fuel-efficient all-in-one stoves – PRIMUS LITE and Lite+ A Family Affair
Press Release / 26.04.2015
Modern all-in-one-stoves connect the gas cartridge, the burner and the pot to one unit, making them safer to use and offering a much higher fuel efficiency. Primus' new Lite+ is such a stove, fully featured and designed for one person. It is an updated version of the successful Eta Lite and comes with a new heat resistant sleeve in durable G-1000 fabric with felt lining. It features a webbing handle that allows using the stove whilst suspended. The new Primus Lite represents a specked-down entry-level brother of the Lite+. It is slightly simpler but it costs and weighs less, while still offering the same performance and outstanding fuel-efficiency. It reaches about 80% against 40- 50% of conventional stoves. So you need to buy, carry and burn less gas.
Primus' Lite+ (previously Eta Lite) sets the benchmark for compact all-in-one stoves. The unique Triangle Joint locking mechanism (patent pending) ensures easy handling. One quick twist and the pot is securely locket to the burner. Thanks to the Laminar Flow Burner Technology (patent pending), the stove has a lower centre of gravity, resulting in a more stable, lighter and compact unit. Great for any solo trip or a coffee break for two. With the optional coffee press it makes two cups of fresh coffee within a few minutes! The Lite+ comes with a new heat resistant sleeve in durable G-1000 fabric with felt lining, available in five different colours. The sleeve also features a webbing handle with the added ability to use the stove hanging. The lid cuts cooking times, keeps all the parts securely in place in when packed, and can also be used as a mug. The 500 ml pot is made of hard-anodized aluminium and has an integrated heat exchanger and wind protection. For easy packing, the stove, a 100- gram gas cartridge, the foot support for added stability on uneven surfaces as well as the suspending cord all fit into the pot. The Primus Lite+ stove received a "Best Buy Award" in German magazine "Outdoor".
The Lite is the new entry-level stove in Primus' Lite family, offering simplicity yet the same performance and outstanding fuel efficiency as the rest of the range. The patent pending Triangular Joint locking mechanism of pot and stove plus the Laminar Flow Burner Technology (also patent pending) provide a safe and efficient cooking experience.
The 500 ml hard-anodized aluminium pot with its integrated heat exchanger and wind protection in combination with the burner makes the stove one of the most efficient of its kind. The burner and all accessories, including a 100-gram gas cartridge, fit into the pot for easy packing. A simple insulating felt sleeve with an integrated grip loop ensures easy and safe handling. With a suggested retail price of less than 100 Euro, the Primus Lite represents an affordable entry into the world of highly convenient all-in-one-stoves. The optional coffee press (suggested retail price 14.95 Euro) fits with the Primus Lite and the Lite+, making them great companion for a fresh and quick brew in the outdoors.
