Cheap Multi Fuel Stoves
Summary: These simple and lightweight stoves burn wood, hexamine tablets, gas canisters, and white fuel via one nozzle. They are popular in cold weather, however they are noisy and 34630194.xyz lack the ability to control the simmer.
Some multi-fuel stoves burn different types of liquid fuel. The MSR WhisperLite Universal can be used with both white and isobutane fuel canisters.
Optimus Nova
The Optimus Nova is a multi-fuel stove that can be used with a variety of liquid fuels. It comes with a quick-priming stove and an aluminum pump that self-purges and precise simmer control. Its low centre of gravity and wide spreading legs make it a sturdy stove that can be used on rocky ground. This makes it an ideal stove for backpacking groups, base camps, kayaking, and 34630194 camping in the Arctic.
Unlike many other stoves with liquid fuel that suffer from a problem where unburned fuel is left in the fuel line and the nozzle of the stove the Optimus Nova has a shut off mechanism that operates by flipping the bottle over. This removes the intake hose from the fuel, and forces it to draw in air, 34630194.xyz that extinguishes the flame. It also reduces the pressure in the bottle.
This seems like a fairly innovative solution to an old problem and it certainly is effective. The Nova can be used with any standard fuel bottle that has an o-ring seal. This includes MSR bottles. It comes with stove bags that include pockets for spares, tools as well as lubricant and the fuel pump.
This is an excellent all round backpacking stove for use in the UK, particularly for expeditions where a variety of fuels is required. The price is reasonable compared to other canister stoves that have similar capabilities. The Optimus Nova is also easy to maintain and fun to use.
Kovea Hydra
The Kovea Hydra multi fuel stove was first marketed in 2010 and has been a favorite choice for many backpackers since. The Hydra isn't as popular with UK backpackers anymore, perhaps because they have caught up to better-known brands or 34630194 (www.34630194.xyz published a blog post) the most recent lightweight options from China or Korea. However, 34630194; Https://Www.34630194.Xyz/R71Kh-Pk88Hpr-Ad9-8Um7F-0Zr-3240/, this doesn't mean that it's less effective.
It's a relatively compact and light stove, that can burn all liquid fuels including white gas and propane butane, using only one nozzle. It has a fairly typical stove design with a burner bell bolted to a body that anchors three fold out support legs. The pump is situated on top of the fuel line, the generator loop runs around the inlet, and the flame spreader is situated over. The burner is a slow-moving flame type. This means that it is not susceptible to wind.
A nice feature is that it can also be used with a container of isobutane or propane, making it a versatile small cooker. It is easy to simmer using isobutane and propane, and it burns all fuels at a reasonable rate. However when using white gas, the stove runs a bit slower.
One thing to keep in mind with the Hydra is that the instructions are written in English which was not written by someone who speaks the language. The instructions caution against the use of certain kinds of lighter fluids that if used in a manner that is not what was intended, could cause an accident that could result in Kovea in lots of legal hot water. But, any 7/16ths UNEF threaded gas container from a trusted brand is likely to work perfectly.
Primus OmniLite Ti
The Primus Omnilite Ti is a ideal choice to those looking for an all-fuel stove that can cook using a variety of fuels. It can run on gasoline, petrol/gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, and diesel fuel. It has separate controls for each fuel type and allows you to alter the size of the flame. This stove has a fuel pipe that is flat on the floor and is connected to the tank quickly.
The Primus Omnilite is an excellent stove, but it requires maintenance to keep it running efficiently. It could be dangerous as it explodes when you are priming. This issue is common to all liquid fuel stoves, which use a secondary spindle at the stove's end instead of a coil to vaporize the fuel.
Another issue is the fact that it requires different jets for each type of fuel. This means that if you cook on kerosene the jet hole must be smaller than when cooking with gas. This isn't a major issue but it's worth mentioning.
MSR Whisper Light
The MSR Whisper Lite is one of the tiniest, lightest and most affordable multi fuel stoves. It is also simple to repair on the field. It can be used with liquid gas or canister fuel and includes attachments for both. The new model is lighter by 10% compared to its predecessor, and the burner system has been redesigned to improve heat distribution. This is an excellent choice for backpackers with a limited budget or for beginners.
It takes a bit of time to prepare, set up and boil water, but the whistler Lite is a reliable camp stove that will not let you down. The flame is very strong when turned to the max and will easily boil a liter of water within two minutes or less. The only downside is that it doesn't cook as well as other stoves.
MSR developed the Dragonfly to be a better burner. It's a similar design to the whistler, but is smaller and has superior performance. It's not as cheap as the Whistler Lite. The Soto Amicus stove and cookset is a fantastic alternative that offers the same configuration for a fraction of the cost. You can also get a Whisperlite International or Universal for isobutane canisters too. Both versions use the same basic design however the Universal version is also compatible with canister fuel.
Coleman Sportster II
This is a simple, no-frills Coleman stove that can do the job. It's small, self-contained and solid with the tank at the bottom and the burner on the top. This makes it easy to operate and a great choice for those who are new to backpacking, looking to save weight and for those of us who keep a few spares in the van.
This stove is designed to burn Coleman's proprietary fuel (naptha which is also referred to as "white gas") however it can be used with non-leaded gas too. A gallon of gasoline can last as longer as a standard Coleman liquid fuel cylinder, which means you'll save money on fuel by using this option.
It requires some practice to get a good blue flame on a stove that burns liquid fuel. You'll have to pressurize them and prime them properly before you can do this. If you're not careful, fuel can be sprayed onto the burner, or even sputter. To master this do some practice outside before you go on your trip.
This stove does give up some performance or flame odor effectiveness when using non-coleman fuels, but this is a trade-off in exchange for the extra flexibility it provides. Make sure you purchase unleaded gas, and not one that is augmented with alcohol or methanol. This is because these kinds of fuels can cause the unit to degrade, leak, sputter and possibly even explode!
ATG Jiko

It's a compact and reliable all in one system that burns solid fuel, alcohol, tabs, and gels with only one nozzle. It's an ultralight, minimalist design that costs less than other multifuel stoves.

The newer models of these stoves are known as 'hybrid' or 'compressed multifuel stoves'. there are many names for them like isobutane canister fuel white gas, kerosene and unleaded car gasoline/petrol.
A multifuel stove kit can be bought to transform your Trangia burners into multifuel cookers.
