I wonder if the base can be unscrewed from the burner? The Optimus website isn't very clear on this. Does any have one of these or know someone who does?

Refering to the picture shown above: No. It's darn small as is---the burner doesn't fold down like on the Crux. The arms on the burner do fold in and the green flame control also folds in. I love mine! DeeIt doesn't fold down like the Crux but it is slightly lighter, if that's any consolation.
