Unless you're doing a VERY long tour I think a full canister will comfortably last you the trip and you can dispose of responsibly when you get home. I get that point tho, but if you're doing that sort of extreme tour you probably have the carrying capacity to deal with it. The speed does annoy me when you're tired and have a reason to want a reasonably speedy departure or to get some food in your before the rain comes etc. Not tried the trangia triangle tho, might help. I mean, the answer is probably get both, you can brew up whilst making porridge and have a race to see whose system works better...

There's lots of videos on youtube of "which thing boils quicker" and I think it's basically Jetboil > MSR types > Trangia. I just thought I could make up a bit of the ground that the Trangia loses to the cart systems with a slightly heavier pot and more efficient heat xfer.
I've just unpacked the Trangia. Might spark it up shortly. Wish my eyebrows luck...

Yeah, I can understand that. But we were cooking slow anyway due to only have one pot so I wonder if boil time will annoy me that much? I also want to get one of those heat exchanger pots like I showed you that will reduce boil time quite substantially.
Last minute (as is the way with me) buying of canisters also problematic and what do you do when they're empty? They're like the cooking equivalent of CO2 carts that I'm keen to avoid if possible. The piezo starter and simplicity of your MSR thing was pretty trick though... damn it!
