New innovative sound system stove allows you to sauté, simmer, cook, or boil and can be used with any backpacking pots or pans.
Seattle, Wash. (July 11, 2024) /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Today, Mountain Safety Research (MSR) announces the launch of the new SwitchTM Stove System for spring 2025, an all-in-one, versatile stove that allows you to sauté, simmer, cook or boil, and use it with your favorite pot or pan. This innovative new stove system is designed for price-conscious backpackers seeking MSR performance and reliability.
The innovative system lets you ‘switch’ to your own cookware with a quick flip of the deployable pot supporters, allowing for elevated versatility with varying pot sizes. It also features a Piezo Ignitor and a stove regulator, which provides reliable performance in the cold and at altitude for better functionality on more adventures.
Another unique feature of the SwitchTM Stove System is the patent-pending design of the pot, which is hemispherical. This design allows for a decreased boil time without using a heat exchanger. The shape also delivers much less carbon monoxide than traditional heat exchangers. Additional pot features include internal graduation marks and a removable sustainable, natural cork cozy, a more sustainable choice than petroleum-based Neoprene, which requires significant energy to produce. The system also comes with a fuel canister stand and lid.
MSR SwitchTM Stove System technical specifications:
- Boils 14L with an 8-ounce fuel canister (or 1.8L of water per ounce of fuel)
- Min. Weight: 4.1 oz (117 grams)
- Packaged Weight: 13.8 oz (392 grams)
- Price: $139.95 USD
“Our current stove systems, the Reactor and the WindBurner are not going anywhere, they are still going to be an ideal fit for a more technical user,” said John Park, Cascade Designs Product Line Manager. “This all-in-one stove is designed to be a catch-all for the casual backpacker, who wants a technical and versatile stove at an affordable price.”
The SwitchTM Stove System will be available on the MSR website and local retailers starting January 2025. For more information about the SwitchTM Stove System and MSR’s award-winning lineup of stoves and cookware, visit msrgear.com.
