Jetboil Flash 1.0L vs Jetboil Zip 0.8L

Both the Jetboil Flash and the Jetboil Zip are designed for efficient outdoor cooking, packing speed, safety, and portability into compact systems. But they’re tailored to slightly different adventurers:

• The Flash 1.0L is built for those who want maximum convenience and speed, with its push-button ignition and thermochromatic heat indicator that tells you exactly when your water is ready. It’s a “fuel up and go” system with extra ease of use.

• The Zip 0.8L, on the other hand, is a lightweight, no-frills classic. It delivers the same 120-second boil time, but without auto ignition or heat indicator — perfect for backpackers who prefer simplicity, reliability, and a slightly smaller, lighter setup.
