The boil time angle is overstated for the majority of backpackers. The real savings of a heat exchanger pot are realized by the fuel savings. Any experienced backpacker knows to the the gas valve no more than half way open, as the flame is more efficient. Why is that the real deal? When you're backpacking for more than a few days you will need either two small 110g fuel cans, or one 220g can. The empty cans are dead weight. Thus an efficient setup means you can boil 16 oz of water 25-28 times with a 110g gas can. Not sure why Luke didn't focus on this aspect. As he mentioned, the field difference in boil times for the best stoves is not really relevant. Most of us go outdoors to relax and enjoy. Whether a boil takes 2 min or 5 min (alcohol or solid fuel), it doesn't matter. If YOU are relaxed, that is what matters!

One more fuel saving tip is not to go to a full rolling boil unless you really need it. For rehydrating meals... probably yes. For a cup of coffee... probably not.

@ajeinola 2 күн бұрын

Totally agree. Fuel savings is the key. Kind of the same thing with gear weight, weight is more important than volume. I can carry a huge backpack with no problem if the weight is low. Try to carry a small backpack filled with led.

I have that pot but I use the Soto windmaster with the 3 leg attachment. I boiled 1 cup of water in about 40 seconds while on an overnight trip. Tried it again in my kitchen with 2/3 cup of water and boiled it in 20 seconds. Love it.

@glenbalbin81 13 күн бұрын

Hello Luke, yeah you're right. 20 seconds difference in boiling time doesn't make much difference in the wilderness but it does make a difference in your liquid canister fuel and that is an advantage for me. All my pots have heat exchangers, been using it since 2013 and it really is an advantage . 🤙

I have the pot and I've been using it since the winter. In the winter I use a TOMSHOO titanium alcohol stove with foldable legs and pot supports and in the summer I'll use the MSR Pocket Rocket Deluxe. The TOMSHOO fits nicely. The MSR Pocket Rocket Deluxe is a little fiddly to make it fit. It boils water surprisingly quick with both stoves. And even faster when I wrap one of those titanium wind shield around the pot & stove. Speed isn't exactly a priority for me but fuel efficiency is important to me.

I recently bought the GreenPeak Stove, and their 1L aluminum pot that also has the heat exchanger on the bottom, but does not have the slots for the stove arms. The pot also has handles very similar to the cup in your video. I got the chance to use the cook kit not quite two-weeks ago on a very windy day where I backpacked to a nearby park (~7.65 miles) where I cooked a ramen, Spam, and spray cheese combination. Using my body and a plastic trash barrel to block the wind as the best I could, I had no issues with either the stove or pot and I was very satisfied with both. I didn't time it, but I thought the boil time on 750 ml of water was very fast. The stove lit on the first spark from the ignitor. A great, and fair review.

When I’m out carrying my stuff in a backpack, I am now only doing 1-2 nights max (at least so far as I’m going solo for the 1st time since my teen years). My primary concern is not “boil time” because eventually water will boil for any stove I’ve seen. But what DOES matter, is fuel usage. If I have two cups of coffee (doing single serving drip funnel) in the AM and heat stuff even just for dinner and tea (often in afternoon too now) how many times I can make the thing work on a trip on one SMALL can of fuel. Great Video as usual! Thanks!

I've experimented with a twig stove and a heat exchanger pot, but the 1L variant. The heat exchanger makes a difference from a ten minute hardly boiling, to a seven minute rolling boil. This is doing one collection of twigs, and not refilling the fire part way through. If you are using alcohol or twig stoves with less heat output, i would say this tech will have even greater advantages in taking more advantage of low heat output.

@carldwyer6058 14 күн бұрын

The pot works with the MSR Pocket Rocket (original) It does not work with the BRS stove. If your tri-leg stove opens directly from the center, it will work, if the line of the legs do not point directly to the center of the stove, then it will not work. (You can of course modify the pot or legs if you want.)

I suspect the performance difference outdoors will be better than just 18 seconds because the stove is partly shrouded from the wind by the petrel's heat spreader. It may be further improved by using a Soto Windmaster with the triflex support (or is this stove just a copy of that?). An advantage of this type of setup over something like a Jetboil and other similar kits is that with this setup you could, if needed, use the regular thin and tall butane canisters with an adapter. Those types of butane canisters are common in some parts of the world and are definitely cheaper. So it gives a little more versatility.

I have been checking this pot out, and haven’t pulled the trigger yet. I love the review and the stove option but it will be used with my MSR pocket rocket deluxe as I already have it and enjoy this stove. 18sec with that stove is as someone below said 15% savings and fuel and maybe 48sec. with the right stove as Luke mentioned another 30sec faster that’s a huge fuel savings and taking a smaller fuel canister or more days on trail with same one. Great Review Luke!

