Nalgene 38oz Stainless Steel Water Bottle

Written on Mar 25, 2015

Nalgene Stainless Steel bottles don't have a welded seam down the middle like other bottles so the Nalgene design is better. The threads for the cap are welded on, not stamped into the bottle, so the inner wall of the neck is completely smooth. This aids in cleaning. The lid is removable and is held on with a piece of small rope. You can remove the lid, and use the groove for the lid rope to suspend the bottle over a fire for boiling water in. You have to rig a way to do that with a Kleen Kanteen by getting a fish jaw spreader. Unfortunatly the 38 oz seems to be unavailable now leaving only the 27oz backpacker version.

Emberlit UL titanium stove

Written on Oct 24, 2014

I purchased this to be a way to cook in the back country indefinitely using twigs and small branches if I had to. This is a backup to my alcohol stove or my ISO-butane stove. I hate the thought of running out of or spilling my fuel early on a trip and being unable to warm water and food. You never have to worry about that with a wood stove. The Titanium is significantly lighter than the stainless version, so you get more capability for just a few oz weight penalty if you carry this stove in addition to your normal stove. also makes a great primary stove if you want to build a small fire for each meal.
