Review:

The Esbit Ultralight Folding Stove with Pocket Tablets is a compact, ultralight folding pocket stove that burns solid fuel tablets.  When closed, this folding pocket stove measures 5.2" x 3.8" x 1.5" and weighs a little over 6 oz.  With the included twelve solid fuel tablets, the total weight is 12.7 oz.

This folding stove burns solid fuel tablets to provide a cooking flame.  During transport and storage, the fuel cubes can be placed inside the stove to save space.  The fuel cubes tend to emit a foul smell, so a ziplock bag is recommended to seal off the fuel cubes.  The Esbit folding stove includes twelve solid fuel tablets.

To operate, simply open the stove, place a fuel tablet into the center, and light the fuel tablet.  It is recommended to use a lighter or match to light the fuel tablets as a flint stick might not be enough.

Pros:

  • Compact and lightweight
  • Included fuel tablets store neatly inside the stove

Cons:

  • Fuel cubes only lasts about 10 minutes
  • Fuel cubes may emit foul smells
  • Heat output is low

What are the differences between butane, propane and isobutane camping stoves? The difference is the type of fuel used by the camping stoves.  Each fuel has its own characteristics that work better in certain situations.  The size of the fuel canisters also plays a role to determine the best type of camping stove for the situation. Butane: Most commonly available in 8 oz canisters, the butane canisters are long and narrow.  They look like cans of spray paint.  Due to the size, most butane portable stoves are in the small to medium size range.  Portable butane stoves are also popular in Asian hot pot restaurants to keep a pot of boiling water at the table.  Butane fuel canisters are readily available and affordable.  These fuel canisters are not refillable and have issues operating in colder temperatures.  An e xample of camping stoves that use butane fuel is  the Gas ONE Portable Butane Gas Stove . Propane: Propane is a fuel that can be used for more than camping stoves.  Propane fuel
