I have a Giga Power titanium cannister stove which I have been entirely thrilled with. However, these home made little alcohol stoves have just caught my eye, especially the YACC.
Has anyone here compared those two specific stoves? I'm interested in knowing how they would compare weight wise over a 3-4 day period of boiling ~7 cups of water per day. By my armchair calculations, the YACC would be lighter over all. I just haven't proven this with actual tests as I figured someone here had probably already done that.
I have looked at this site..... http://www.thru-hiker.com/articles.asp?subcat=2&cid=57 ....but it didn't specify which cannister stove was used.
Thanks.
