They gave me a bunch of reasons "why not" in an email. I'm wondering if you've tested this setup? Know of a source to get a caldera cone or similar windscreen that would work with the Kovera Spider and a Toaks 1100ml titanium pot? Thanks for the help and I really appreciate your website man!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603557384301612750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359823178932343980.post-78844286789558438772014-05-21T11:57:32.654-07:002014-05-21T11:57:32.654-07:00I've been researching canister stoves and have...I've been researching canister stoves and have found your blog to be very well done and informative. I think I've narrowed my choice down to either the MicroRocket or the Gigapower. Would you recommend one over the other? I will be using a 2-3 liter pot and cooking for 3-4 people. One of the biggest differences between them that concerns me is that MSR estimates 60 minutes burn time on an 8 oz can while Snow peak estimates 85 minutes. That could represent a significant difference in fuel I have to carry in. Thoughts or recommendations?Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17475838941635089462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359823178932343980.post-21448794284907278222013-05-06T12:29:34.231-07:002013-05-06T12:29:34.231-07:00Fascinating.

They only block, as would any jet in any stove, if good stove hygiene is not practiced or or a very suspect brand of gas canister is used.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00027592643672841103noreply@blogger.com
