Fire-Maple Mars Radiant Stove System | Camping and Backpacking Stove | Windproof Cooking System with Pressure Regulator| Portable Gas Burner for Outdoor Hiking Trekking Fishing

I use it with a fry pan,a small650ml mug the original 1 litre pot. Its awesome & turbo boILS water

The media could not be loaded.  This camping stove arrived in a sturdy cardboard box.It’s quite ingenious the way it packs as the burner stows away in the included cooking pot (with lid) along with a plastic eating bowl. There’s also enough room inside for a 230g gas canister. The gas connector line wraps neatly around the folded legs of the burner and there’s a loop on the bottom to hold the valve in place when stored (see picture).The handle locks everything in place and unlocks by squeezing the sides together. The stove’s own pot has a heat exchanger on the bottom which fits securely on the burner but there’s also a removable pan support on the burner so any pan can be used with it. It stands stably on its legs. The pot has insulation on the outside which makes it easy to handle when hot and also helps to keep the contents warm. So far, there’s been no carbon build up on the bottom of the pot after several uses.The stove doesn’t have a built in igniter, so it has to be lit manually. I use a long neck plasma lighter. When lit, the stove starts to glow in a few seconds (see video) and is pretty much windproof, especially when using its own pot. The connector is a female EN417 Lindal Valve connector but an adaptor is available on Amazon to connect to other types of gas canister (the ‘Anaconda’: https://amzn.eu/d/h2oZXsW).As a test I put 1 litre of cold water into the pot and timed how long it took to boil. This took 3 minutes 21 seconds on a windy day with a well used gas canister.The heat output is very impressive and full power is ideal for boiling water. Food cooks best with the gas valve turned down very low. Otherwise, everything burns because of the intense heat. The stove is cool enough to be packed away a few minutes after switching off.This stove is a bit large for lightweight backpacking (I’ll stick to my 50 year old Optimus for that) but its ease of use, high heat output and neat storage system make it ideal for a couple of people camping.I haven’t had this stove long enough to comment on its long term durability or performance but I’ll update this review if there’s anything to report.At £124.95 this stove isn’t cheap but it’s comparable to similar stoves on the market from other manufacturers. It stows neatly, is easy to use and really is windproof. If you’re looking for a top end, good quality camping stove that won’t let you down you could do a lot worse than this.

Wow, what a thing this is!!It comes with its dedicated cooking pot, which has quite a large capacity so it's quite tall. It can also be used with any flat bottomed cooking pan too...When you pop off the three-pronged pot stand from the top of the stove unit the dedicated pot clips straight onto the top, meaning it's really quite stable. The pot has a heat exchanger system built in the bottom so it channels the heat really well into the bottom of the pot, but as some have said, make sure you stir the contents of they might burn in the bottom of the pan. Lower heat and plenty of stirring is the key, plus that neoprene covering up the sides of the pan help keep the heat in while cooking too.You can also leave that three-pronged frame on the stove unit and it will happily sit any flat-bottomed pan on it, and it seriously chucks out some heat! It glows like lava when it gets going after a few seconds!I realise this thing isn't cheap, but it's seriously a great camping stove and actually doesn't need to use a lot of gas to get really hot. Using it on a medium to low setting, so it's just glowing, is more then enough heat for most cooking needs.Lighting it I found a bit interesting too; Unless I've missed something fundamental there seems to be no in-built way to ignite the gas? Not that I found anyway. I might be being a bit of an idiot though and missed it as so many other stoves I've used have something like a clicker that sparks to ignite it. I used a lighter to get this one going, which was actually easy anyway. Once lit you hear the roar of the burner and it starts glowing orange pretty quickly, though you can't actually see the flames themselves.Overall an impressive and rather neat looking thing. Works really well, creates so much heat you only need it on a low setting most of the time so it then uses much less gas! A winner in so many ways really. Not convinced I would have shortlisted it at well over a hundred quid, especially as it's not as compact as camping stoves can often be, but having used it I find it kind of in a league of its own.

I’m happy!I’m happy, good quality! Recommend.

I have a 13 dollar stove from Amazon... You know the el cheapo one a lot of people use. I decided to give the mars a shot as on my last trip wind killed my cook times. My son and I had to construct a rock wall and even had to go as far a burying the canister in rock to get a solid wind break.My old stove at 60 degrees with 50 degree water take 3 minutes 5 seconds to reach a boil 500ml of water (not bubbles but an actual boil). It uses about 8 grams of fuel for this test.The mars 60 degrees with 50 degree water take 1 minutes 40 seconds to reach a boil 500mlof water (not bubbles but an actual boil). It uses about 4 grams of fuel for this test.I think the winner is clear. Yes the mars system is heavier then a pocket stove with a titanium pot but fuel consumption and it's ability to fight wind I feel are an acceptable trade off.Fit and finish where flawless. I couldn't find any issues that would have been caught by quality control.Fire maple for the win. My only wish is a smaller pot. I'd like a pot half this size or like 600ml ish. I realize everything wouldn't pack inside with a smaller pot. If only the stove fit I would be fine with that. My use is boiling water for coffee and meals for me alone usually. So for those solo trips a smaller pot would be nice.

