As many of you know I am a Trangia tragic and always looking for new ways to keep the dream alive!
The burner Trangia offer is rather heavy so I ordered a Fire Maple 117T with a view to getting it to work in the Trangia Base.
The metal clip thing from the original Trangia gas burner was removed and fitted to the 117T after its legs had been removed, took about 5 mins. The burner ends up at the same height from the pot which is important. The original 117T weighs 98gm and the new one with the Trangia clip comes in at 90gm. This compares to the original Trangia burner being 175gm.
I know it isn't the lightest stove set up still but I cut nearly 100gm off the set up without too much bother and only about $70.
Boil time are the same with 500ml of water taking about 2min 30 sec.
