I went to this site to check it out and found that the address did not work so I tried www.lagear.com and got a message that said Under Construction.

If this site ever come back I would like to check out this upgrade on making a whisperlite lighter. I have one and I would like to lighten it if it is possible.

When I saw the subject of this thread, I thought it refered to the new MSR stove. Called the Simmerlite, it is supposed to weigh in at 7 oz, about 40% less than a Whisperlite. But, also 7 times heavier than a simple alcohol stove.
