Primus Express Spider 2011

£45.00

Trail Designs Caldera Cone Stove

This is a remarkable product,  based around a tiny meths stove that weighs only 16g. In the past I’ve tried these and they’re rubbish, but the addition of the Caldera Cone transforms the performance by acting as a windshield, supporting the pan and funnelling the heat to the base of it. The Caldera Cone is designed to be used with ...
