Great lightweight reliable stove - Soto OD-1R Micro Regulator Stove

I recently purchased the Soto OD-1RX Wind Master stove with the 4-prong flex pot support attachment from CampSaver. I was very pleased that the basic ground shipping offered by CampSaver served to speed the stove to my home in time for a recently 4-day solo canoe trip in the Adirondacks.
The stove is lightweight (2.3 oz with 3-prong support) and very efficient as it boils water quickly. I have to admit, I was surprised to learn just how fast it can boil water. It performed great.
The on/off simmer valve works well and has a steady/reliable low flame, as well as a very good high flame. I think its clever piezo igniter design is fabulous as it immediately fires up the stove. Its wind-blocking feature actually performed well in a variable 5 to 7 mph wind. I found that using the stove for breakfast and dinner for 3.5 days burned less than 4-ounces of fuel (Gas-One Butane/Propane canister gas). The 4-prong support is an absolute must if you’re cooking with 1 to 2 liter pots and 8+ inch frying pans. I found that I’d likely use the 4-prong support most of the time with the 3-prong standing in for day-time tea and soup mix meals. In light of its great performance during my Adirondack trip, I plan to use this stove on all my 3-season trips. I highly recommend this stove and the 4-prong flex pot support.
