I just picked up a Colman Exponate Xpert for $30 at a local sporting goods store. It runs on the powermax fuel canister that colman is going to be discontinuing, but I also picked up the adapter that allows you to use any ISO/Butane fuel cells. It holds the cells upside, allowing it to use the liquid gas and not the vapor gas. Thus allowing it to work down to about -15F with no problems. (I have not tested this yet).

The stove is not the lightest around - but it is good bang for the buck. If you want light, I would look at the colman exponate extreme. The simplicity of the stove can't be beat really. Works in all conditions that I will be exposing myself to.
