I picked up a BRS 3000T last week from Amazon for $14 and I really like it. Incredibly light and compact, good flame adjustability from simmer to SR-71 full afterburners. Gearbest.com has a better price at $11.

I just bought two BRS 3000T stoves from Gearbest for slightly less than $22 with free shipping. Coupled with the burner rings I got from Gary and the Jetboil .8 litre ti-pot, I'll have a pretty light and efficient setup.

Is it possible to purchase just the Jetboil Ti pot? I did a quick search last night, but could only find the complete system. I have the Sol and recently purchased the low profile burner through Ruta Locura. I'd like to lighten the load a bit more by using the Ti pot if it makes sense based on weight differences (between Sol and Ti) and cost.

Thanks for providing the links to the Ti pot. It seems there isn't much difference in weight between the Ti and AL versions, unless I'm missing something. Not sure it makes sense to spend $63 to save an ounce.

Listed weight for Ti = 6.3 oz
Listed weight for Al = 10.2 oz

Ti cup is about $20 more than the Aluminum at Backcountry.com

So, Ti is more expensive, but you are saving about 4 oz overall.
