Thanks so much for answering my question above. It sounds like the main issue might be that you can't adjust the heat in the same way you can gas, so there'd be a bit of a learning curve figuring out how many heat cubes equate to what temp. That's fine though. I do have another question (sorry). When using gas, this obviously provides instant heat. I've read varying info online that the Cobb takes anywhere from a few minutes to 20 minutes to heat up. Can you advise what might be the average heat up time you'd expect? I wouldn't mind waiting a few minutes for heat but sometimes I'm in a bit of a hurry, so waiting 20 minutes would be pushing it!

Hi, I'm thinking of buying a secondhand Cobb premier (I can see they're out of stock on your site) and some new accessories from you guys to go with it: frying pan, wok, maybe bread tin I'm wondering if I could use the cobb as my only or primary camping stove (I would have an alternate means of boiling water) or if you think it wouldn't really be suited to that (if not, why?). I'm looking for something that negates the need for big gas bottles or disposable canisters. In a perfect world I'd also love to be able to use a normal saucepan on it so i could also utilise my thermal cooker saucepan. I don't cook meat so it would mostly be used for veggies, as a fry pan and maybe curries etc in the wok. Interested to hear your thoughts.
