What is the uniqueness of the ETAPower EF Trail camping stove for backpacking? Let’s take a closer look at five areas of this camp stove and why it’s a great option for backpacking.

1. Backpackers look for a compact size and lightweight in camping stoves. The stove weighs about 27 ounces without the fuel. This stove may weigh more than some, but with the uniqueness of its own pot system, that sacrifice is more than worth it in cooking time and fuel efficiency.

Also included with this stove are a pot clamp, windshield, piezo ignition, heat exchanger, burner, pan/pot lid, 2.1L pot that fits in the insulated bag.

2. The stove is listed for $115-$120 dollars, but there are options to buy it cheaper if you do your research. There have been very positive reviews about this stove even though it can be a bit pricey. Also, in 2007 Backpackers magazine selected this stove as an Editors Choice.

3. You should save up to 50% on fuel with this camp stove, which means less fuel to haul around to lighten your load. The pot system that comes with the stove has a heat exchanger and a windshield to make your cooking more efficient. Sacrificing size and weight seems to make up for the efficiency of the stove. It all comes down to what you want to use it for (no pun intended).

4. Primus EtaPower EF is friendly to the environment due to the lower use of fuel. In fact, it has a preheating coil that reduces fuel consumption to make it incredibly efficient even at low temperatures. The complete set of stoves makes it extremely stable for cooking with fast boil times.

5. The built-in gas burner and piezo ignition create a safe and convincing stovetop function. Not only that, but the three layers of titanium nonstick surface on the pot, pan, and lid make cooking and cleanup a breeze. Plus, with the nonstick surface you can really cook some gourmet meals and not just boil water.

This stove works great for 1-4 people in your group. The 2.1 L stockpot can easily cook a meal for four without overflowing. Of course, another unique feature of this stove, which allows for lower fuel consumption, is that the carrying case can cook on low heat instead of continuing to cook on the stove. Simply cover the 2.1L pot and place the Primus EtaPower EF Camp Stove inside the box and enjoy the sunset before dinner.
