    Actually I would be interesed too. I feel like winter is always quite cold and not very easy to ultralight. In the summer, I am just a bit uncomfortable if my setup sucks. In the winter, I am worried and shivering.

      Figured the canister stoves would only get me so far down in the temps, plus if I have to melt snow for water….that doesn’t sound like a great use of fuel. So…I bought a used Whisperlite and a new pump and new 20oz bottle. I spent less for this than just a new stove/pump.

      I don’t like the childproof cap on the bottle…I feel like I’m going to break it twisting it down tight. I may buy an old school one and swap it.

      Anyway, I hope it continues on like a champ for decades to come.
