If looking for a more permanent lid solution FourDog makes a titanium replacement lid for 18 shipped, so not terribly priced. There's also a universal one on Amazon that's 4.5" that should fit but I haven't tried it. It's currently 13.

The Evernew/ Pocket Rocket combo has been my go to system since 2014. It just keeps going

I hunt tahr and chamois on foot in NZ for 2 weeks at a time. Nothing comes close to the jetboil. I had the SOL Ti until the fins burnt out then replaced the cup with a Zip cup. I boil water for tea, coffee, dehydrated meals and use 1.5 100gm canisters in 2 weeks. I get 10 days out of a 100gm can. Yes there are lighter systems for short trips but fuel efficiency is where you save weight on the longer duration trips.

Been saying for a long time that the ultralight backpackers have this dialed. When I’m really minimizing weight for deep DIY backpacking hunts: BRS3000 + Toaks 550ml titanium pot + bic mini + 100g canister of isobutane fuel. Topically good for 4 days of boiling water for my mountain houses and coffee. I’ll take a 230g canister for longer/colder hunts.

Sounds like a great setup! Agreed, the ultralight backpacker and mountaineering community have their stuff dialed.

[@timberg7377]

Great video, as always.

I'm a Reactor guy myself. Awesome unit. Sure it's not the lightest option but it is bombproof and works great in the wind. Great to have so many options though.

[@Kifarutube]

Reactor is a bombproof setup for sure! Agreed, its nice to be able to fine tune things to the individual!

[@CrossedArrowsHunting]

I absolutely love this video, not only is it a super in-depth review I love your honesty of it, more please!!!

[@Kifarutube]

Absolutely. More gear videos coming up!

[@jamesmarshall7099]

Great video. Been using the olicamp with the pocket rocket for years. I always thought it was beating my buddies stoves.

Jet Boil Mini Mo and a Toaks 750ml pot. Another great video from the Snyder Lab

No STANLEY stainless that comes with the Green Cups?!?!? haha cheapo cheapo is best ever! Great info here though!

[@steelandsanderoutdoors2617]

Now I'm kind of curious, I've always boiled my water at a lower temperature it took longer but I assumed it would use less fuel. I wonder if that's the case or not. Does it save more fuel to have it on full blast high heat?!?!

[@alexheilman1035]

Between the MSR dragonfly, windburner, and pocket rocket im covered. Im really not even interested in anything else. Im comfortable with everything i have it would have to be a new ground breaking stove to get me to switch.

[@thedaventure]

Hard to beat an alcohol stove for day hunts where you just want a hot coffee or a hot meal, or possibly a weekend trip. Its been a while since I weighed it but its probably like 2 oz for a stove and fuel to boil a cup of water. Not something I would bring when expecting high winds but Im not going to die if I dont have hot coffee and I can get cover if I need a hot meal. Wish you would have gotten into the fuel consumption. Id also be interested in the fuel consumption at different burn levels. Id assume a smaller pot is going to be more efficient if a stove isnt cranked wide open and ripping up the sides of the pot.

[@Kifarutube]

We may have to investigate that in part two of the Stove Review. And make sure we dont burn anything down in the process!
