Cheap Multi Fuel Stoves

Summary: These simple, lightweight stoves can burn hexamine, wood white fuel, white fuel, and gas canisters using only one nozzle. They are popular in cold weather, but they can be noisy and lack the ability to control the simmer.

Certain multi fuel stove surround ideas-fuel stoves can burn various types of liquid fuel. The MSR WhisperLite Universal, for instance, can burn both white and isobutane fuel in its canisters.

Optimus Nova

The Optimus Nova is a contemporary multi fuel stoves-fuel stove that can be used with various liquid fuels. It has a quick-priming burner as well as an aluminium pump that self-purges, and a precise simmer control. Its low center of gravity and wide spreading legs make it a sturdy stove that can be used on rocky ground. This makes it an ideal stove for group backpacking base camps, kayaking and arctic camping.

Contrary to many other liquid fuel stoves which have a problem in which unburned fuel is left in the fuel line and nozzle of the stove, the Optimus Nova has a shut off mechanism that operates by simply flipping the container over. This disconnects the intake hose from the fuel, forcing it to draw in air, which extinguishes the flame and depressurizes the bottle.

This is an clever solution to a long-standing problem and it certainly does the trick. The Nova can be used with any standard fuel bottle with an o-ring seal. This includes MSR bottles. It comes with an oven bag that has pockets for tools, spares as well as lubricant and the fuel pump.

This is a fantastic stove for backpacking that can be used in the UK. It is particularly useful for expeditions, where many fuel types are required. Its price is also very affordable when compared with canister stoves of similar capability. Moreover, the Optimus Nova is easy to maintain and a pleasure to use.

Kovea Hydra

The Kovea Hydra multi fuel stove was first marketed in 2010 and has been a popular choice for many backpackers since. The Hydra isn't as well-known with UK backpackers possibly because they've caught up to better-known brands or the latest lightweight offering from China or Korea. However, that doesn't make it any less effective.

It's a compact and light stove, that can burn all liquid fuels, including white gas and propane butane, using only one nozzle. It's a standard stove that has an inbuilt burner that is attached to a body that is anchored by three fold-out support legs. A pump is located on the top of the fuel hose, the generator loop goes around the inlet and the flame spreader is situated above that. The burner is a low-velocity flame type. This means that it is not affected by the wind.

It is a nice feature that it can also be used with a canister of propane or isobutane making it a multi-functional small cooker. It is simple to simmer using isobutane and propane and burns all fuels at a reasonable rate. However, when using white gas the stove runs a bit slower.

The instructions for the Hydra are written in English, but they were not written by native English speakers. The instructions warn against the use of certain kinds of lighter fluids that if used in a manner that is not what was intended, could lead to an accident that could result in Kovea in a lot of legal hot water. Any gas canister that is 7/16ths UNEF-threaded of a trusted brand will be fine.

Primus OmniLite Ti

The Primus Omnilite Ti is a ideal choice to those looking for a multifuel stove that is able to cook using a variety fuels. It can be used with gas, petrol/gasoline or diesel, kerosene, and aviation fuel. It has separate controls for each fuel type and allows you to alter the size of the flame. The stove comes with a fuel pipe that is flat on the floor and is connected to the tank easily.

The Primus Omnilite is an excellent stove, but it requires maintenance to keep it operating properly. It is a risk because it explodes when priming. This is a common problem with all liquid fuel stoves that use a secondary spindle throttle on the stove's end to vaporize fuel, instead of a generator coil.

It is also important to remember that each fuel type needs an individual jet. This means that if you cook using kerosene, the jet hole needs to be smaller than when using gas. It's a minor inconvenience however it's something to be aware of.

MSR Whisper Light

The MSR Whisper Lite is one of the lightest, smallest and cheapest multi fuel stoves. It is also simple to fix on the field. It can run on either canister liquid gas or fuel and comes with attachments for both. The new model is 10percent lighter than its predecessor and the burner has been revamped to improve heat distribution. It's great for beginners or backpackers with a budget.

It takes some time to prepare, set up and boil water, but the whistler Lite is a reliable camp stove that will not disappoint you. The flame is extremely powerful and can boil a Liter of water in just two minutes. The only drawback is that it's not as efficient to simmer as other stoves.

This is the reason MSR has designed the Dragonfly stove to be a more capable simmering burner. It's designed in the same way as the whistler, however it is smaller and offers more performance. However it's not as affordable as the whistler Lite. The Soto Amicus stove and cookset is a fantastic alternative that gives you the same setup at half the price. You can also purchase a Whisperlite International or Universal for isobutane canisters too. Both versions have the same basic design, however, the Universal version is also compatible with canister fuel.

Coleman Sportster II

Like many Coleman stoves, this one is a simple, rough and ready unit that gets the job done. It's compact, self-contained, and solid with the tank at the bottom and the burner on the top. This makes it simple to use and a good option for those who are new to backpacking, who are looking to cut down on weight, and for those of us who prefer to have an extra or two in the van.

This stove is designed to burn Coleman's exclusive fuel (naptha, also known as "white gas") but it can be used with non-leaded gas too. A gallon of gasoline will last as long as a typical Coleman liquid fuel cylinder, so you'll save money on fuel using this alternative.

It takes some practice to create a solid blue flame on a stove with liquid fuel. You'll need to pressurize the stove and prime them correctly before you can do this. If you do it wrong the fuel could spill out, splash beyond the burner, or even sputter. To get the hang of this try it out in the open before your trip.

The stove will lose some performance and odor of the flame effectiveness if you use non-Coleman gasoline, but this is a trade-off for its versatility. Make sure you purchase unleaded gas and not something that's enhanced with alcohol or methanol. These types of fuel could cause the unit's performance to decline and even explode.

ATG Jiko

The ATG Jiko Multi Fuel Stove from South Africa is an ultralight multifuel engineered to withstand harsh conditions like Africa. It's a compact and robust stove that burns gels, solid fuel tabs, and alcohol through a single nozzle. It's a light, minimalist design that costs less than most other multifuel stoves, and also has low ownership cost with fuel being less expensive per liter than gas canisters.

Other multifuel stoves feature a separate nozzle per fuel type. This makes them difficult to switch between fuels in the rain or without gloves, and could increase their overall weight. The latest models of multifuel stoves have come up with a way to use the same nozzle for various fuels, which makes it more convenient. The newer models of these stoves are known as 'hybrid', or 'compressed multifuel stoves'. there are various names for them like isobutane canister fuel white gas, kerosene, and unleaded car petrol/gasoline.

Another option is to buy an multifuel stove kit that converts your regular Trangia burner into a multifuel cooker. These are available at camping stores that specialize in outdoor equipment and can be bought internationally. They are ideal for Trangia enthusiasts. They can burn all liquid fuels except diesel and, with the right accessories, they can even simmer.
