I use a windscreen that goes about 2/3 of the way around my canister stove. This blocks the wind without overheating the canister. I also feel the canister frequently during stove use to make sure it isn't getting hot. An exploding canister could ruin your day! eek

As with everything else, a test at home before leaving is desirable. On the patio, not in the house!
