My XGK™ EX Stove will burn a litre/35 Oz in 4 min 20 Sec. To stop any Carbon/Soot on your pot bottom, put pot on when fuel is vaporizing/blue and take off before you switch fuel line off. This way you keep your pots nice an clean! Before and after uses when cooled turn upside down the stove and shake for a minute, causing the shaker pin to remove any carbon build up. Do this and your stove will work for years! Great video, Liked and Subscribed!

Great tip!

Sometimes cold and tired, sometimes wet and alone, often a long way from home - there's always something very reassuring about the sound of a MSR stove on full kick.

I have the Wisperlite regular for 20 years. Works great, especially in winter. I keep an 8 oz can for short trips out.... Thanks Brother!

Love it! Just found a new one at a yard sale Best purchase ever

I've used the original for 30+ years. White gas only. Still works just fine so I would assume this one is of the same quality that I expect from MSR. I've used mine at 10,000 feet in sub zero temps and desert camping at 110F. It just plain works every time. Great video.

I've found that squeezing a small glob of fire paste on the generator and lighting it simplifies the priming process and is cleaner and more controlled. Just before the fire paste burns out, crack the valve and it ignites with an almost instantaneous blue flame.

I bought an older version of this stove about 12+ years ago for camping where a wood fire is not allowed. They work great, I have only used white fuel in mine. 2 points about it, the white fuel burns for a long time. One bottle is easily enough for several days to a week of camping. the other point is, if it sits for too long then you may need to take the pump apart and oil the leather piece inside to get it working again. Fairly easy to do, just need to know to do it. A great little stove!

Another good video. I've owned this stove for 6 years. It very easy with the canister. The holder to invert the canister turns it into a "liquid feed" system which works well in cold conditions. The liquid fuel is my favorite. It uses Naptha, which is white gas. Yes, that is Coleman fuel. Side note. Zippo lighter fluid is Naptha. You can safely use the white gas (Coleman fuel) in the Zippo lighters. Bonus! This stove has never failed me.

Hi Bryan. Old Eagle here from troop 463 in Sandy Springs. I agree these are great stoves. My 2nd choice, but my favorite because of the memories, is the old brass Svea backpacker stove. I really don't have a third choice.....it goes down fast after those two. We used the old heavy Coleman backpacker "pump up and blow up" stoves both times out at Philmont in '79 and '80 ( they evolved into the "Sportser"). I hated them....We almost set the woods on fire every night at dinner when we tried to start the darn things. MAIN POINT I wanted to tell you is that I was able to convert my Whisperlite Universal to burn drugstore rubbing alcohol (90%) by cutting a thin strip off an aluminum can, making a tube out of it, and then wrapping it around the stem of the stove where the air hole is. It doesn't have to be super snug tight against the stem, or even wrapped fully around....in fact you want it loose and have an opening going from top to bottom....you are only trying to reduce the amount of air, not stop it completely. The alcohol isn't as flammable, so you have to cut down the air/fuel mix. I find if I take the little tube of metal and cover up about 3/4 to 7/8 of the air hole, it works just like it does with Coleman fuel, maybe not quite as hot though. I like using alcohol rather than Coleman fuel because it is less flammable and thus a little safer to work with (to me anyways) , cleaner, and doesn't stink up the backpack if a little bit leaks out. It just evaporates in a few seconds. Maybe I'll make a video, if one hasn't been made already, and send it to you. The final design i came up with for aluminum can strip-tube is so that it has a little bit of metal that sticks out like a handle so I can adjust the air mixture after it's lit. Happy Trails..maybe see you out there on the AT. I'll be the guy with the 40+ year old external-frame Green Kelty pack, with the blonde wife carrying an identical one. Be sure to Say Hi. I'll keep an eye out for you and your troop.

Nice! I have been wanting one of these for a while now. So much better in options than jet boil. I’ll carry both though when I get this one.

My whisperlite international is still going strong after 30+ years! It’s not the lightest, and it can’t simmer, but it works great in all seasons and can be easily repaired/maintained.

Higher elevations MIGHT cause more issues with trying to use these stoves. The priming that is required to use these stoves can become difficult or impossible at higher elevations.

@timg9134

What are you calling high elevation? These styles of stoves are commonly used up to about 20,000'. Of course more pumping will be required, due to decreased atmospheric pressure, but you will have the same problem with a canister stove, but you can't pump them to get pressure back, so they are a worse choice than liquid fuel systems for high elevation. I'm curious if you're aware of a better option?

