The windshield is now unavailable as a single item and is combined with a circular heat reflector, specifically for those with multi fuel stove where the fuel is external to the cooker.
For those using a LPG cooker attached to a canister please only use the wind shield which is
140mm high x 800mm long, weighing in at 45g. (Warning- Using the heat reflector as well could result in overheating and explosion)
Personally I have reduced my windshield down to a much small size using tin snips and a pair of pliers to fold over the cut edges. Tapping them down with hammer provides a great smooth edge which won't cut anything in your sack.
For those using multifuel stove with external fuel, the circular base heat reflector will increase your fuel efficiency, lowers boiling time and stabilize the stove on uneven surfaces.
The combination of reflector and windshield is ideal for the winter months or unsettled weather conditions.
Weight
Windshield 45g - 14cm x 80cm
Heat Reflector 12g - Dia 23cm
NB: LPG users please note that with a bit of thought, the redundant circular heat reflector can be adapted to be used as a second smaller and lighter windshield. So it isn't wasted! Two for the price of one!!
