Thanks for the report on all your testing! I'm curious about the weight of your new fave cookset. Texsport says the set weighs 2.2 lbs. I'd like to know the weight of just the 1.5L pot and lid. Could you oblige? I'm also curious why you chose the Omnifuel over the Optimus Nova, another all metal multi-fuel stove of the same weight. Thanks.
