Pot GSI Outdoors Halulite 1.8 L — aluminium camping pot, 313 g

The GSI Outdoors Halulite 1.8 L aluminium camping pot is a lightweight, single-piece cooking vessel designed for backpacking and outdoor cooking. With a 1.8 litre capacity and a listed weight of 313 g, the pot is suitable for boiling, simmering and reheating on discrete stoves or open fires. The pot features a foldable handle that locks during use and folds for compact storage, combining durability with packable convenience for weekend trips, day hikes and extended multi-day treks.

Advantages

The aluminium construction delivers a favourable strength-to-weight ratio and efficient heat transfer for faster boiling. A locking folding handle provides secure control while cooking and reduces packed volume when stowed. The single-piece design minimises seams and crevices, making the pot easier to clean after use. At 1.8 litres the capacity balances meal preparation needs with weight and space considerations for lightweight trips.

Suitable for

• Backpacking and fastpacking where low weight is essential
• Weekend camping and car-camping meal preparation
• Hiking and day trips needing a compact cooking pot
• Multi-day treks and bicycle touring with limited packing space

Key specifications

• Material: aluminium for lightweight strength and efficient heat conduction
• Capacity: 1.8 litres suitable for boiling water and preparing simple meals
• Weight: approximately 313 grams for reduced pack weight
• Design: single-piece pot body to reduce seams and simplify cleaning
• Handle: foldable locking handle that secures during cooking and folds for storage

How to use

Place the pot on a compatible camp stove or over an appropriate heat source, ensuring stable placement and safe distance from flammable materials. Use the foldable handle and lock it into position before lifting or stirring; fold the handle away once the pot has cooled for compact packing. Do not overfill beyond the marked or practical capacity to avoid boiling over. Allow the pot to cool before cleaning and store it dry to minimise corrosion or staining.

Usage recommendations

For efficient fuel use, cover the pot when boiling water. Use a windscreen with a small canister stove to maintain consistent heat. Avoid using abrasive cleaners on the aluminium surface; mild detergent and a soft sponge are sufficient. Inspect the folding handle mechanism periodically for secure locking before each use.
