Anybody know if the handles on the pot or on the lid get hot? I'll be using this with a soda-can stove and a close-fitting windscreen.

On mine, I dipped the handles in plastidip a few times to build up an insulating coating. It helps quite a bit and it's holding up well so far after 15-20 uses with an alcohol stove.

well yeah, its all titanium and the same conductivity that makes it heat up transfer to the handles, get a pot holder, not a cloth one like granny has, but the two handled lever type.

I have this pot and find that usually no matter what stove setup I have (alcohol or canister) the handles and lid will get hot. The good thing though is that it only takes about 30 seconds for the handles to cool after it is off the burner seeing as titanium does not retain much heat. Best solution; use a hanky which can also be used inside the pot when done to reduce the noise of the canister/alcohol stove. Hope this helps.
