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
