Msr windburner or Jetboil flash 2.0

Msr windburner or Jetboil flash 2.0


Postby Lauris » Sun Jan 24, 2021 2:08 pm

Hi

I am looking to upgrade to one of these in the near future.

I watched some YT videos and seems like MSR is coming on top in terms of efficiency in the wind especially.
Only gripe it does not have in built ignitor.

Anybody got experience with any of the gear?
My main priority is efficiency in the wind.

Thanks

I don't use either, but tons of reviews saying the Flash 2 struggles with breeze and every review says the Windburner handles wind with ease.

BTW, igniters are prone to fail, so you need to take a lighter with you anyway, so don't let that be a factor for you.
