The same one as here in 0.7L
http://www.heinnie.com/product.asp?P_ID=6263
Only £4.99
Bought one yesterday from Lewisham store and they had a maybe 5 on the shelf as well as other stanley bottles.
They are very good!
Not as heavy as one might imagine either and a contestant for that expensive American one with the grip lids or whatever that people keep talking about.
I wrote a review of 200o words but you only get a 1000 on that site so i gave up, sorry.
The gist is though that one could theoretically boil up your untreated but filtered water in the bottle with the cap off obviously.
Stanley make no claims to that but i think its entirely possible.
Let it cool before replacing the lid.
The lid is very well designed with strength and longevity in mind.
I think its an excellent bottle and for the sake of a few extra ounces worth the weight especially with bushcrafters and campers. Not if you were a lightweight hiker though.
Good wide thread on the screw top so less likely to get gunk build up and easy to clean.
Good solid strap and excellent connection to bottom of lid.
Lovely wide mouth for filling and cleaning inside after scale build up.
Nice green lid, not too garish.
Only niggle is that because the bottle is solid and the lid is strong plastic there is no give in the bottle so water comes out via gravity ie you cant suck it out.
Half price of heine and you can check it out at tk maxx.
If you can then get the wider one 0.9L as there will be more stability on your pot stand should you decide to experiment.
Again i take no responsibility for misuse but i really can't see why one couldn't use it to boil water. Just let it cool properly after. Brushed stainless will make it a pain to clean soot off though so try alcohol stove.
Let me know how you get on.
