Co and the Pocket Rocket?
Just packing now and looking at my TOAKS pot
There is a 4mm bump up in the middle of the pot, is that 4mm of extra clearance between the burner head and the actual bottom of the pot significant?
Also this is a second hand stove and it looks like the previous owner has drilled out the air intake holes to 6.5mm.
Not a stove I use often but this is the smallest and lightest stove I have available at the moment
“this is the smallest and lightest stove I have available at the moment”
$14 and an eBay account can remedy that.
The 4 mm helps – a little, but the Pocket Rocket is one of the worlds better-known bad stoves. It is too tall, has bendy pot supports (how big is your pot?) and it has a focused flame which can burn snow.
There are so many much better alternatives.
Cheers
