Is the BRS-3000T good for ultralight backpacking?

Yes. At about 25 g it is one of the lightest canister stoves available, and it folds to pocket size. It is best for solo boiling, not for cooking for a group.

What fuel does it use?

It runs on butane gas canisters that screw onto the threaded valve. It does not work with liquid fuel or non-threaded canisters.

Does it have a built-in igniter?

No. You need a lighter or match to light it.

How stable is it with a pot?

The pot support is small and narrow. It handles a small solo pot or mug, but larger pots are tippy, especially on uneven ground.

How does it compare with a Jetboil or a PocketRocket?

It is far lighter than a Jetboil system and lighter than most MSR PocketRocket models, but it gives up stability, wind protection and integrated cooking. Choose it when weight matters more than convenience.

The stove itself. Canisters, igniter and carrying case are not included.

Our take on the 25g Mini Pocket One-Piece Folding Gas Stove BRS-3000T 2700W

The BRS-3000T is a one-piece folding canister stove that weighs about 25 g, making it one of the lightest gas stoves sold. It screws onto a butane canister, opens into a small three-arm burner, and folds down to roughly the size of a thumb. Output is rated at 2700 W with about 140 g/h of gas use, so it boils water quickly for its size. It suits ultralight backpackers and fast-and-light campers who count every gram; it trades stability and wind resistance for that weight, so it is a poor fit for large pots or group cooking.
