Oh I forgot to come check back in.
The mini chimney holds the exact same amount of charcoal as one of the Weber charcoal baskets for the kettle grills:

If you use your kettle like I do and fire up a single basket to cook indirect, it's another handy use. The chimney lights the charcoal faster than lighting it in the basket.
I agree that if you already have a chimney and don't want to spend the extra cash, there's no point in buying this. But if you need a new one, or don't have a chimney yet but will only be cooking minion method, it's cheaper than the big chimney.
