Coleman Lightweight Stove ![]() This is the latest Coleman stove to come into the shop. It's the Coleman F1 Lite. It's a pretty stripped down stove and weighs just 77g excluding the gas bottle. Tricks like making the valve control key out of wire rather than a more solid material definitely shave off the weight. It folds into a tiny little pouch and to be honest is probably rather easy to loose. It fits the standard self-sealing gas cartridges that come in a variety of sizes and can be found in almost all campsite and outdoors shops. Coleman claim that it can boil a litre of water on a windless day in 3 minutes. That's rapid! Would be interested to know if anyone has one of these stoves and if they have timed it? Please leave a comment if you have. Buy the Coleman F1 Lite Here Labels: Coleman, lightweight, stoves Thursday, June 11, 2009 New Coleman Folding Camping Stove
We've got a bunch of new Coleman stuff on the shelves waiting to go on the website. The first is the new Coleman Fold'N Go (that's Coleman's spelling) propane double burner.
![]() It really looks great. Opened out it gives you a 60cm cooking surface under the two rings and it's easy to close up and throw in the boot of the car. It runs off Coleman propane cartridges which cost around £6 each but use every gram of gas until they are empty, supposedly getting more value from each cartridge. The cartridges are widely available so there should be no problem finding them. See the Coleman Folding Stove here |
