@Primal-Understanding Yes, they will ship when we get our first round of inventory. We will send you an email to get all your shipping info.

We do have to go through and verify each email first. Unfortunately, we have been getting a lot of spam and duplicate emails with different names.

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.

I chunk all the plastic/ silicone lids and use a pie pan cut to form a lid that can be sealed.. lighter, fire "proof" and reusable.

Got a photo? I'd love to see it.

I had a chance to check these out at the Expo last weekend and was impressed with what they are building. The ignitor jumped out to me as being robust, securely tucked into the body of the stove, and easy to manipulate. My current stove has an "ok" ignitor and this one seems nicer.

I also like that the wind screen is removable. When I'm using a hot tent setup in late season I will melt snow with my stove pot on the tent stove to save fuel. The built-in wind screen creates an air gap and slows down the process. Removing it would help the process immensely by increasing surface contact.

I stopped by to see it firsthand also. I was impressed enough to pre-order.

I like the ability to take the screen off, and partly for the ability to set on the side of a fire. I like your thoughts on the ability to put it on a hot tent stove. With the built in fuel regulator it will be interesting to see how much longer a canister lasts.

I liked the igniter and the ability to turn the flame down to more of a simmer. The couple of Jetboils I've owned the ignitors always broke fairly quickly. The MSR Windburner I currenty use, IMO, is a better product than Jetboil, and I have to use a Bic to light it.

It's a small thing, but the water marks for measuring are bold and very easy for my eyes to see. I like how tight the lid fits. We'll see if that lasts with long use.

The Windburner is anywhere from $189-199. So it's $50 more for a lighter setup (5oz lighter than the MSR), a little more flexibility in using the pot, and it looks like a more efficient stove. And the Neville's are passionate hunters. Chris spent longer than he needed talking with me.
