Went into a local supply shop and got to play around with two of them in particular. The Super Fly and Pocket Rocket. I originally thought that the Whisperlite was going to be the one for me, with the whole multi-fuel property…but frankly, I don’t get on the trail frequently enough, or for long enough hikes to justify it. So I think we are going to go with one that is bound to use the mixed fuel in the MSR canister. Also, I have heard plenty of nightmare stories about priming and setting tables on fire, etc, so lets play it safe too while we’re at it. :)

I’ll let you know which one I end up getting and also how it compares to say, Sterno.

For a good read, and frankly, one that really sold me, checkout this article: http://www.thru-hiker.com/articles.asp?subcat=2&cid=42
