Jim, I am with you on the MicroRocket finer points and also the non-value of the separate ignition as I just can't see it being very useful for most who already carry a lighter etc.

Once the local gear shop gets these new MicroRocket stoves in stock, I will be purchasing one to test and see if it will become a permanent part of my main cook kit.
