Default Jetboil Joule Stoves

Just and FYI for you backpack guys out there, I was poking around the Cabelas online sale notification I got this am. They have these stoves on sale from reg price at about 250 down to about 155. Not sure but I believe these are available online only.

I don't have any personal experience with the Jet Boils, but I got this little setup from Amazon. $10 and it works quite well.

Bang for buck that little one looks like a very good deal and not bad for weight @ 4.8oz

I use a solo micro regulator @ 2.5 oz but almost 10x the price

I hear you. But changed my mind when using my pocket rocket beside someone using a jet boil. So much faster, especially in wind.

They are a better system dont get me wrong. But for the amount of use, not justifiable to me. I can understand a guy that spends alot of time on the trail spending the extra bucks.
