X Boil Ultralight Camping Stove | Outdoor Gear Essentials | The Best Lightweight Camping Stove?
A quick look at my new ultralight camping stove that I got from outdoor gear essentials.
this is a spirit burner stove with wind shield and pot stand that weighs in at a super light 44 grams.
A link to the Xboil stove set outdoorgearess...

SUITABLE FOR 90- 100M WIDE POTS

Windscreen and pot stand in one
Stable and ridiculously small pack size
Effective and low noise
The x-boil is stowed on the inner wall of the pot to save space
The only requirement for the pot is that the distance between the bottom edge of the pot and the handle is 18mm or more
All X-Boil have holes for tent pegs as an alternative pot support
Space-saving pot hooks
Every X-Boil comes with the safety burner!
Inside the burner is graphite felt that absorbs the spirit.

Nice review mate much appreciate the kind words as always 🙏 it’s such a good bit of kit really well made and has all the extras , nice one Atb Col Outdoor Gear Essentials
Just received my Ultralight FS 75-85 from Outdoor Gear Essentials on Friday. Bit of a last minute rush (as usual with me) but Col at OGE was awesome to deal with. Used it for the first time over the weekend. It was -3C and this little stove boiled a 450ml Ti pot full of partly frozen water in under 10 minutes. Absolutely love this little thing.

Great to hear. I've a lot of time for Col. He's a good guy. 👍
Thank you for sharing. I ordered one the other day and I spoke to Colin. I now have mine with me and I'm taking it to the states this year to hike for a month in Virginia. Then hopefully going to Alaska. Regards, Dean
Simple but effective. What more could you want. Thanks Dan I bet we see you use that often. Bushyboy Oz.
That looks like it would make a nice addition to my collection.
Nice review there, Dan. It does look pretty smart. The puck is great, I like the idea of them pads. Cheers mate.
What a fabulous little setup. Never had anything like that but very interested in that particular one. Would a Trangia burner fit inside? I guess it would okay. And an excellent review there too Dan. Nice. :)

No, a Trangia is too high for it. There's not enough distance between burner and pot.

@@xboil right there, thank you for taking the trouble to explain that. I couldn't work out the heights from the video. I'd like to try it out so may try out Dan's the next time we meet up. I'm planning a lightweight trip in a month or so. Cheers, Warren
Looks like nice kit. I read a different comment about the fuel usage, but I only car camp with heavy gear so don’t know if that person has a good point.
👍👍👍
Looks interesting, you know me and stoves 😂

Just bought mine and like it. The x+boil and the pot on top are very sturdy and don't fall over even if you "hit" it. Unfortunately the Trangia burner does not work with it, it is too high and the flames get killed.
I made one years ago out of a used Daisy pellet can and some leftover welders felt. I ended up making three different sizes just for fun. I use my favorite one with a Zen Camps triangle windscreen which also works for solid fuel and triangia type burners. I like products that work with more than one thing.
What version is the one you tested in the video? Is it the standard one or the ultralight one?

Ultralight I believe. Used it loads since. Still going strong 👍
What fuel do you use to keep the flame going and how long will it last, asking as I’ve always used gas. Does the fuel come separately? TIA.

You can use meths or bio fuel. For these burners. Yes you carry it separate.. I've just got back from a trip and I did x2 egg and bacon muffins for breakfast on the stove. And used 1 full puck and a half.
How long do the graphite felts last on average before they need replacing? Thanks! Dean

Awesome! Thank you!
G'day Dan, that is well designed alright. I'm guess'n a Firemaple Blade 2 wont fit inside, I'd love one where it did, so as to have the choice of burner on a given day. Anyway well reviewed mate, very compelling. Cheers Duke.

Thats a lot of fuel per burn. 3x - 4x per day. You’d be going through a gallon in a week.
