RE: Backpacking Stove
The best white gas packable stove I know if is the SVEA stove. Dad used one in AK in the 70's and we now own 3-4 of them. These things are great a fuel is readily avalible. Overall it my seem heavier but when you cosider it is all in one (pot, stove, fuel canister) it isn't bad. I look for alternatives and haven't found much to compair to it.
Check out the pic. not sure on the total weight but add all the extras that go with others and you'll find them close to the same.
