I have threatened many times to get one of those soda can stoves but never did.

I like the ease of the Cat Stove, but Yeah I think a tuna can would be better, thicker material plus it is larger diameter.

BUT I would probably just get a trangia stove, cause you can cap it off and leave any alcohol inside until next time.

But that would just be another piece of kit to haul around whereas if I just had a wood burner, much simpler and fuel wouldn't be a problem.

I use this adapter as well so that I can use the cheaper cartridges

I've used mine camping
It isn't as efficient as the MSR pocket rocket but it is good enough for my uses
