I know Rutalocura doesn't make one for the short wide EV600. Are there any other cottage gear manufacturers that do custom CF work or are making pot lids for the 600? I know weight savings to cost is negligible, but it's just something I'd like to explore.

Also interested in possible cottage lids. I'd be more interested in a proper mini frypan lid apposed to carbon fiber but interested in all options.

Not CF, but Four Dog makes nice titanium lids. May or may not have something that fits your specific pot/frypan.

Any reason why you would want carbon fiber and not titanium? Just wondering as I have a titanium lid for that pot.

CF lids are lighter then titanium ones. On narrow pots the difference is small, but everything adds up. If it didn't, half of us wouldn't be here obsessing over tenths of an ounce or gram.

I only know of Ruta Locura so can't help with the OP question. Should have researched aftermarket options before you bought that pot with the heavy lid. Time to buy a different pot that has available options if you want to save that fraction of an ounce. :P

Have you thought about making your own lid out of a Turkey baking pan? I made one for the same pot you have and for the same reason, because I wanted something litter and it works graat! I've use the someone for almost two years and it has held up and works great!

In the meantime, use a piece of heavy duty foil. When your done with it, just fold it up and put it away.

I made a Titanium foil lid out of TiGoat foil that weighs .3oz as opposed to the .9oz stock lid. Would still prefer to have carbon fiber, but in the meantime this will work.

A carbon fiber lid would most likely weigh just as much as your titanium foil lid.
