Product Description: Jetboil Personal Cooking System by Jetboil Redefining outdoor cooking with a super heat efficient, integrated configuration, the Jetboil Personal Cooking System (PCS) offers a simple, fast, efficient solution to cooking in the outdoors. Consider it a travel mug and campstove melded into one. The set-up goes like this: pull it out of your backpack (it stores as one unit inside the cooking cup), attach the fuel canister to the burner, snap the burner to the cooking cup, and press the piezo igniter for quick lighting. It's that simple. And it's fast too. The boil time for two cups of water is just two minutes. This translates to less fuel consumption, meaning less weight carried in the pack. The Jetboil PCS relies on a series of innovative features to produce such fast boil times. First, the burner is housed in a wind-protective shroud. Next, snugly attached immediately above, the FluxRing heat exchanger and cooking cup assembly gathers nearly 80% of the available heat, doubling the heat efficiency of standard backpack stoves. Additionally, the neoprene cozy sleeve holds in the heat around the cooking cup, giving it another nudge over the competition. The cooking cup works just like a travel mug. The snap-on lid offers a drink-through spout and drip-free pouring while the neoprene cozy eliminates the need for metal pot grabbers and is comfortable to hold while eating. The Jetboil PCS stormed onto the camping gear scene in 2004 when Backpacker magazine pinned one of their prestigious Editor's Choice Awards on it. They recognized the innovation and performance found in this camping stove, just like the continuously growing group of fans who rave about it. The cooking cup that comes standard with the Jetboil Personal Cooking System works best for feeding 1-2 people. Consider purchasing a Jetboil Companion Cup for each additional person or for group situations consider converting your stove with the purchase of a Jetboil 1.5 Liter Cooking Pot and Jetboil Pot Support and Stability Kit.
