Trangia is a good unit. I have two of them in the gear.
Most would consider it a bit heavy if you carry the whole works.
I have been known to carry just the burner and fuel and make a trivet from three rocks for the pot.
For that matter I have been known to carry just a bottle of alcohol.
I carry a can of tuna for my first meal on the trail and wash the can, then punch holes all around the top with a church key or an SAK or whatever I have.
A good splash of alcohol (or hand sanitizer) in the tuna can and light it, then sit my tin billy on top and I have a stove for the trip and have actually reduced my pack weight by the contents of the can.
