DragonFly Stove
Bringing liquids rapidly to a boil is a good thing for a backcountry
stove to do. Yet, if you're the type who explores the culinary
world beyond freeze-dried and coffee, you surely yearn for a
stove that does more. Enter the DragonFly, the world's finest
multi-fuel adventure stove with a fully adjustable flame. The
DragonFly burns just about everything but yak butter, and does
so with a flame that goes from barely visible to one that roars,
thanks to its revolutionary CoolFuel Valve. No re-priming
or re-lighting, either-just turn the flame

Valve system, which separates cool fuel around the valve-stem
seal from hot fuel at the burner. Cold fuel flows down the Flame
Adjuster and through grooves at the end of the rod, keeping the
Flame Adjuster's o-rings cool, restricting fuel flow, and eliminating
the need for a generator tube. With the CoolFuel Valve, fuel
is regulated as a vapor at the burner.

WhisperLite Internationale 600
The Internationale 600 is tough, compact and quiet, and burns white gas, kerosene, jet fuel and auto gas. And, because it incorporates the Shaker Jet, it cleans with a simple shake. The Internationale has a larger diameter fuel line to burn poor-quality fuels with less maintenance and fewer cleanings. Plus, a fiberglass Priming Wick permits faster priming and lighting. Like all MSR stoves, it's field maintainable. All of which make it perfect for outdoor adventure-anywhere, anytime.

The jet controls the rate of fuel flow into the Mixer Tube. To do that, its opening must be extremely small, and thus it can become clogged by pieces of unvaporized, solidified fuel. We solved this problem by putting a weighted needle inside the jet. When the stove is on, fuel flows around the needle. But when the stove is off, it can be inverted or shaken, and the needle will push any debris through the jet's opening. You clean the jet with a simple shake-no need to disassemble the stove or use tools.
