Thx, I've been using my 123 as my main stove continuously for over 35 years. I like how it throttles down for a simmer. Your video is delightfully honest and will provoke me to get a similar set-up
I bought a Svea 123 in San Francisco in 1972 for $9. Didn’t like it much so I gave it away and went to canister stoves and then alcohol stoves. Now back to canister stoves because of fire restrictions in Northern California.
Nice Svea hack I have done a similar hack with the Stanley Cookset with a Trangia knock off meths burner fits inside the cookset , also at least 700mls Very light and compact ., would the Svea with that heat exchanger be faster than the Trangia ? Might be a cool little experiment? I do have a knock off Jet boil and its super fast , lives in my work vehicle.
Hi Al. I do not own a jet boil. Google says 2.5min.. this is not far off that once primed. I guess you could put the pot on while it was priming to save a bit of time
