    Isobutane performance is very impressive.
    It’s a shame the jets can’t be stored in the tool handle.
    Definitely seems sub par with petrol, perhaps white gas would work better.
    There are other better multi fuel stoves out there but will cost substantially more.
    I will stick with my SOTO Stormbreaker until a V2 appears.

    *Summary*
    *Pros:*
    * *Fast boil times (**10:41**):* 2.5 minutes for 1 liter of water using isobutane.
    * *Versatile fuel options (**12:26**):* Isobutane, propane, white gas, gasoline, and kerosene.
    * *Excellent flame control (**11:32**):* Precise adjustments from simmer to full blast.
    * *Solid build quality (**6:32**):* Durable stainless steel and aluminum construction.
    * *Includes maintenance kit (**8:43**):* O-rings, jets, grease, and tools for field repairs.
    * *Innovative features (**26:10**):* Internal preheat cup and integrated muffler cap for efficiency.
    * *Good pot support and stability.*
    *Cons:*
    * *Pump performance issues (**27:12**):* O-ring pump struggled to reach optimal pressure, impacting liquid fuel boil times (6+ minutes for 32 oz).
    * *Proprietary pump design (**28:12**):* Not compatible with other pumps tested.
    * *Fuel line connection (**20:26**):* Rubber gasket could be lost, flared fitting recommended.
    * *No Shaker needle (**17:00**):* Cleaning jet requires disassembly. [Note: A commenter mentioned that there is actually a needle]
    *Other observations:*
    * Reviewer recommends purchasing spare o-rings and smaller paperclips for field maintenance.
    * Fuel bottle is high-quality and appreciated inclusion.
    * Overall, a good stove with room for improvement, especially regarding the pump.

    Hi Skeet, thanks for another stove vid. Love it! Been following your channel for a while and just made me wonder: if you could keep only one of the stoves you have tested, which one would it be? Greetings from the Netherlands!

    The problem with FireMaple products is that the products take forever to get here. It’s made in China! Maybe good products but it takes forever to get here.

    Stove looks like it has a similar problem to the MSR stoves in that it can't mount a small pot without some kind of adaptor. Looks well built but it's pretty spendy. Close in price to some MSR stoves made here. If it were mine I'd be interested in drilling out one of those jets for the naptha gas twice the diameter and try burning alcohol in it.

    Basically an Omni Lite with the silent burner included, a $50 value. Wouldnt be suprised if they make the actual Omni Lites for Primus. Would love to see this in titanium.

      Thank you, this is a great stove and the performance speaks for itself. It has some great features. Weather it's worth the price point or not is an individual opinion. I personally think it's worth it even though I pointed out some things that they could improve on.

    Nice rewiev. I have had simmeler problems with primus pump. I trorht the problem was the pump pressuer, but it was relly a semi cloud fuel filter.
    Can you try the luquid feed agen but remove, replace the pump filter?
