Hi, I use an evenernew ECA 266R 500ml pot when solo hiking, it is the right size for me but the bottom is narrow ( diameter of the flat part is 8cm= a little more than 3 inches)
i was looking at the pocket rocket deluxe, but i am afraid that it would not be stable, what is the diameter inside the pot supports ?
Its to replace a gnat that was adequate with 5cm burner / and 5cm inside diameter for pot support.
Otherwise i was thinking of a soto windmaster as the pot supports are closer to the burner, but i dont really like the separate support? any other good options ?
Thanks
Frederic

Nov 12, 2019 at 3:18 pm #3618318+1 Soto Windmaster with the tri-flex support. Maybe I’ll misplace it someday – that would be the concern for me, but it is easy to install and I feel as good or better than the arms that pivot up and down on say my old Snow Peak Gigapower. I can’t the Soto give it a long term review, but I am totally happy after a few nights out and love the wind protection it provides.
Snow Peak LiteMax has very close supports. If you are looking at the Windmaster then it seems you are closer to this than say a BSR or Etekcity. None of these will give the wind protection of the Soto.

Nov 13, 2019 at 2:03 pm #3618475I was hesitating about the BRS, its (very) light but with a so so reputation and last time a stove failed me i had to eat rehydrated foot cold for a few days :)
At least now my hesitation is narrowed between the soto windmaster and the BRS :)
Nov 13, 2019 at 2:53 pm #3618482Many here on this forum have had good results with the BRS. Treat it as a super ultralight and you’ll be rewarded with a positive super light experience. Follow the instructions given by Roger, centered on appropriate size pot, 3/4 windscreen, valve on half power and canister on level surface. Purchase from BRS on Amazon, not ebay.

side note: I enjoyed Orleans, France back in 65 thru 68. Would like to go back and do the coastal trails. Vive La France!
