Looking for recommendations on the SP double burner stove compared to just going with a Baha Burner.

I love the GS-220 and it has been my camping stove for years. Works equally well stand alone as fitted in the IGT. You use the lid as a wind screen. Full on you have plenty of power but you can use it to simmer as well. I have a cast iron griddle that fits on the two burners for nice Plancha dinners. You can raise or lower the cooking surface by rotating the metal potstands. Love it but yes, it will cost more to run than a big canister stove. Get the bag for it too, works very well 

Dinner and a new carry case for the trusty BBQ box.

Motoz, which one of the many Drifta bags is that for the SP BBQ? Thanks.

They do, I have one.

I find wth the YDR straps and the long table strapped together, It gets tight. I've spoken to the blue ridge overland great about making a bag that has side zips to make t easier to load. If anyone else has interest, I'm sure he could make a couple.

Of course, Yuman made one too and I like his design, but unsure if he's still making.

You ever make any progress with Blue Ridge OG?

Do you have any info on the small knife? Looks interesting, as do the Snow Peak "tongs"!

Thanks for the recommendation. Decided to round out my SP collection with the 220!

Anyone have experience with Backcountrygear.com? Do they really have SP gear in stock? Hard to tell from their site - might be misleading...

Backcountry has some good items that say 24 hour ship so we will see!

the other place I have used besides REI or expedition exchange is http://www.basegear.com
they also have a %20 off first order but mostly have smaller items it seems

I posted about the SP BBQ earlier and I've bought several SP items from them and have had no issues.

Not 100% sure mate. I wanted a bag for it as it wouldn't fit in the SP bag. Luke said he wanted to make one anyway to add to his stock line. Mine was the trial one. Best to shoot them an email mate. They will make one no problems. Was $50AU from memory.

The knife is an Opinel #8 I modded a while back. Handy little utility knife

Sheep foot blade, mustard patina.

Thanks. Sounds like they are a trusted SP source.

Jeff,
Just because BCGear has it on their webpage does not necessarily mean that they have it in stock. I have several items currently on backorder through them. Since I couldn't find it anywhere else, no big deal, but be forewarned.
Cheers,
