About the Product
The Optimus Crux is so lightweight and compact that you won’t even know you’re carrying this powerful 3000W burner. Thanks to an innovative folding burner head and the convenient strap-on protective stuff bag, Optimus Crux packs down to nothing and stores in the empty base of your LP-gas canister.
If you cut off your toothbrush handle and trim tags off jackets to shave weight on your ultralight backcountry adventures, get even more serious with the Crux Lite stove. It has all the performance of the regular feather-light Crux but pares away another 11g by eliminating the folding mechanism.
