Brunton Polaris on MSNBC Blog

Brunton Polaris Camping Lamp
On the other end of the weight spectrum, but perfect for car camping (where you drive to the campsite) or backyarding it, is the Brunton Polaris. It weighs about one pound, due to its use of C-size batteries, but I love it because it makes everybody look great. Seriously: If you have a romantic camping outing on your mind, lighting is everything; the last thing you want is to bathe you and your companion in the same light they use to illuminate the produce aisle at Costco. The Polaris has a unique orange filter that looks like soft firelight, making you look, you know, outdoorsy and healthy. Link to story

Vapor AF is Popular Science "Best of What's New"

Popsci_cover  Popsci

The new Apple iPhone wasn't the only big innovation of 2007, so was the Brunton Vapor AF Expedition Stove according to Popular Science Magazine.

"Fire up your camping stove with any packable fuel, whether a butane gas canister, kerosene, gasoline—even airplane fuel. Other stoves require you to carry and swap different jets to switch between gas and liquid fuels, because each releases fuel into the air differently. But the Vapor AF regulates the air instead of the fuel. Turn the burner to one of two settings—liquid or gas—and the optimum amount of air rushes in to mix with the fuel and give you combustion."
