Do you think a MSR Dragon Fly stove would work for the heat source or is that too much heat? Thanks

It's a cool little kit. If the lid for the tin were removeable, it might work well as a lid for the cup too? I think I'm going to have to add that canteen kit to my own collection.

Silverfire was one of the original providers of these kinds of stoves many years ago. My old one still works and it's much bigger than these.

I must have bought some blue Gaz fuel cannisters when one style was being phased out to another.. circa 1995 . I just got an adapter for butane-mix cans to the 16oz propane bottles..and found the threads dont match on what I think is a bluet camp stove female outlet..duh. Its just a compact stove to always keep in a vehicle for emergency cups of hot tea..and the 16oz canisters are available everywhere..whereas i used to only find backpacking gaz cannisters in backpacking stores...in the cilties. NZ now has 16oz bottles. Thanks for illuminating the history there.

Bro are the compass bands shown in the last part compatible with Metallic silver buckle type watches and what are the pros and cons of using compass watchbands in today's world ?? Bro can you recommend or share some other useful tools/accessories like this compass watchbands (for ex:- Chronograph temperature meter or altitude meterwith strap etc...) that enhances the aesthetic of analog watches

Bro is it worth buying such compass wristbands in today's world espeically for classic analog watch users and does it look aesthetic and cool?? BTW i had ordered the last one which is similar to the last one in this video.Also can i use it on my 19mm,20mm,21mm,24mm or 25mm Rubber and silicone watch straps bro?? Are the compass watchbands durable and are they good for classic people like us who use Analog watch straps in today's world??

Thanks planetside. Been following your vids for about 6 months. For me the Trangia is for all occasions, the Alocs is limited, but for a backpacker, ideal.

Are those German Army butter dishes on your counter? If so, do those fit in the kit? If they don't, those dollar store round tins, the larger one fits nicely at the bottom of $5 cup, and it looks like they'd be the right height to support the new pot. I use those with a tape wrap to make them nearly water tight to carry my brew kit and a light, which lifts a Nalgene so its easier to get out of some of my pouches.

Good cook set.

Im using the third bag as my PFM34 pouch and edc bag.. I change the bungee cord with thicker and longer cord. And it fits the PFM34 nicely.. The main zip pouch can fits my S24 Ultra and nitecore NB10000..

The old one is still available on Amazon. I suggest you buy 2 or 3 before they run out.

Yay! Stanley fixed something that wasn't broken. Rejoice for the fact that it's bigger? It can fit a nalgene bottle for some unfathomable reason? It will not nest in a $5 Walmart cup? Maybe you should hand it to that guy who hates Bud Light and let him have a go at it

Both sizes are "Currently Unavailable" on Amazon.

Sempre fantastici lavori , riciclando, TOP.❤

Ne ho realizzato uno, grazie dell'idea ❤

This is a great idea. I've been working on some ideas for a sealable turbo stove alternative to the trangia.

Ive got three of these and i use paper towels to silence the rattling but these are high quality pieces of kit

Very cool idea Cliff. I'm wondering how effective one of the thing fire blankets might be. If effective, it would probably be easier to store.

Holy cow, are they so expensive in the USA? I think I paid about 20 euros for mine 10 or 15 years ago and it's the stainless version. But of course I live in Finland, Sweden is our neighbouring country. There was a lot of Swedish military surplus for sale here real cheap back then. It's a great kit, though a little on the heavy side, very high quality and reliable.

I think pretty much anything you've done with the old Stanley cook kit you can do with the new one. The only noticeable difference is the size of the pots themselves, the new one being slightly larger in almost every dimension. The only problem you might have would be if you're nesting the pot inside something else, such as the $5 Ozark Trail SS cup from Wally World. In that case, because the bulge on the new pot is set lower than on the old pot, the new pot doesn't fit entirely inside the cup, but leaves about 1"+ of "dead space" in the bottom of the cup. Of course, you can always use that to store small items, such as a lighter, collapsible silverware, etc., so it's not a one-way trade-off.

