It is possible to use this with a canister stove. I have seen it done before, but you have to constantly check the canisters temperature. You can simply touch it with your hand, if it is warm to the touch remove the windscreen temporarly, and if you don't... well it will go BOOM!!!

No, it cannot. Using a heat reflector and/or windscreen with a canister-top stove can dangerously heat the canister and cause it to explode.

In addition, it is not tall enough to make a real difference with the pocket rocket. To increase efficiency with the PR, you might want to look into a MSR "XPD" heat exchanger. Very light, and very effective.
