- The hybrid-fuel WhisperLite Universal stove delivers the ease and simmering capabilities of canister fuel, and switches easily over to liquid fuels for longer trips, cold-weather, and international use. Our patent-pending AirControl™ technology is what really makes it unique, delivering outstanding performance with all compatible fuels. It's also the lightest stove in its class, offering excellent stability and easy maintenance, adding to the reasons this could be the only stove you'll ever need.

This is EXTREMELY well done. Just got a universal the other week and excited to use it next weekend.
Thanks Kevin!
this video is awesomely done. Good job MSR!
Thanks Jack!
Excellent video! All of these instructional videos are great!
Thanks!
Very useful information to help fixed my Whisperlite. but any for the flame rings maintenance? Thanks!
+Kelvin LOU Hey Kelvin. For flame ring maintenance, we recommend soaking them in a solvent for 10-15 minutes and wiping them down.
i am thinking of using denatured alcohol in WhisperLite Universal. what is your idea on it ?
I just purchased one, do I need to do this before using it ?
Why do you suppose my new whisper light international has very little blue flame but seven or 8 inches tall of yellow flame when using white gas after suitable warm-up time?
Hi! Thanks for these useful videos. I'm having some issues with my Whisperlite International. The fuel line is blocked and the cable is stuck there, I can't get it out. I know its blocked because even though the stove works, the flame is very weak. I would be really greatful if you could help me with these.
Hi Arthur, Please contact us at consumer@cascadedesigns.com and we'll be able to best assist you. Thanks!
which jet is the whisperlite international sold with currently? Bought one at REI. Going to possibly run pump gas through the stove while backpacking europe. Curious if i should change out or not.
I'll probably take it apart and check. Just curious.
ah!!! My whisperlite international came with a UG jet installed! UK came with whisperlite international in a bag on the side also. Very good. thought'd Id have to buy one.
How can I tell if I have the Whisperlite international or Whisperlite? I have an older one handed down and was just wondering what was the difference? Is it just the jet? And can I change the jet?
yaks6312 I believe the Universal can run off of both liquid fuel (white gas, unleaded gas, diesel, kerosene) AND their isopro propane canisters. The International can only run off of liquid fuel. I'm not sure if one could potentially change out some parts and run both with an older model. I purchased the International because I prefer the cheaper prices of white gas. Canisters get pretty pricey.
Hola podría subtitular al español. Gracias
Can someone post the link for the previous generation Whisperlite International
Hey Mike, try this one: MSR WhisperLite Stove Maintenance
Realy want this stove, but it looks it cant take smaller pots?
All of our MSR pots we make are designed to fit that stove- EXCEPT pots made specifically for WindBurner and Reactor systems. If it’s not one of our pots/pans, we can’t say whether or not it will fit.
@@MSRGear Thank you for your respons!
One more question, will it be an upgrade on Whisperlite universal to be able to simmering like other brands can?
can it run on diesel?
Our Whisperlite Universal can run on diesel.
Is there a reason why it’s not stated that the Universal can burn 100% propane gas bottles (Coleman 1lb bottles) with a LPG/propane to lindal adapter?
All the manufacturers with e don’t say you can or say you can’t yet everyone who does it says it works fine
Good question, and that's correct! This has to do with the valve type. We do not recommend using third party adapters with our stoves. These are a potentially unsafe modification of the stove. This can cause the stove to burn at heat levels that it has not been tested for which can lead to permanent damage of the stove.
@@MSRGear So pure propane burns hotter than isobutane mixes?
@@MSRGear my recommendations for the Universal to really stand out amongst the competition, would be make bottles that can store water so they are more multi use, design and test lindal valve adapters for both the higher performance 100% pure 1lb propane bottles (which can also be refilled from the bigger 20lb propane tanks with the right adapter), and also a lindal adapter for the cheaper and more common (than iso butane canisters) 100% butane canisters which are available everywhere in multi packs. Instead people are either just using after market adapters anyway, or less likely to buy the Whisperlite Universal as it may not be as multifunctional in terms of various fuel types as they would prefer (even though it is very multifunctional)
weight please in pounds or grams. Thx
Universal packed weight = 1 lbs 3.4 oz / 549 g
