Hit the trail with the tool you need to feed up to four campers: the Primus EtaPower EF Trail Stove.
Primus designed the EtaPower EF Trail Stove as a lighter alternative to its original EtaPower stove, which was given the Editor’s Choice Award in 2007 by Backpacker Magazine. Designed for overnight trips and ultralight backpacking excursions, the EtaPower Trail features a piezoelectric starter and covered burner base for maximum fuel efficiency on the trail. The 2.1L pot comes with an integrated heat exchanger to further reduce your energy loss while cooking. The EtaPower EF Trail Stove runs on most brands of canister fuel, so there’s no messy gas spills to deal with.

Very nice! | |

| I like this stove a lot. Prior to this I had the Jetboil GCS. That was a decent stove, but I had a few problems with it. [...] This stove is about the same size as the Jetboil GCS. The stove is simple to set up and use. It seems to be more efficient and also boils water faster. Probably due to the built-in windscreen. The pan has a non-stick coating which is nice for now, but I worry about its longevity. The set comes with a felt-like liner to protect the non-stick surface so you can pack the parts inside the pan without fear of scratching it. It works, but you still need to be carefull with how things are placed. Would like to see something that offers better protection like a platic bowl that nests inside the pan but I haven't found that yet. I like the metal lid versus Jetboils flexible plastic lid which was hard to secure to the top of the pan. All in all, a very good product. | |

Not really, but it sure sounds like it when you turn it on. This thing is amazing, it boils water in no time at all. It is pretty light (but I'm no ultralight backpacker) and the included bag for the whole thing makes for easy storage and organization. The fuel for it is relatively cheap and also easy to carry, and the potholders and the included pot are also well designed and work well. I like this stove a lot better than the MSR Wisperlite that I used for a month on a trip. Definitely recommend this Primus stove. | |

Best Stove I've Ever Used | |
| Rating: | |
| This stove is amazing! It ignites instantly, even @ 12,000 ft plus altitude and adjusts from an extremely low flame, to a roar, with ease. I've never boiled water this fast and with such an efficient fuel comsumption before. Plus, the insulted case actually works; at ~40 degrees f, our rice pilaf was still warm after we cooked our trout. The set came with a 2.1 pot and I purchased a 1.7 to nest inside. Great stove- Great stable design. | |

Amazing Stove | |
| Rating: | |
My girlfriend got this for me about a year ago and it has been amazing. Used it everywhere from backpacking the Olympic Peninsula to Climbing Mt. Rainer and had no problems whatsoever. Does everything from boiling water faster then anything I have ever used to simmering stew. Definitely prefer this to any of the jetboil systems. | |

This thing BOILS...just took it winter camping for the first time and even with just standard fuel (i had to keep holding the canister to keep it warm enough to run) it boiled my 2L of H2o pretty darn quick....much faster than my buddy who had a msr something something...primus did a great job! | |

Solid System | |

Picked this up on the cheap. Great for group trips. it is light, versatile, and of course efficient. Before getting this I mainly used MSR whisperlight international. This stove is much easier and safer to light than that. no crazy fireballs just click that little spark thing and you are cooking. | |

Great stove | |

This stove performed great. Loved the case it came with. Not the lightest out there but if weight isn't an issue, this is a great stove. Boiled water extremely fast and the case made it easy to keep everything together. | |

efficient stove | |

This lightweight stove is perfect for backpacking trips, it boils very quickly with regular fuel even above 11.000 ft. And you can fit a gas canister as well as some utensils in the bag that comes with it. | |

A fantastic product with quality workmanship and solid designed. I like using the canisters over the fuel bottles, so it was an easy choice. Everything fits nicely into the nylon bag. | |
