When I use my whitebox stove in subfreezing temperatures (20F), (3cup h2o, 1.5 fl oz heet, closed cell foam under heat reflector), it takes 2 minutes for the jets to flare. Then I read from people that they use a priming pan and then the whitebox flares in 10 seconds. Is this also true at subfreezing? How do you know how much priming fuel to use at subfreezing?

Thank you,

My primer pan came with my AGG stove, and it worked great at 3 degrees F. It said to use a "few drops" but I found I had to give it a good squirt all around at those temps. The stove lit a few seconds after the pan did.
