Yes, yes, I know, We're talking about heavy setups here, but I think I don't have much a choice.
Currently, I'm using the classic combo: - BRS3000T (26g) - FlatCatGear Ocelot Mini windscreen (29g) - Toaks 450ml cup (76g) For a total of 131g
The problem is that with the wind I often encounter here in the Italian Alps, the BRS is practically useless. On my last trip, I ended up relying almost entirely on a friend's stove.
I need a system that reliably boils water for dehydrated/freeze-dried meals and works in windy conditions.
Right now, I'm considering these options:
- Soto Windmaster 3-Flex (67g)
- FlatCatGear Ocelot (30g)
- FireMaple Petrel 600ml pot (162g) For a total of 259g ☠️
Or
- Jetboil Stash (201g)
- FlatCatGear Ocelot (3g) For a total of 204g
I'm still considering option 1, despite the weight, because I know it's a reliable system (I don't know how the Jetboil perform in windy conditions) and the Soto allows me to cook real food on resupply days (something the jetboil can't do since the lack of a flame regulator).
Both setups, with 600ml and 800ml respectively, could also be shared with another person, effectively halving the weight carried and bringing me closer to my current setup's weight.
What do you think? If you have any other suggestions or combinations, I'm open to ideas.
Thank you
