Perfect match for (nearly) 1 L water boiling with Pocket Rocket Deluxe!
Works perfectly with pocketrocket deluxe! Better than jetboil minimo, half the weight with PRD and more versatile. Heats and cools crazy fast. The pot can actually do almost 1 L if you go past their line, but do not boil it will overflow! I can do 2 people 16oz each for tea if I fill to near the top and don’t go past 200F with careful attention. Almost didn’t get because it was a bit small, but if you don’t need exactly boiling but need around 1 L this can work perfectly. The opening for 3 fins for the PRD fit perfect and make it stable and good against wind and insanely fast boil. Be sure to boil 2 pots at full heat and dump to get rid of any chemicals etc before using, you never know.

Light Weight. Works great. Good price.
I bought this pot along with the FireMaple Greenleaf 2 stove for my hiking adventures. Tried it out this last weekend and it worked better than expected (really fast to boil).I bought this because I liked the small form factor compared to some of the fancier “heat transfer fin” systems out. The nice thing is that the three slots on the bottom aligned perfectly with the Fire-Maple Greenleaf 2 stove creating a “semi-locked-in” connection to the stove support arms. Maybe not as solid as a connection as those fancy twist-lock camp stove solutions, but much better than just balancing the pot on top of the stove. However, it is critical that you mate this pot with a stove that has three support arms that align with the slots in the heat distribution fins. If you don’t, you’ll lose some level of stability and probably a lot of efficiency as well.I found the fluid level markings on the inside of the pot a little hard to see/read, but I think that’s somewhat common, and I obviously prefer them to no marks at all. I liked the flip-over handle much more than the the dual-swing handles of other pots, as it provides a better grip/control for my big hands, AND the handle flips over the top of the pot to lock the lid down during travel.Overall, I can highly recommend getting this pot, as long as you have a three support arm stove.Well done, Fire-Maple.

Great upgrade to my cook system
I would give this more than 5 stars. Super-light weight, handle stays cool. The notches fit my MSR stove perfectly and make it SO much more stable.Most of all, it blocks a lot of breeze. I haven’t tried it in a gale, but I’m normal breezes, it boils about 30% faster than my MSR aluminum pot.

A Great Compromise for Light Backpackers
It’s heavier than a simple pot and windscreen setup, but with any wind, it’s more efficient and able to withstand higher winds better. For an ultralighter, the extra fuel is likely going to be less weight to carry than the extra weight of this pot’s heat exchanger. But if you don’t want to spend too much time planning for all your trip’s likely parameters, this is a solution you can throw into you pack without any thought and still know that you’ll be light enough, efficient enough, and able to still cook in all but the windiest conditions. Check out Gear Skeptic on YT for efficiency reviews that include this pot. I used it on the Superior Hiking Trail in MN with a Soto Windmaster with the Triflex pot support. It worked so well that I’m thinking of bringing it on some winter hikes, even though it’s a bit on the small side for melting snow.

Fits well with Goshawk Era 2.0
This pot fits on Goshawk Era 2.0 and boils water fairly quickly. I could make Turkish coffee or cowboy coffee in it very quickly. The lid is loose and it is not very useful as a strainer; the design needs revision.The heat exchanger “absorbs” the flame, and the flame does not come outside to wrap around the pot. (A pot of the same diameter without a heat exchanger would be wrapped around with the blue flame.)The heat exchanger is efficient in absorbing heat, but it is also efficient in releasing the heat. After boiling, the liquid cools fairly quickly in the pot. That can be a pro or con, depending on the situation.I wanted to replace Jetboil knockoff that I got from Amazon with an alcohol fuel setup for day hikes where I only make a few cups of coffee at most. Canister fuel (isobutane, propane or mix) often make very very very slow leak while being stored, and while the leaked fuel itself is not enough to bother, the added odor for easy leak detection is very nasty and tenacious, ruining the cup of tea or coffee or anything else, because the odor adheres to every item in the same storage box. I thought alcohol fuel could solve that and simplify my pre-hike wash of everything. Plus, I could carry a small amount of fuel, which is also a plus.

nice pot but not quite tall enough for me
Lightweight, nice quality pot, but a 220g gas canister and pocket rocket will NOT fit, only room for the canister.

This FireMaple Petrel pot and Greenpeak stove are a good value
For a $20 stove, this FireMaple Greenpeak is a good value. At 83g/2.85oz, the stove is compact, sturdy and powerful. It is primarily steel, with a titanium valve. The stove attached/detatches from the isobutane fuel can with no audible release of fuel. Used with the FireMaple Petrel pot, it boiled 16oz of 70° water in 1 minute, 18 seconds, using 6g of fuel. The pot fits perfectly on the stove and is stable. The Petrel pot is 163g/5.7oz, and holds the 110g fuel can and stove easily. The pot is well made and the handle is sturdy, and locks closed over the lit for storage. Overall, the FireMaple Greenpeak stove and Petrel pot are a good value.

There are dozens of online reviews of this pot but itâs great. Likely cheaper ordering from them directly however
