hi ell
kettles do boil water quicker than an open pan
and yes trangias are better than cheapo you get what you pay for
but the cheap ones can be just as good.
Were the holes in your burner blocked with carbon ? or small crysals of meths
from the last time you used it as your stove had been stood it could just have been a case of dirt in the holes get a needle and gentle clean them out
i had a cheapo one and it did have a wind sheild you could alter like someone said earlier it might have been too windy
oh just had a thought the meths might have been a poor grade as well
if i remember correctly its not the meths that burns but the vapours hence why you have an almost invisble flame
hope you can sort it as they can be realy usefull stoves
