I like the Lounge Table with built in Grill. The Lounge tent is awesome. Thanks for the link, Lennart.

I think the lounge table is just a 4 unit IGT frame with side inserts which can be bought separately. The grill insert looks like a square 2 unit BBQ box for Yakatori (no lid). I would have liked to see a 2 unit BBQ box with a lid (preferably a bit higher than the standard 1 unit BBQ box). Agreed that the lounge tent looks awesome. I can see a setup like that in my future :drool:

If they didn't use so many kanji on the website, I could actually read what it says

 

[Ramjet]

Totally agree with the Kanji. I too would like to see a bigger BBQ box with a higher lid for smoking cornish hens, rack of lamb, ect... Maybe Joey can give us aheads up when he gets back from Japan on his visit to Snow Peak HQ.

Isn't the Lounge Shell Awesome! We're trying to work out a few of the details but I hope to know soon when you can expect to see them on this side of the pond.

It seems really cool !
I like the setup with the tunnel to the sleeping area:


Got to start saving up for this. Beans it is for dinner the next couple of months :sombrero:

LP Adaptor

Where did things land with the propane adapter? Is that something that is being made/sold? Or is it more of a custom job? I am sure I could make one to suit our needs but was just curious if there was something readily available.

Same goes for the Single BBQ charcoal grate; is that something best done at home such as drilling holes OR is there now a screen/grate folks are commonly turning to that solves the airflow issue? I apologize if this information is already well known but haven't found anything on the snowpeak or overland gourmet websites and a google search lead me directly to EP.

The main reason I have stayed away from snowpeak stoves in the past was the inability to run them on LP compared to something like a Partner Steel or Coleman camp stove. Apparently I wasn't doing my due diligence when I gave up on the snowpeak camping stoves like the Baja Burner bc it sounds like people have been running them on LP for a while. In which case, if it will will run just as effectively on LP as it will on the canister gas than that changes things big time.

I am about to order an IGT setup for my personal use and am getting super excited. The Baja Burner would be a nice addition to complete the package and wouldn't have to deal with the HEAVY partner steel. We only have a handful of SP items now and can easily see ourselves converting as much as possible. We love high quality!

Chris,
I would most definitely drive across town for the lp adapter if you make them!

 

[Ramjet]

Good luck on the Baja Burner. It's been MIA for over a year now.

Expedition Exchange has the LP adapters.

Search for Kovea LP adapters, they fit the SP gear
