That looks OK, But hopefully Aldi/Lidl will have their clones out again this summer, I think I paid about a fiver for my clone, no kettle though.

i got a lidl clone some yearsback the burner wasnt quite as good/effecient as the Trangia pots n and pans are ok tho

then again meths is a fairly low power fuel any way

I bought another burner to use with it if necessary, Got it from Lurch and it's stainless steel, just can't recall the name at the moment.

Is it Tatonka?

lol @ sportsdirect original price. £44 is ridiculous.

You can get these same exacts sets for about £11-15 in some places as various companies re-brand them. I cant remember of top of head teh places though as it was about a year back when I was first looking into getting a Trangia set. I ended up with 2 older trangia sets and one of the above sets, then flogged them all on again and got the real Trangia 27-6. I have since flogged the 27-6 aswell but think I'll get another one day.

I wouldnt worry about changingthe burner its not a great deal better and in my tests a shoe polish tin wit th meths poured in did just as well even the closed popcan stoves that geta little pressure dont improve much over that .
Meths isnt for making quick noisy brews any way or for lieht weight if over more than a couple of days
The Lidil priceits orth having one to try

Yep, that's the one... My memory isn't what it used to be