I don't know why people love watching shit come out of a box and then watching the KZfaq fumble around with it, I'd rather see 2, 6 or 12 month reviews and know the pros and cons.

one thing i have done at times with the trangia burner stands when i have a oddball shape pot. that just loves too titter when put on the stand right up, is flip the stand over so you have a full ring around your flame insted of 3 point or 2 point contact. this new video just re-inforces what i said the other day. i'll stick with my older stanely pot. the only thing i can see is for stanley too widen the pot all the way down to the bottom. get rid of that narrowing at mid point.

Will the old Stanley fit in the new cook set ???

use the vector stove with the altoids stand, you may just have to do some Dremel work to the bolts, but good idea for tea or instant coffee. you can always boil another cup while you drink one.

You are missing one of the main advantages of the Stanley Adventure Cook Set! The butterfly handle stainless steel cup from Walmart (or Pathfinder) fits perfectly on the bottom making the two plastic cups unnecessary. The lid also fits the Walmart cup giving you two pots if desired. This frees up the entire interior of the pot. For example, it holds two small gas cans (when inverted) a mini Bic lighter, a small sponge, and the BRS Stove 3000T. You can also fit a flexible windscreen, Trangia stove, two-piece cross stand, small fuel bottle, cleaning sponge, and mini Bic lighter. I like the cups a lot but I put them with other camping kits. The advantage of having a metal cup that can double as a small cooking pot is too great to pass up.

Absolute beautiful, a true collectors item

Thanks for going to all the work of answering everyone’s questions! Super helpful…

Thanks for the update. Thats exactly the cup i keep with my kit. Seems like it can still nest to a limited degree. Might even still fit inside that case while stacked since it looks like about an inch in height difference.

the 1 thing i see is the sides are not drilled for hanging with a fish jaw opener over a fire. i have a older stanley with that option on mine. the other thing i do is, i put 2 of the 4 oz cans butane inside the pot. an have the coleman version of a msr pocket rocket stove sitting in the bag on top. did replace the plastic lid handle with a split ring handle. what i see with the new pot an trying to nest items together is a lot of wasted space.

👍👍👍 .. nice. Thanks.

OK so now I see the lids aren't comparable with one the other...shame.

Thanks for your ideas!

are the lids interchangeable?

Picked up two ozark trail 18 oz cups for this new cookset. An REI reviewer says they "fit perfect" as does the pot lid. If my cookset ever arrives by USPS(delayed) i'll test it out. Thanks for the videos.

I'm just trying to figure out which one the walnut is in ! Just joking , they're all nice and useful . Thanks for the demonstration.

I think ye bin watchin Tommy cooper too much

Great video. I appreciate it.

There is a “bottle pouch kit” out there in you-tube land where a gent like yourself sewed an elastic band to the lid of the bottle pouch to store the lid for the pathfinder cup and Stanley cup lid. It’s on my list to do.

Thanks for the thorough review of how a Cookset could be assembled with old and new. Stanley always part of my gear.

Why are all reviewers "nesting" a water bottle??? WHY!?!🤪

PLEASE!!! Slow down the fast and frantic hand movements. You are giving me motion sickness watching. Thanks for your thoughts on possibilities,

Can you fit a butane cartridge in like you could in the old one?

Interesting differences. One thing you might want to check would be if the new one still nests inside the GSI and/or Wall-mart SS cup. The older one could fit inside one of these cups, giving you two containers instead of just the one for the same space. I do like the new lid. I heard of issues with melting the older lid tab because it is plastic.

👍👍👍 .. nice overview with the options 😊. With the various stacking variations and the options regarding additional storage for small items in the spaces created .. a caution of I may please .. Small, loose items when removed and not used immediately, tend to 'run and hide' .. forever 😏. Little baggies made from whatever, come in handy to keep them from emigrating. Thanks for sharing .. take care ..

The new Stanley Gen 2 cook set lid doesn't not sit correctly on the GSI or Ozark Trail nesting cups unfortunately. I'm going to see if it fits and will nest with the Coghlan's 21oz cup. Update ! The 21oz cup works perfectly with the Gen 2 Stanley cook set 😀

Chinese junk. Period. Get GSI Cup or a Pathfinder cup or other no brand name stainless steel. It is much safer. Don't waste your money.

Does the old plastic cup fit inside the new one. That would give you the new pot, two insulated cups & a good amount of room inside for cooking items.

The old style looks better imo

Can’t have too many options when it comes to putting a cook kit together.

Thanks
