Had no idea fixing the piezo was an option! Glad to know that! Love my Windmaster.

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

It's a great stove!

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

The Piezo igniter on my my 3+ year old Soto Windmaster has worked, first time, every time. My back up is my FireSteel Ferro Rod/Striker that I normally use for a spark to light a campfire. Works first time, every time. Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

I have a lighter in my bag, but I just wanted the ignitor to work the way it always had. And yes, it's first time, every time!

@@SpiguyverBackpacking1Piezo ignitors, overall, have a troublesome past that most people are aware of.

The first screw you took out and removed you can leave out because it doesn’t wobble at all. I filed off literally 1 mm off of the top part and reinserted. Now the stove fits inside my Toaks 550 or 650 sideways with the canister inside. On the 650 the lid won’t close by a few mm’s but is fine inside either the orange sack or with a strap to hold on. Much better to store all together and not separately. One little thing is a huge upgrade.

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

Interesting idea with filing it down!

@rodoutdoors 10 месяцев назад

Hah perfect. Mine still clicks but stopped working after a while. I might take a closer inspection before buying the kit. There might be some salt water corrosion from taking it to the beach. Thanks for the guide.

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

Happy to help! Laughed when I saw your comment, since I already had this one ready to go. And if checking the stove doesn't fix it, you know you can replace it!

@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 Well after taking a look, it works.. sometimes. Then stops altogether. I think there's some issue where it sparks up top. I tried spraying some contact cleaner to clean it up but didn't help much. I tried taking off the top part too but it's pretty much sealed tight. Feels like it might bend it if I force it out. I'll just live with it for now by tossing an extra bic lighter in the food bag 😅

@Kenbur 8 месяцев назад

nice.

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 7 месяцев назад

Thanks

@user-mu1oy7tf3j 10 месяцев назад

If you invert the stove in one hand and screw the canister on from the top with other hand, will keep it from crossthreading.

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

Nice tip. I've never had one cross thread, but if that works, cool deal!

@alexwbanks70 10 месяцев назад

Can you do a video on how to find the Windmaster that I bought and is lost in all my gear? lol

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

Sure, it'll start with dumping everything you own onto the floor in the middle of the living room.

@jacobpoucher 10 месяцев назад

Piezoelectric tech is so wierd, smack 2 rocks together and create electricity whattt? They shouid bring back the flint wheel striker like a zippo. Simple

@SpiguyverBackpacking1 10 месяцев назад

You could always just carry the top wheel and flint of a normal lighter too, that creates a spark without needing the flame.

@jacobpoucher 10 месяцев назад

@@SpiguyverBackpacking1 of course. but im talking somthing integrated like these cheap piezo things. Maybe like the striker on a carbide lamp.
