Chimney with top carrier, bottom base, coupler weighs 16 ounces out of the total 26. I can make an effort to take that weight down useing aluminum to maybe 10 ounces if the 6 ounces extra is going to make me to tired.

I would like to compare that with what you carry for just cooking no heat. For cooking outside in whatever weather.

What does your stove, windscreen and fuel weigh for a weeks trip?
