
experiences with either of thes units. Each uses a standard gas cylinder.

the chances of anyone cooking in bad weather are slim and none. Nuts,
power
bars, peanut butter on crackers, dried fruit are more handy food. you can
also
cook up some hot food ahead of bad weather and store the food inwide-mouth
Thermos bottles.

The advantage of a single gimbled stove is that you can heat water for
coffee
or soup without right there immediately (though you do have to pay
attention to
the burning flame). but when it gets rough you won't even be doing that.

But Jax, which one is better?
I think he can decide for himself if he wants to cook or not!
