As @Greatdane noted, below, one could wait for a drop for either the Soto Amicus or the Soto WindMaster, both of which are better in wind than the Micro Regulator. However, there is an advantage to having that regulator technology in cold weather (see below link if interested), and the MicroRegulator is less expensive.

hikin_jimAs an operator in a petroleum refinery, I often lament the poor--and frequently inaccurate--explanations of lpg canister performance that are offered, even within edited publications. (For instance, Backpacker magazine contained an inaccuracy last fall.) Kudos on your post, above. 👌

Cbahl220 Thank you for saying that @Cbahl220
I try really hard to be a) accurate and b) clear to the average person. Backpacker Magazine has had a number of notorious flubs, perhaps most notably their now-infamous March 2001 article which included a description of a fuel called isopropane. In reality of course, there are no known isomers of propane. See images below. I suppose there may be some advantage in reading reviews written by someone who specializes in the subject matter. In all fairness to Backpacker Magazine's reviewers, it's a tough ask to be able to review so many different types of gear. Out of curiosity though, what particular article are you referring to from last fall? HJ
