Part 2 is a detailed inspection of the stove with emphasis on the high quality components, mention of optional jets using non-Edelrid jets, and breakdown of the stove itself. Part 3 shows operation of the stove using the titanium chimney I developed for starting up backpacking stoves running on liquid fuel (see also other YouTube videos of mine on this chimney design and use).
Review of my favourite backpack for bushcraft and trekking: The Lowe Alpine Salient. Very rugged, reliable and extremely comfortable. Well suited to carry: – load over long distances (long distance trekking ) or – heavy load through dense bush and forest Not a lightweight pack, rather costly (it will last forever though) and not suited for alpine climbing: Specs: Dimensions: 73cm x 36cm x 21cm (28”x14”x8.5”) Packvolume: 70+20 litres (2440+1220cu.in.)

A video review of the Icarus 600 by Vango. Icarus flew towards the sun and this tent is also aiming high. Easy to pitch, ‘as one’ structure with generous living area, this tent will create an ideal base for your weekend adventures. The Icarus provides a place to hide when the weather is poor or a haven to return to after a long day in the sun. www.outdoorkit.co.uk outdoorkit.blogspot.com twitter.com www.facebook.com
Part 3 is a continuation of my Edelrid Hexon backpacking stove review (see parts 1 & 2) now dealing with actual performance matters. This sub-part “B2″ demonstrates performance of the stove running on kerosene using a fairly typical diameter jet, 0.28 mm, that while not provided by Edelrid (the only jet supplied with the stove is 0.37 mm to be used for all fuels) is available from Brunton/Primus USA for the Brunton Bantam stove, and the jet is a perfect exchange for the larger Hexon jet. THIS is the jet size I recommend for using kerosene in this or any other backpacking stove. 0.37 mm is OK though for either “white gas” or LPG. White gas (Coleman fuel) usage for this stove is shown in sub-part “C” of this series of mine on YouTube using both the 0.37 mm and 0.28 mm jets for comparison.
