Really good set! Thanks for showing Only thing I would suggest is to place the burner in a plastic bag when it's inside the kettle.. any moisture will cause corrosion when brass & aluminum are in contact.
I ditched the kettle to fit a small gas container, alcohol burner, gasburner, extra collapsible tripod for the alcohol burner, grip, lighter and a cleaning sponge into the small pot. Still need to pack extra gas and alcohol seperately though… 😅
Thank you! I'm delighted with the way it works. I used a plasma cutter to cut the circle to the right size and then drilled and tapered the holes with a drill press.
Great package thank you, many useful additions. The billy pot is indispensable and I also like the addition of the largest 240mm frying pan, hadn't seen that done before and sure to come in handy. 👍
I enjoyed watching your video, nice set up. I have a thrift store cake pan that I was planning to make a simmer plate from. I was going to make one shaped like the Trangia pot stand so it would fit in both the 25 and 27, but may look for another pan to make a round one like yours. You could add a Trangia triangle for an additional pot stand and burner to allow cooking more than one thing at a time.
Great points - I have two firebox stoves (which I always have with me), both of which can accept a trangia burner, so I might just bring an extra burner. Thanks for the push!!
Hi. I usually thread the strap through the attachment points on each side of the billy pot. It’s a tight fit but no chance for the strap to lose the grip around the frying pan.
I assume that is the trangia 25 set. And you said the 4.5 billy pot. Would you be willing to link the correct set, billy, and large fry pan you placed on the bottom?
Let's see... the frypan came direct from Trangia and is Frypan 725-24. The Billy pot came from Varuste.net, a company in Finland. And the Trangia 25 set I have is the Trangia 25-0 and is available on Amazon. Thanks for watching!
👍 Very good description of a comprehensive cooking kit it probably works well for truck, car, or RV camping. Would be too large for me to use backpacking. However, I am not a fan of aluminum cooking gear; stainless steel would probably be too heavy for this extensive kit and titanium would probably make it price prohibitive.
@@DansTrangia Thank you for the support on the aluminum. I have become very opinionated (perhaps too opinionated) on this subject in my old age. At 73 I can say that during my pre-college youth most (if not all) of my meals were prepared using aluminum cookware. And, probably many meals after that by restaurant kitchens. Is the damage already done? Have I been able to reverse any potential damage by trying my best to avoid aluminum cookware over the last 30+/- years? 🤷🏻♂️
Can you not just use the homemade aluminium plate for a small pot stand instead of the trangia one? P .s how's the new frying pan getting on, i have one on my wish list. Thanks
I'm not sure what you mean, because I wasn't using the trangia pot stand. But yes, you could use them interchangeably. The fry pan has been great! Quite satisfied.
Thats from Trangia, as well... weirdly enough, they seem to only make it with a non-stick coating, as of now. Anyone got a clue why? I dont see the purpose in a non-stick pot lid...
I also don’t understand why they are non-stick. But they are actually quite handy if you want to go light - you can just grab a pot plus lid and fill them with a Trangia Triangle and the burner you wish to use (spirit, gas or gel/tab). I have the smallest one that fit the 1 liter pots of the T27 and with the help of the lid I have a really handy mini-ish Tragia.
CAMPSAVERS sells the Upper and Lower pieces for the Trangia separately. They have a good lineup of Trangia products. Also, for car camping you can use a Cast Iron Trivet on the top windscreen for use with non-Trangia cookware. That's great for use with a Dutch Oven too.

I didn’t know that -thanks! I used to use that yellow bag but it blew away… :)
Great set! Also, putting the stove in a bag, it'll hopefully save any leaks from getting ethanol inside your kettle.
@@DansTrangia
Trangia actually sells those yellow plastic stove bags on their website

Need to make me a simmer plate like that. Definitely like that

Best set up i years!!! Bests regards from a Venezuelan viewer in Panama!
Thanks so much for watching. Would love to see both Venezuela and Panama someday.
@@DansTrangia well if you come to Panama let me know in advance!

That's a great idea!
Arno utility straps from Amazon are very similar to the Trangia straps. They come in a variety of lengths.
Yes, these have been suggested to me - if I don't like this setup, I"ll definitely pick one up. Thanks for watching!
Trangia straps are in fact made by Arno
NIce set up.
Glad you think so!
Hi, where can I get a simmer ring? That’s pretty cool

@@DansTrangia thank you good sir.
I guess the burner needs to be in a plastic bag. The 2 metals otherwise corrode the pot.

Two frypans two pots one kettle and one billy. ONE burner.
Good point! I always have a second one (usually primus liquid fuel) as a backup.
Be nice if the non stick ones were stainless clad instead.
I think they are trying to stay in the backpacking weight range; at least, that's my guess. Thanks for watching
What’s that lid you said fits both of the smaller pots?
Thats from Trangia, as well... weirdly enough, they seem to only make it with a non-stick coating, as of now. Anyone got a clue why? I dont see the purpose in a non-stick pot lid...

Strange - mine is just bare aluminum.
@@DansTrangia It seems that the lids to the Tundra series are made of non-stick and the rest of uncoated UL aluminium.
@@X3RUBIMbecause their part of a set called TUNDRA which is only available in nonstick…
Does anybody out there know where I can buy just the top and bottom windscreen
Check the Trangia site - I bet they will sell them separately
Trangia sells all parts separately.
CAMPSAVERS sells the Upper and Lower pieces for the Trangia separately. They have a good lineup of Trangia products. Also, for car camping you can use a Cast Iron Trivet on the top windscreen for use with non-Trangia cookware. That's great for use with a Dutch Oven too.
Whats the width of the strap
