Primus says: 

There is no better way to start a day in the outdoors than with a fresh cup of coffee or a nice cup of tea. The LiTech Kettle is made from hard anodized aluminum making it lightweight yet durable. Comes with a foldable handle, a lid and a storage bag. The LiTech Kettle is available in two sizes, 0.9 L and 1.5 L

Our Verdict

A low-profile anodised aluminium kettle, I’ve been using this to make a brew on the go if I’m doing a day hike, but I’ve been considering taking one as my primary cook system on longer multi-day hikes.  If I’m cooking at camp, I generally eat dehydrated meals, so I only need some boiling water.  The much wider base of a kettle, compared to more traditional cooking pots, and the kettle’s well-fitting lid means increased boil time and a reduced risk of spilling boiling water, as you can use the spout.

The 1.5L capacity means this kettle is perfect for two if used as a cooking system. The LiTech Coffee & Tea Kettle will fit a 110g gas canister and a small stove inside; I would put a cloth inside to protect the interior of the kettle and stop any rattling.
