The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Elektra FE Cook System from Optimus is a cooking set comprising a Crux Lite gas stove, a 0.95 L (2-piece) anodised aluminium popote, a windscreen, a piezo and a storage bag.
This set is light and compact. It has been specially designed to take up very little space while still delivering excellent performance. The Crux Lite stove generates 3000 W, bringing 1 litre of water to the boil in 3 minutes. The anodised aluminium nesting windscreen enhances the stove's efficiency and significantly reduces gas consumption.
The stove features a heat exchanger to reduce cooking time and save fuel. The system is particularly efficient and works in high winds.
The stove and pot are supplied in a storage bag. A 230g gas cartridge (sold separately) can be stored inside the pan.
