Rain caps for wood stove chimneys

I don't use a rain cap nor do I see any need for one. I did experience an extreme rainstorm event once in late October (pineapple express)and did not notice any issues with the stovepipe. My buddies silnylon Kifaru shelter was misting pretty good to give you an idea of the force of the rain. As for pipe disassembly, I just pull it inside the shelter to take it apart after everything else is packed up and out of the way. One additional tip: Once a day when the stove is cold, detach from the pipe and take the stove outside to dispose (responsibly of course) of the ashes. These small stoves can get a little overwhelmed by ash buildup.
