New cook stove on the market

My biggest issue with these systems is the inability to cook with them in a campfire. If I have a fire, I'm using it to cook to save fuel or slow simmer meals. I've also run out of fuel on several occasions. It's my number 1 reason I never switched to jet boil type stoves and stick with my titanium cook set. Anything that melts or burns doesn't make the cut. Boils water quickly, but doesn't have much functionality beyond that.

My thoughts exactly. MSRpocket rocket and titanium. I even run a solo stove lite sometimes, don’t even need a fuel canister.
 
My only real issue with this roughridge stove is the lid made of plastic and silicone. I think the pot itself would survive a campfire, but the lid would absolutely burn up.

I use a toaks 750ml nested in a toaks 1100ml. The 750 holds a small fuel canister and a soto windmaster and mini bic. I don't care much for the 750's lid because it doesn't seal tight, but the 1100 converts into a small pan and seals inside the pot lip and creates a tight seal. The lid creating a tight seal is a huge factor with fast boils and minimizing evaporation. I keep it in a waterproof bucket container I took off a GSI Halulite Microdualist. I wish they sold those separate, because it's extremely useful as a sink or hauling around dirty water.

I usually carry a really small titanium firebox around 3oz. I try to use wood fire whenever possible so it's usually worth the weight outside of day hunts or back at camp.

The system as a whole is around 1lb + firebox, but totally worth the weight. I can pull out just the 750ml and tie it in a bandana if I need to drop weight. Versatility and durability is super important to me. Maybe something to consider for future iterations.