I've an old Apex model/version of this my sis gifted me. Made for Coleman fuel only methinks. (kerosene with a mod) It works pretty good, fuel bottle holds a fair amount. ~ Feels I like it more than this one as it works like a Coleman lantern/burner. Whole of fuel transfer line is on the bottle with a spider cap lanyard'd on the braided SS line. Also one of the three legs has an adjustment screw for leveling on rocks and the like.

The whisperlite universal is an excellent stove. The original Whisperlite internationale was an iconic and innovative design which dominated the market for years. Truth be told though, MSR was late to adopt liquid/butane compatibility. Primus and Optimus had it for years before MSR. I understand that you are very active in scouting. This used to be a popular model scouting stove. Recently there’s been a ban on liquid fuel stoves for scouts. (Liability issues) (eyeroll) I wonder if the scouting policy had anything to do with the decision to make a dual liquid/gas model? Also... when you run the butane canister upright you’ll have better flame control in warm weather. If it’s really cold the liquid feed mode for the butane will run longer... but that’s when the white gas and kerosene mode really shines.

Nice stove, Bryan, however there are too many moving parts one can lose and it would take up more space in my pack. I've been using a BSR with a small canister and both fit inside my 550ml Toaks titanium pot with the lid secured, taking up very little space. At age 73 I try to keep my overnighter pack under 20 pounds including food and water. The boil time is reasonable which I haven't clocked. With summer coming on I lessen the weight to around 15 pounds, using a woobie or Snugpak blanket instead of the Swagman Roll or a sleeping bag. My normal camp set up is a hammock with an Aqua Quest camo tarp (lightweight) overhead. During stealth camping my stove preference is a G.I. folding stove with trioxane or a Fancy Feast with alcohol (or HEET) for fuel. To hide the flames I use the Dakota fire pit.

white gas stoves are usually used in winter because regular canister stoves stop working when it gets too cold. Since white gas is so energy dense it can also be used for snow melting in the winter unlike alcohol stove which would require ridicoulus amounts of ethanol to do so.

@@SurvivalOnPurpose the Whisperlite will be more reliable and last longer on unleaded gasoline before gumming up with soot and is lighter than the Optimus Polaris, but the Optimus Polaris doesn’t need jets changed in the field while under stress or pressure so less chance of losing small parts, although I doubt the jets would need to be changed much on the Whisperlite anyway. However the Optimus Polaris can allegedly burn more fuels according to the user manual and has a simmer spindle like the MSR Dragonfly has, although it can’t sustain as low a simmer as the Dragonfly before snuffing out. The Polaris fuel hose packs down more compactly than the whisperlite hose, but the Whisperlite hose is stronger and easier to clean after using dirtier fuels like Kerosene and Unleaded due to the built in cleaning cable. It’s all a trade-off really. The British Marines chose the Optimus Polaris over the Whisperlite Universal, but only just, while the US military chose the MSR XGK EX which is the king on lasting a long time on dirty fuels but its limited in versatility with no simmer ability at all, no gas canister ability at all, heavier than the Whisperlite and guzzles fuel, but the basic design is very similar to the Whisperlite actually. Whisperlite Uni and Optimus Polaris are definitely the two best most adaptable ‘all-rounders’, with the Whisperlite slightly on the side of more reliable and the Optimus slightly on the side of more versatile with simmer spindle even for liquid fuels, although the Whisperlite Uni actually simmers better on ‘upright’ canister vapor. I’m leaning more to get a Polaris as having plenty of spare parts and giving it regular maintenance will strengthen its reliability qualities imo and I would kick myself if I find I need to simmer with liquid fuels but can’t, plus, there vids on KZread of people ‘upgrading’ their whisperlite universal by using the Optimus pump in their MSR fuel bottles, which seems to give Whisperlite Uni great simmer even with liquid fuels since the Optimus pump has a spigot in the pump and the Whisperlite also has a spigot in the fuel hose, and these two spigots used together seem to give good reliable simmer ability...but although this being done with no known problem YET for these few people who have tried this there may be some risk to this that isn’t known yet so try at your own risk of course, but it’s nice to know the pumps are directly compatible with the threads, since if someone else in the family preferred to get an Optimus Polaris you use the Optimus Pump as a backup for the whisperlite, plus many say the Optimus pumps are much better and stronger than the MSR pumps

I just sold my Whisperlite. Wasn't a fan of all the management and prep out in the bush. It's also dangerous if you flood the fuel line by accident. I almost started a fire.