When you think about it the heat spreader is a built-in windscreen. It would be nice to see what popular three-pronged stoves work with this one. The BRS 3000 is one I'd like to see reviewed in particular because its boil time is abysmal without wind protection. On another note though I discovered a new outdoor portable water filter company recently from the UK. It's called pure clear and seems to essentially be a miniature Grayl filter from the review I first encountered it in. One thing that concerns me is its versatility because it seems to have a proprietary screw-top attachment. Given its flow rate, it would be really nice to be able to set up a gravity filter feed, but I am not sure that is possible. Also, I'd like to know if its claims regarding its filter capabilities hold up to snuff. If it does, I would see this as considerably more useful than the Grayl, even with a reduced flow rate, just simply due to its size and ability to remove the taste from more questionable water sources. I would love to see a review from you on it. They do ship to the US.

Seconds don't matter to me. My issue with heat spreader pots is using them over open flames. My default is a debris stove (Firebox Freestyle or Nano Ti) and an alcohol stove (Trangia, Siphon, or Fancee Feest). I like the alcohol stove for the morning, and the debris stove for cooking dinner. I'm not in a hurry to cook, and I like the silence. Even when I used rocket stoves, I still liked having the ability to cook on a fire if/when there are stove or fuel problems.

I have a question unrelated to cooking. I always enjoy your videos. How do you address security at your campsites and/or have you done some videos in the past on this issue? I mean carrying a handgun is always a good idea but doesn't address all security concerns, especially if you are sleeping in the middle of no where. Have you thought about using Kevlar line as a perimeter trip wire / warning system? Maybe the wire will also deter some animals. I mentioned Kevlar line because it's light weight, extremely strong, fire resistant, and has extra use case uses, similar to paranoid but lighter and stronger in some instances. My other question is safety from hunters. I don't see you ever wearing any bright colors when camping. Is that because you don't camp during hunting seasons or the areas you camp at don't allow hunting. I. Learned there about about one thousand accidental hunting shootings each year with about 100 deaths. What are your recommendations? Thank you.

Hello Luke. I find a more noticeable difference with a heat spreader pot and an alcohol stove. It can be the difference between achieving a boil, or lukewarm water when the stove size dictates the maximum fuel per burn. As well, just to point it out, 18 seconds difference represents a 15% increase in not only time but fuel burned in your test. A user would need to decide if that fuel would add up on a longer trip to offset the extra weight of the diffuser.

The only thing for me would be the heat spreader. If you wanted to use a "cozy" around the pot to save fuel it would just be more awkward and 20 seconds boil time isn't enough to make it worth while. Seems like more of a gimmick than anything. Harder to nest pots, and takes more space.

They offer a combo with the green peak stove now and it is 74 bucks buy by the time you add taxes and S&H it is over 80 bucks. I bought the stove for 19.99 and the pot for 23.99 after taxes and S&H it came to 58.99. That is still about 30 bucks cheaper. As for the time to boil water 2 minutes is fine for me.

So what do you gas guys do when you in the bush and run out of gas? I never use gas specifically for that. I guess the heat spreader would be ideal to help preserve your fuel where possible. Still, I’m just burning twigs. Titanium stove light as possible and I don’t have to carry any fuel just use what dry carbon I can find. Always been a firebug so I’ve never had an issue finding my own fuel.

@Im_With_Stupid 13 күн бұрын

It's extremely unlikely that an experienced, responsible backpacker will run out of gas because they already know how much they're going to need and will pack accordingly. If it does happen the solution is to just build a little fire. The worst thing about using gas is that you end up with a bunch of cans with almost nothing in them and that aren't worth packing. You can buy a transfer valve to dump it all into a single can, but I just hang onto them and use them at home for things like making waxed canvas and coffee when a storm knocks the power out. The best thing about gas is that you don't get covered in that stinky smoke smell which I personally cannot tolerate. It does suck in the winter, though, because if you don't keep the can warm you'll use up an enormous amount of gas just to boil a little water, but probably most winter backpackers switch to either white gas or alcohol when the temperature starts dipping that low.

Most people cook way to fast to be efficient. Just cook at a very gentle speed and your fuel canister will last a lot longer.

As much as I want to say. You did a good job. It's fire maple.... That's a company that doesn't seem to mind selling us dangerous gear. I do not care if this one is a good one. I will not support that brand.

That is the largest isobutane fuel canister I’ve ever seen. A 4oz canister could probably fit inside the 550 cup, making this kit extremely lighter and smaller.
