I've been running a similar set up for years, and it's never let me down...

I think you'll have to buy a bottle to go with it though :-\

Not cheap, but well worth it :)

Yeah if you got all the stuff in both links yes  :)

You can use hexamine blocks in the burner, and as for molle, no I'm pretty sure it's for PLCE style webbing  :-\

ok its not a big job to modify it to molle compatible.ive used those bits,british ones tend to create smoke and dye everything black but those german ones i have got with pocket stoves are great.BUt i think the gel has more kick.

anyways i might just get a british belt and collect some useful pouches to it if i find some ok priced  seller from uk.
i already have golok in british dpm sheath.i think ill only need pouches for multi and one or two utility pouches,large  and small.ive seen those harnesses with two about 10 litre capacity pouches from the rucksacks sides.

are those you linked,teflon coated?

Well it's probably the most expensive cup known to man :D

Seriously though it is a great bit of kit :), more often than not I use it suspended over a fire and cook in it, and in 6+ years it's still got 90% of the coating left, and is practically indestructable too :), I expect mine to out last me :)

+ Ray Mears takes his crusader all over the world, so if it's good enough for him, then it's good enough for me :)
