I understand this product is for gas burners, but I was wondering, will it would work with a backpacking alcohol stove?

I am not sure if it would ignite alcohol. It barely lights gas. It is just a spark, no flame.

I've never dealt with an alcohol stove. We use it on the gas burners on the stove in our RV. The spark comes out the tip of the lighter. So you need to aim the tip right on the burner. It took us a while to get the hang of it but it works fine.

To start with I find these childproof lighters very difficult to use because of the configuration of the switches. I only have experience with it on a propane stove. When you turn the stove knob on propane streams out and is ignited by the spark. I don't know how a alcohol stove works. The lighter probably would work if when you turn the knob on a alcohol stove a stream of propellant is emitted to be ignited by the spark.

It is not a reliable way to light a pool of liquid fuel as is usually done to pre-heat an alcohol stove. The spark is up inside the tube so there needs to be a flow of vapor to get in there. It might work if the shape of the stove confines the vapor above the pool but I would not count on it. It should work with a pressurized stove which produces a flow of cold vapor from the burner, like the traditional Coleman stove, but most alcohol stoves do not work that way.

I have a two burner Coleman white gas, never used it on one burner. I think it would depend on the btu output of the burner, you may find it cooked a little slow on one burner. However, I found that I never had to have 2 burners at full, or even 2/3 power to bake. With this long winded answer I will finally say buy it, should work fine you will find a level that will heat just right. Sticky buns with coffee in the morning makes it worth every cent.

I don't know the answer, however, the aroma from the burner makes me question the same thing. If you do purchase the burner, use it in a well ventilated space. Perhaps propane, or as you're asking "gas stove" might work. The flame is very small and the unit may not do well on a gas stove. Must be watched. Hope this helps.

We used in it the backcountry over an alcohol stove and had no problems with anything sticking or burning. I'm sure it would depend on what you were cooking to some extent but cleaning it after use was very easy.

It should work fine, as long as the single burner stove is large enough to hold it.

I'm sorry; but I don't feel that I can honest that question. I have only used this item with an older, traditional gas burner stove. On that stove, it worked beautifully!

The Titan works excellent with a variety of alcohol stoves. I'm not familiar with the Evernew Titanium model, but if it fits inside a 4" cylinder and is not more than 4" tall it should work very well. I have used a large Sterno can in mine and it works fantastic. It's a good option for ice camping where there is no wood. Honestly though, the Titan works so well with any wood or solid fuel that you may find you won't need the alcohol stove at all. There is another feature of the Titan that allows it to burn any liquid fuel, the ash pan is water tight and can hold about a cup of any liquid. It will burn intensely for about 15 min with a pan full of alcohol.

I have used it with a flat bottomed wok while camping and it did work. Now, as for a ring, it may or may not be stable enough for that. I would recommend surrounding it with bricks and setting the ring on that so the bottom of the wok is almost on the flame. If this does not work, go to your local Asian market and get a portable butane burner for $20-30. They are meant for woks. Not sure of the BTU rating of this little burner, but it is adequate for a wok.

I bought the Chinese one linked above, worked great in home tests, clogged the first time I took it into the field. I can't rely on it one bit.I don't want to carry four stoves (re: Stan in St Louistan) into the backcountry. I want to carry one, that will work, period. Is it worth $25 to have a failed stove halfway into a through hike? At least if the MSR stove had quit working, I would have been able to get it replaced.

I do not have the titan rather the smaller solo version and the solo alcohol burner works great with it. These stoves were designed with dual fuels on mind. I'm sure the titan would work fine with the solo alcohol burner.

I honestly don't know, but I don't see any reason it would not, especially if you are careful. It might burn up if you put it in a really HOT burner- even empty pans will! but if you use it on the low burner to make it even lower, I'd think it's be fine. My stove is gas, though, so I can't be positive.

I can't say for sure as I've only had it to 8500 ft, but I would think it would work fine with the iso/butane mix but not the straight butane which does not work as well in high or cold areas. Not so much the altitude though as the cold. Which is the reason I would probably sleep with either type of cannister in my sleeping bag at such high altitudes because it can get really cold that high, even in the middle of the summer, and you don't want a balky stove early in the morning.

Yes. I have used it with great success on a two burner propane stove as well as on a two burner propane stove in a popup camper. Although the stove inside the trailer has three burners, the stove just sits on one of them. We just got back from a camping trip, and I used the oven almost daily for biscuits and sweet rolls. The oven is a bit fussy in setting it up, but it works quite well.

As long as you are using a gas stove and the burner is off, I don't think you would have a problem. Try it once and pay close attention :) Bamboo is an amazing tough wood.

Dear customers,It can use it but we recommend the regular size Solo stove when you use the alcohol stove.Best Regards,

i have used it on my small pocket rocket stove, but the aluminum is thin and has burned a little. it might really burn in a regular fire. you also have to be careful with the handles, they cause the pan to tip when there's not a lot of food. in general it's fine if you need a small lightweight compact kit for backpacking.

i have used mine with camp fuel at 4000 ft works fine but it likes 100%denatured alcohol 90% works at 3000 ft
