Helios High-Performance  Cooking System

Helios High-Performance Cook System

High performance meets high capacity. Mobilize your party with this collective-conscious system.

Helios is an all-in-one cooking system that covers the gamut, from melting snow to prepping robust meals for you and your crew. Helios lights quickly and reliably with the click of a button. The system burns liquid fuel, so you can use every last drop in your canister and every boil is consistent. Clip on the windscreen for a steady burn in 10 + mph winds.

Includes:

  • 2L FluxRing Pot (3L optional) with neoprene cozy
  • Pot-supporting burner base
  • Push-button igniter assembly
  • Fuel can stabilizer
  • Snap-on windscreen
  • Lid and bottom cover that doubles as a plate (lid makes a good ‘flying disc’ for added fun around camp)
