Firelite Ti esbit wing combined with Supercat stove on 04/20/2011 22:13:15 MDT Print View

burn

I was trying to build a stable stand for my Supercat stove when I discovered it fits perfectly in the BPL Firelite Ti Wing stove. The Supercat is held in place by the esbit wing base and the inner support arms which fit in the Supercat's punch holes. The Supercat is flush with the top of the support arms so my MSR Titan kettle lies flat on both giving a even flame. Now I have a dual use alcohol or esbit stove for a total weight of 19 grams.I did grind a about 1/16 of an inch off the tip of the wing support arms to provide a flat stable surface for my MSR kettle. I also used a heart hole punch instead of round which seems to improve the burn (faster and less fuel) but I am not sure of the physics behind this (HaHa).

I want this.

I have the same Cat stove but now I want a new one with heart holes!

Its good to know the wing stove fits, its on my gear wishlist and would be a nice multi use item
