I see a potential issue here. It's not that Mass Drop is doing something wrong. I just know that tall thin pots can waste fuel.
Look at the photo with the pot on the stove. A lot of the flames are going to shoot out beyond the edges of the pot and be wasted. In terms of really getting the full amount of heating from the fuel you've packed in, a short, wide pot is always going to be better (unless you have something specialized like a Jetboil which is precisely sized for its custom burner and has a heat exchanger).
The LiteMax has a pretty wide flame pattern. You'd really have to turn down the flame to prevent it from spilling up the sides and going to waste.
I'm not necessarily saying don't buy this pot, but do be aware of the potential issue and match the stove to the pot. A stove with a narrower flame would work better with this pot.
