GSI Outdoors Halulite Tea Kettle

The integrated heat sink at the base of the kettle captures and directs heat from your stove directly into the water. This design increases surface area contact, which allows the kettle to boil water 30% faster while using significantly less fuel than a standard flat-bottomed pot.

This kettle is specifically engineered for use on camp stoves. While the hard-anodized aluminum is durable, the heat sink fins are delicate and can be damaged or clogged by soot and ash, so it is best to avoid using it directly in a campfire.

Yes, the handle is designed with a heat-resistant coating that allows you to pour safely without needing a glove or towel. However, always ensure the handle is in the upright position while the kettle is on the stove to prevent it from getting too hot.

The 1.9-quart capacity is the total volume of the kettle. For safe boiling without splashing or overflowing, we recommend filling it slightly below the maximum capacity.

Hard-anodized aluminum is significantly more durable and scratch-resistant than standard aluminum or non-stick coatings. It is designed to withstand the rigors of backpacking and frequent packing, though you should still avoid using metal utensils inside to maintain the finish.
