The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Msr Switch Stove System is an optimised gas stove comprising the burner and an optimised saucepan with a capacity of one litre.
It is a high-performance, versatile cooking system that guarantees low energy consumption and good heating performance.
The burner generates 2100 watts of heating power, bringing 500 ml of water to the boil in 2min 30s.
It's the burner + pan combination that makes this performance possible. The hard-anodised aluminium saucepan is optimised. The convex-bottomed pan heats up quickly and evenly, providing good protection against the wind.
The burner is fitted with a pressure regulator that provides excellent energy efficiency in cold conditions and at altitude. It also gives you better flame management, which is great if you want to cook.
The burner incorporates a piezoelectric igniter, which makes lighting the stove quick and easy.
The advantage of the Msr Switch Stove System: it's versatile! It's optimised for use with the Switch pan, but is compatible with other pans, popotes or frying pans thanks to its fold-out pan supports. These fold-down supports allow you to use saucepans up to 20.3 cm in diameter.
The 1-litre saucepan has fold-down handles and a removable isothermal cork protection for a better grip.
The Msr Swith Stove System includes the Switch stove, the Switch 1 L saucepan, 1 cork protector, 1 cartridge holder, 1 strainer lid and 1 nestable plastic bowl. All components fit neatly inside the Switch pan. A 100-gram gas cartridge (sold separately) can be inserted inside the pan.
