Tatonka Stainless Steel flame adjuster

[Humpback]

Does anyone have any practical experience of using the Tatonka flame adjuster for a meths stove with the Trangia burner. Specifically does the one fit on the other? I have plenty of Trangia burners but want better simmer control which the Tatonka meths burner might offer.

Why not try drilling some holes in a simmer ring you already have and see how it works?

Have done not successful.

That might tell you all you need to know.

The Esbit simmer ringer from their meths burner is a lot better than the Trangia one and fits. It might be worth giving it a try.

Thanks Tiley I'll see if I can locate one

That's the one I have just changed over to.

Simple idea, put a fold out handle on the lid so you can drop it on to a burning stove easier.

So much better.

The Tatonka one fits the Army trangia - the big brother of the civvy one, found in the Army Trangia kits.

I've also seen some posts on youtube with people cutting off the bottom of coke can, and drilling holes in it - different sizes for different simmering. Give it a try and report back!
