JetBoil Flash Quick Review

At the summer Outdoor Retailer show this past July, another cool product I had the opportunity to check out was JetBoil’s new personal cooking system- The Flash. My new Flash just arrived in the mail, and I’m planning on using it during my upcoming 2 week Oregon/Washington coast surf trip, so look for a more extensive review later. However, for now, here’s a run down of the new sweet features the Flash is sporting.

JetBoil Flash PCS

• Color changing heat indicator on the side of the drink cozy: the indicator window turns orange as the contents of the cup heat up.
• New ignitor button: One push button easier to use
• Flux Ring: Helps to adequately transfer and distribute heat, meaning quicker boiling times and less fuel use. And! It sounds like Flux Capacitor, so you might also get transported somewhere in time as you drink heats evenly
• Tripod included for added stability when you’re cooking

JetBoil also mailed me the coffee press attachment, so I can stay caffeinated before and after my surf sessions. Look for a report on that in a few weeks as well. Though none of our vendors are carrying the Flash and the new coffee press just yet, look for it coming out soon!
