Right chaps i'm thinking about buying a lightweight titanium gas burner, to use as a light weight option with my titanium pan set, something like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRS-3000T...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649
and one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Picnic-Ca...05.m1851&_trkparms=aid=222007&algo=SIM.MBE&ao so i can use the cheap remote gas cartridges i use with my Trangia gas burner, cos i'm a cheap skate :whistle::rofl::lol:

Has anyone used either of these, give me any user feedback. I'll be mainly using it for quick brews and to boil water, them little ti gas burners are like little blow torches :)

Aye cheers mate, i just wouldn't mind a light weight gas burner setup :)

For £14.00 quid, i think i'll take a punt on em. Them Ti BRS gas burners seem to good reviews.
 
If your hiking a lot and trying to save weight....every little helps mate:thumbsup:

You could maybe stash a couple of cylinders close by the tower to save carry weight....they would last you a few trips if its a regular spot of yours:thumbsup:

Yep, what i'm thinking mate, i'm more geared up to the hiking an wildcamping. I love my trangia 27 with gas burner but it does weigh a bit around 1kg.

Sod it i've caved in :rofl: gonna order em :)
 
Good on you mate if it makes you happy and helps with your pleasure....why not!!

Like you say..."Only here once " ;):thumbsup:
 
I never use a gas burner myself....so would be interested to hear what you think of them when you try them out mate:thumbsup:

Perhaps you could add a review please?....pictures of course:D

If you want a world of lightened loads look at bike packing websites or mountain marathons. they are in the realms of cutting toothbrush handles in half to save grams!

I was subbed to one of the UL youtube channels some ridiculous lengths imho, as you say, saw a toothbrush in half but then drill holes in the remaining stub, soon unsubbed :D
