I’m looking to supplement my Dragonfly stove with an easy-to-use isobutane stove for our trip. The MSR Rocket Pocket Deluxe, the Snow Peak GigaPower 2.0, and the Snow Peak BiPod stove all have auto ignite and look good. Prices from low of $50 to high of $110. BiPod looks interesting and maybe best of the three if using a bigger pot or pan. For some reason, in the description on REI’s site for burn time they quote the GigaPower with the 8oz canister and the BiPod with the 4oz canister. Can I assume one can use the 8oz canister with it and double the time, or does the setup only make the small canister feasible?

n/m upon further research, I see that the legs adjust according to which size fuel canister is used. I like the looks of this stove!

Well, I bought this as a backup stove and love it. It's very small, the design is clever for stability, and very simple to start. Only possible "con" is that the fuel doesn't last as long as white gas, but next time I may just buy the larger of the Snow Peak canisters. Works great! Very nice stove.
