Title:
MSR Pocket Rocket Camp Stove Review
Description:
When Eddie (the Manager of Young's Backpacking) first pulled out the MSR Pocket Rocket in its little case I thought he was joking. Smaller than a Coke can, the Pocket Rocket is insanely small and lightweight yet is able to perform most camp cooking/boiling duties. It's also extremely easy to use and can be up and running in less than a minute. On top of that, the $40 price tag puts it within reach of any camper/backpacker looking for a good reliable stove. Highly recommended! - Weighs just 3 oz. (85 g) - Dimensions: 4 x 2 x 2 in. (10.2 x 5. x 5.1 cm). (Weight includes stove, not the canister ) - Simple Operation: No need for priming, pressurizing, or maintenance. - High Heat Output: Boils 1 liter of water in under 3.5 minutes. - Full Flame Control: Glove-friendly controls allow precise flame adjustment, from a simmer to a boil. - Flame Protection: Tri-sectional Windclip™ wind shield protects flame and boosts efficiency. - Serrated pot-supports prevent the pot from shifting; folds up compact for travel - Burn time (MSR IsoPro) per 227-g / 8-oz. canisterAppx. 60 minutes - Boil time (MSR IsoPro), 1 liter3.5 minutes - Water boiled (MSR IsoPro) per 227-g canister16 liters - Water boiled (MSR IsoPro) per 1 oz. of fuel 2 liters - Made in Korea - AWARDS: The PocketRocket stove tied with the MSR WhisperLite stove as Backpacker Magazine Readers choice for the best camping stove in 2005 - MSRP $40 ((Fuel canister sold separately) Special Thanks to YOUNGS BACKPACKING for hosting this review.

![]() | Choosing a Travel Wallet Even though your money belt will contain your most valuable items (passport, credit cards, etc.), it's important to have a separate wallet for petty cash and day to day uses. That way you're not always reaching into your pants to pay for a meal (um...sorry that came out wrong) plus it can act as a decoy for pickpocket. Lose the wallet and you still have your money belt and essentials. When shopping for a travel/decoy wallet I always look for a few essential features: - Avoid leather. Go ... |

![]() | Joby Gorillapod Tripod Review The Joby Gorillapod is a handy little piece of gear for the snap-happy photographer. It's lightweight and incredibly useful for setting up your camera to get shots at angles/positions that would be impossible with a normal tripod. The only hit I would give it is that the plastic construction makes it vulnerable to sharp impacts and great pressure. However, with a little bit of care the Gorillapod will be there to help you get those unexpected shots when they appear. Retail: Original (holds ... |
