The Primus EtaEspress must be pretty popular too because most the places I checked, that had lower prices, were sold out until the midldle of March.

Do they make an optional larger pot. The one I googled showed a 1.2 liter with the kit? I really like one that is close to 2 liters when I want to cook pasta and other high energy foods while on tour.

Just curious how you plan on using it. Should keep the fuel consumption down. Check out the primus 15.8 cannisters at REI or online. They will save you a TON of money on cannister fuel.

Too late since you bought one. However I will say the thing I like about canister stoves these days is simplicity. During a ride when I 'hole up' during rainstorms I have no problem firing up my Jetboil PCS. I grab 1 item and everything is there, everything!. Quickly assemble and fire it up. I also own a whisperlite, while an excellent stove requires more fiddling. In short the Jetboil is my main stove but if I were going cross country I might take the whisperlite instead.

PS: I think you will only need 1 canister for a 2 week trip. Everyone seems to worry about not finding a canister when they run out. They are so lite, just carry 2 and when one empties you have weeks to find another. That's what I do. Enjoy your new stove looks like a nice one.

They appear to make a couple larger pots but not sure if they would work with the wind screen in place.

Just a quick tip, the propane mix in the canister stoves will burn only the propane portion when it's in the low teens, temperature wise. So if you are in those conditions, warm up the canister before you cook. Put it inside your jacket for a while and don't set it into the snow. I think you will really like that stove.
