FWIW my limited field experiments with the Trangia include a little folding tripod stand/pot holder, and an MSR foil windscreen (because it's handy). IIRC I used a 1.3L Evernew pan and lid, but that could have been different.

I extinguish the flame by shoving in the flappy disc of the flame-control top.

Completely agree the flame's invisibility is a big accident potential. Love the silence and lack of moving parts.

The windscreen was my potholder. I only use a 2 cup pot, so it's not too heavy - that is until it melted. The design worked well until then. I had a backup stove, so it wasn't a problem.

I'm hoping someone has an efficient design that works in windy conditions.
