The Optimus Nova Stove is a multi-fuel stove that weighs less than a pound. This stove has received many awards and has proven itself in the field for many hikers and backpackers alike.

I've owned the stove for about two years and have used it about a dozen times. It has performed well in snow, wind, and in temperatures as low as 10 degrees Fahrenheit. The stove is a multi-fuel stove, able to burn white gas, kerosene, or diesel, but I've only used white gas with it.
