Compact stove advice

I'd agree with that on the Windburner. The MSR ignitor built into my Pocketrocket Deluxe has been a rockstar. The two in my Jetboils, not so much. One went DOA in short order the other is 50% on a good day. I'd still carry a lighter no matter what.

Good looking dog in your avatar @tops911! That a Drahthaar? I am looking for one. Going to go away from the Braque Auvergne's I have had to something a little tougher and more capable with waterfowl. Any connections for a good one? I've seen where some of the breeders are pushing for a little less crackhead on fur and less apt to fight with other dogs which appeals to me.

The jetboils you have to gap them. I don't know why, but they get bent in shipping or something from the factory.

Bend the contact tip until you can see spark when you hit the button, and it will work fine.

The one on my MSR pocket rocket deluxe I can barely even bend. It's pretty thick. Luckily haven't needed too.

I'll give that a try on the 50% one. The other doesn't even click so I doubt it will help there.
