Fast, fuel-efficient boiling

The Jetboil Zip is a compact personal cooking system built around the patented FluxRing heat exchanger. That corrugated ring pulls far more heat from the flame than an open burner, boiling around half a litre of water in roughly two minutes while sipping fuel. For a brew or a hot ration meal in the field, it is hard to beat.

Stripped back and light

This is the pared-down, military-sized Jetboil. At just 340g with a 0.8L cup, it is sized for one person and trimmed of extras to keep weight and bulk down. It skips the push-button igniter of costlier models, so you light it manually, a fair trade for the lower weight and price.

Everything nests together

The whole system packs into itself: the burner and a small gas canister sit inside the cup, and the bottom cover clips on to protect it all. That cover doubles as a measuring cup and a bowl, and an insulated cozy around the cup means you can hold it and drink straight from it.

Steady in the field

An included canister stand adds stability on uneven or soft ground, so your brew stays upright where you set it down. Note the Zip is the stove system only: it runs on a separately bought isobutane-propane canister to suit your trip.

Field kit from Platoon Stores

A firm favourite with cadets, forces personnel and lightweight campers, the Jetboil Zip ships fast across the UK from Platoon Stores.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Jetboil Zip come with gas?

No. The Zip is the stove system only. It runs on a screw-thread isobutane-propane canister (such as Jetpower), which you buy separately to suit your trip length.

How fast does it boil?

The FluxRing heat exchanger boils around half a litre of water in roughly two minutes, using less fuel than an open burner, which makes the Zip ideal for quick brews and rehydrating meals.

How is it different from other Jetboil systems?

The Zip is the stripped-back, lighter, military-sized version. It skips the push-button igniter of pricier models to save weight and cost, so you light it manually with a lighter or firesteel.

Does it all pack together?

Yes. The burner and a small gas canister nest inside the 0.8L cup, and the bottom cover clips on and doubles as a measuring cup and bowl, so the whole system travels as one tidy unit.

Is it good for one person?

It is built for solo use. The 0.8L cup is the right size for a single hot drink or a dehydrated ration meal, making it a firm favourite for cadets, forces personnel and lightweight campers.
