Vargo Titanium Triad XE Alcohol/Fuel Tab Stove

The Vargo Titanium Triad XE is a dual-fuel (alcohol/fuel tab) stove. The XE is designed for weight-conscious backpackers that recognize the advantages and disadvantages of buring denatured alcohol. Specifically, denatured alcohold does not burn well in high altitudes or very cold temperatures. In these situations burning fuel tabs is recommended. Characteristics of buring alcohol in the XE include intense heat during the priming stage of moderate heat once primed. Once primed the stove is very fuel efficient, using very little alcohol. In general, the XE can be used effectively in any condition, making it a stove that Vargo believes sets a higher standard in ultralight hiking. Features of the product: Removable inner container, compact design, retractable top and bottom legs, easy to fill, burn time is approximately 25 minutes, boils two cups of water in approximately 6 minutes, and fits any size pot. NOTE: A special windscreen is required. The windscreen will maintain the intensity and efficiency of the flame. Please visit vargooutdoors.com for instructions on how to make the windscreen.
