I bought one yesterday and cooked my breakfast on it in the garden this morning using Aspen 4 T fuel ("We've only got a few bottles left, the campers have had it all"). What a fantastic cooker, and what a fantastic fuel ! One question though, what does the lighting lever actually do ?

Hi Martin I'm not a 100% sure but I thing it acts a bit like a choke ( remember those? ) on a carburettor. I think it supplies a bit of excess fuel until the vapour tube reaches working temprature.
I agree with you though, they are fantastic cookers, in fact I think they are the best!

That sounds like it makes sense, next time I light mine I will watch it very carefully and see exactly what happens.
