Halulite 1.8L Boiler Review

I’m a gourmet backpacker and I usually do take a pot, pan and even a portable outback oven on my multi-day trips. However, it doesn’t mean I carry a super-big and heavy backpack. With the right planning and packing, the weight of all my food and cooking gear won’t exceed 7 kilos for a 5-day trip.

The expedition I’m planning now is a bit different. I’ll need to spend 2 weeks in the wilderness without ability to resupply and I should be able to carry all my gear and food with me. I’ve started looking for a lightweight and compact solution for cooking that fits well with my stove system. I found that a GSI Outdoors Halulite 1.8L Boiler could be an ideal replacement for my existing cooking set.
