HEXAGON WOOD STOVE

I work in a store along the Appalachian Trail. Today I found one of these BOT 700 in the trash outside the store and said, wait a minute, what's this? I tried to unscrew the lid. I have pretty strong hands and failed. I thought, this is why it's in the trash, but there has to be a way to recover this. I figured the lid must be sucked down like a canning jar seal. Another review mentions this problem. When you fill the BOT with hot fluid and close it tightly, it will seal like a canning jar as it cools. Good luck getting it open. But it can be done. The whole unit needs to be brought up to boiling in a hot water bath. Don't set it on flames directly or it will explode. Now, too hot to handle with bare hands, use a towel and slip a dull knife or some other thin tool into the lid gap and you can break the o-ring seal. FFFFt. Lid comes off. Don't throw away your $100 BOT pot for nothing. The owner of this pot had just come into the store to buy a cheaper replacement. I gave the BOT to a friend.

As advertised, very lightweight and sturdy

I've used the Vargo flint lighter for a couple years now and it is a game changer for use with my Jetboil stove in the back country and with my Coleman two burner propane stove when vehicle camping. No more matches or worrying about butane lighters going dry in the middle of a trip.
My most recent purchase was an extra for me in case I ever lose mine, and another one to gift to my son.
Simple and dependable...as outdoor gear should be.

stove came fast. it's super easy and quick to put it together or take it down. Fire's get started easily, burn hot, and pretty smokelessly

Just love it

Fits the titanium bottle perfectly. Helps keeps your beverages cool.

These are high end!

They’re sturdy yet extremely lightweight. Normally I keep them in my work bag so I can take a break for sushi at lunch.

Currently, I have them in my bag for a trip to Greece. Who knows what I’ll find to eat there!

I love that I can use this bag with my existing frame.

I'm going to fill it up with dive gear and run it up and down the cliffs all summer!

great products and services

Paired this with the hexagon stove and it works great. Perfect combination where you can use twigs as backup and alcohol when you have it.

We've used many containers over the years to rehydrate homemade, dehydrated food on extended backpacking trips and they've all failed for one reason or another. The BOT-700 is perfect! Lightweight, big enough for our shared lunch, leak-proof, and mouse-proof!!!

I have been tent/tarp camping for over 50 years and have gone thru hundreds of tent stakes. That is, until the vargo titanium tent stakes came along. I have been replacing all my bent and broken aluminum stakes with the crevice stakes and they never fail. Soft ground, hard ground, rocky soil- they work great and are exceedingly durable They don't break or bend, even if you pound them in with rocks. They hold very well and are reasonably easy to remove. They are also lighter than most aluminum stakes. I have been using them for years and have yet to bend one. I know they're 4 bucks a pop, but they last forever. I'll probably leave them to my grandkids.

Snaps together nicely. Much improved over last "grill". Looking forward to using it camping next month.

i knew the SOBATA-398 would be lightweight; however, since received I’m still impressed. Most comfortable carry and operates so smoothly.
