yeah, the svea is a great stove. i was considering one for my main camping stove but decided to go with the Trangia 25-7. it doesn't burn as hot as white gas but as you know its bulletproof simple and will burn almost anything with alcohol. i usually use everclear 151 proof (highest available alcohol in calif.) even though its more expensive and doesn't seem to burn quite as hot as denatured alcohol i like using the food grade stuff. smells better, no toxic fumes, etc.
i was considering the small green heat cans only as an alternative to my esbit or a NuWick candle. it would only be for backup or a one night ultralight trip. come to think of it though, for that purpose i might be better off building a pepsi can alcohol stove. but then again, i'm a bit clumsy sometimes and don't really like unstable stoves that i can easily knock over. especially when they're filled with flammable liquid. <img src="/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Hi LED, that triangia is a nice little stove!!! How do you like the cookware that comes with it?
