Backpacking Stove Efficiency, Part 4: Heat Exchanger Systems (HX Pots)
This video is Part 4 in a series on Backpacking Stove Efficiency. Considered here are Heat Exchangers (HX pots), with comparison of 7 different systems each at flame levels of Low, Medium, and High. HX systems are also compared to conventional titanium camp pots of varying diameters, with analysis of both fuel efficiency and weight efficiency. It is recommended that you watch them in order, as each video builds upon concepts introduced previously.
