The Genesis Basecamp is Jetboil's stove for cooking for a group. It is a folding two-burner stove with a 5-litre pot and a 10-inch ceramic-coated non-stick frying pan, and it all packs into one carry bag.
Each burner gives up to 10,000 BTU/h (3 kW), and it boils a litre of water in the 5L FluxPot in about 3 minutes 15 seconds. The regulator keeps the flame steady as the gas runs low. A clip-on windscreen protects the flames on exposed pitches. You can also link it to other JetLink-compatible Jetboil stoves for more cooking space.
