SN, is that a titanium wing stove? And where do you get the hexamine tabs? How do they compare to Esbit?
Yes, mine's a titanium wing stove, less than 1/2 oz. for $15 on campsaver. Steel or aluminum probably wouldn't weigh much more since its so small. I always use Esbit because its readily available. I think you can get off-brand hexamine at an army surplus store or somewhere online. I read the generic hexamine doesn't last as long and it's more smelly. Fuel tabs are usually hexamine or perhaps trioxane. The stuff is a bit noxious and leaves residue on the bottom of my pot, but that's easy to work around. So worth it. It's so light and small I sometimes bring my Esbit setup on long day hikes to enjoy a Mtn House meal for lunch.
According to Wiki, Esbit is an acronym for Erich Schumms Brennstoff in Tablettenform, invented in 1936. It's a genericized trademark as it is used to refer to similar products made by other companies.
