So, I've been trying to track down a decent, lightweight gas stove that doesn't cost the earth - as lovely as it is, the MSR Dragonfly, for example - which doesn't even come with the stand plate and windshield required to operate it in all weathers, can't really be called a budget stove at £129.99 RRP. Ranting aside, I think I have found a decent option - which, bizarrely enough, appears to be one of the cheapest remote stoves on the market. The innovative copper-alloy/stainless steel folding design of the Gelert PZ Inferno weighs in at 340g (actually slightly less than the Dragonfly at 395g but here the comparisons end) and gives it an ultra small pack size whilst still keeping it nice and stable on the ground. Features include robust steel braided hose and matchless piezo ignition. The unit is very stable, with a low centre of gravity, incorporating 3 folding supports and comes with it's own carry box. The only gripe seems to be whether it will feed off a butane/propane mix or whether it is a strictly butane only affair. Will let you know if Gelert get bakc to me on that.