Fire-Maple, je ne connaissais pas du tout cette marque.Je suis agréablement surpris par la qualité apportée à la fabrication de ce réchaud.L'idée d'utiliser un bloc chauffant au lieu d'une flamme est fabuleuse en cas de vent.La conception et la fabrication sont vraiment haut de gamme, tout est ajusté.J'ai été tellement convaincu que j'ai acheté les gamelles chez eux qui vont avec le réchaud.Je ne regrette pas du tout, l'ensemble est très fonctionnel, en plus il existe des embouts adaptateurs pour tous les types de bouteilles de gaz, pas besoin de prendre spécialement les visées.Vous ne regretterez pas non plus.Merci d'avoir lu.

Ho testato questa stufa, insieme a mio nipote, che è uno scout e lui, abituato a questo genere di prodotti, l’ ha trovata molto comoda ed efficace.La stufa da campeggio è dotata di un sistema radiante.Questo sistema radiante, con regolatore di pressione, ci aiuta ad avere un fornello da campeggio in grado di mantenere una potenza stabile, anche in ambienti difficili con un elevata efficienza di riscaldamento.La stufa è anche dotata di un sistema e di un design antivento, infatti lo scambiatore di calore è in grado di racchiudere la testa del bruciatore radiante, in modo da creare una barriera, contro il vento.La forma a barriera consente il flusso d’aria calda di bloccare il vento. Il sistema radiante regolatore di pressione consente al fornello da campeggio Mars di mantenere una potenza stabile in ambienti difficili con un'elevata efficienza di riscaldamento.La stufa Mars è dotata di tecnologia di riscaldamento a radiazione infrarossa ed ha una valvola regolata dalla pressione.Questi due aspetti insieme consentono di aumentare e migliorare l’efficienza termica.Ci vogliono solo 3'20'' per far bollire 1L d'acqua.La stufa è facile da essere portata in giro, sempre con noi, in campeggio.Buon prodotto e ben fatto, molto robusto e resistente!

In addition to this Fire Maple stove which I ordered for review, I also own a smaller JetBoil Zip, which is what I compared it to.The fire maple is certainly larger, accommodating up to 1.5 Liters if you fill it right to the top. Plenty.I absolutely loved this stove, although there are a few small negatives too. Here's what I found:PROS- Efficient, only took a little over 3.5 minutes to boil 2 cups of water. Not as efficient as the Zip though, but this is understandable, see below.- Good lid, doesn't burn your fingers and lets you see inside. You could also drain water say from rice or pasta with the lid on.- Strong folding handle which locks firmly. Silicone covered so it doesn't burn your fingers either. Way better that the Zip which has no handle, just a nylon strap.- Does not sit atop the canister, which allows it to sit lower. This is a big improvement over many stoves of this design.- Included plastic bowl inside, which is of a sufficient size for one person's meal. I wish they would have included two, but you can easily add a second one inside or outside depending the size of your bowl.- Large capacity. I said it holds almost 1.5L and I was able to boil a package of pasta in alfredo sauce for 2 people just fine. You just have to be careful to keep stirring the whole time so it doesn't stick/burn.- EXTREMELY HOT. I placed an aluminum plate/pie dish on top of the burner to heat up some pizza, and it burned right through it very quickly. The metal you see on the grill in the 3rd picture is melted aluminum from that pie dish. I have used it several times after that and it hasnt burned off yet but it doesn't affect its use.- Wide heating area. Most small camping stoves (the Zip included) put out a flame that is only an inch or two at the most in diameter. This one makes heat all the way across the large burner (about 3.5 inches) so it heats your pot or pan more evenly.- EXTREMELY windproof. As there is no flame, but only a strong orange glow coming from the domed grill, there is no flame for the wind to blow out. I tried it out on a fairly windy day and it just didn't care. Also, when you put the pot on top, it completely covers the burner, which exhausts through the slanted holes you see around the base. So the wind never actually gets to the heating element. Even better.- Very stable. Both because of the canister being off to the side, and also the widely spaced feet (3, not 4). When you set it down, it stays there, and the feet raise it high enough that it doesn't scorch the table/ground.- Adjustable. The control actually lets you turn down the heat so you can simmer. Many small stoves are very touchy when you turn them down and go off all the time (I'm looking at you, Zip)CONS- A little heavy/bulky, but not overly so considering the large capacity and other excellent features.- Easy to burn food. Like with all of these small canister stoves which are not non-stick. You have to keep stirring to avoid burning the food if it is not mostly water. I burned some pizza trying to reheat it in the pot, then I burned it some more when I tried to heat it up in a pie plate.- No built-in igniter. A very minor thing, as I carry both a piezo igniter and a small Bic lighter in it.- A little hard to clean, since it doesn't have a nonstick coating. Same as the Zip and many other of these stoves, you have to stick to mostly boiling water, which this stove does extremely well, or stirring your food all the time and adjusting the heat.All in all, one of the best stoves I own. Not ultralight by any means, but certainly adequate for backpacking. I would recommend reducing weight somewhere else and carrying an excellent and reliable stove like this Fire Maple model. After trying this type of flameless burner, I will need to be convinced to go back to the open flame stoves, as I think this is much better.Highly recommended.

Et de par sa praticité et sa stabilité serait chaud et vraiment génial pour le camping. Il est très facile à utiliser. La bonbonne de gaz n'est pas fournie mais elle reste très accessible. Génial pour pouvoir cuisiner sans risque. Très bon rapport qualité-prix.
