    Where can I get a good small stove for camping/emergencies?

    I'd like to find a small compact one I can bring on hikes or use if I need to leave in a hurry. Single burner, small is what I'm looking for. I just don't want to get one and when I really need it I try to fire it up and it doesn't work or only half of it does.

    Thanks.

    REI, Cabelas, Campmor, any of these sits should have what your looking for.

    +1 for REI and Campmor. I've used both of them in the past with frat experience. I particularly like Campmor's sale/clearance section. You can find some great prices their.

    convert a 5.56 ammo can to a wood stove.... small, portable, and versatile.... use it for both heating and cooking... never have to worry about running out of fuel..

    REI is great!!! The stoves from JetBoil and MSR (I have both) are absolutely good-to-go. Great gear, ultra dependable.

    I'd echo RIDE's comments: the Jetboil PCS or MSR Reactor. They are comparable products but have different strengths. Goggle "Jetboil vs MSR" or some similar terms and read through several reviews to determine which unit is best for your needs.

    I've had a MSR Dragonfly for about 12 years and it has always been ultra reliable. It's small enough to store in my backpacking cookware and it can burn just about any fuel. Boils a quart of water in about 3 minutes.
