Is a heat exchanger pot worth the weight?

[John RB]

Roger, i couldn’t find that pot on ebay. Is there a way to share (within forum rules) the seller or at least keywords that would help me find it?

Because some miserable ratbag using the name geppotronico managed to hack into the system and splat around in the database. He has been removed, but his actions have yet to be dealt with.
I have unreported all the postings in this thread, but it took a while.

Sigh

that pot on ebay
Dan bought them, not me. I suspect they may have been a ‘disposal’ sale as they were quite cheap. This one may be more or less the same:

A search for ‘heat exchanger pot’ on ebay will bring up lots of them, often ‘Fire Maple’, and mostly dearer.

There are also a couple under ‘hard anodised pot’, but watch out for the cost of shipping from a USA vendor.

Thank you Roger.

In your opinion, would this it well with a Soto Windmaster?

[Chris FormyDuval]

Give me some criteria and I’ll run a test for you this week. It’s also available with Olicamp branding https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Olicamp-XTS-1L-Hard-Anodized-Aluminum-Pot-Heat-Transfer-System-Backpacking/362397617268?epid=1557506730&hash=item546094cc74:g:F0kAAOSwQZdgIGq2

The only problem with putting HX pot A on stove B is whether the pot supports mesh with the cover ring on the underside of the pot. You do NOT want the risk of the pot supports getting tangled up with the ring when you lift the pot up. Flames and hot metal going in unexpected directions.

Here are a couple shots with the windmaster.

Oooh nice, that looks its great – with the 4 prong one, if my eyes don’t deceive me.

Chris have you found the combination with the windmaster to be a good one in wind/heat exchange, given the rep the windmaster has with “regular” pots?

[Chris FormyDuval]

Haven’t actually used that combination yet. I can try with a little fan and let you know.
