HJ,

Another great review, but now about my second love -- then my first! I started with a 123 and kept it in my day bag for many years. It served me well many times, some when I really needed it. It was suppimented (certainly not replaced) by an XGK with the yellow and black pump. The XGK also served me well throughout the world, mostly on white gas (in AK and the south 48) but lots of avgas and jet fuel (there and lots of other places around the world). It was a savior more than once. It died at the hands of an air freight shipment where they appear to have used the crate as a spear target for the forklift forks. I hope that my new XGK EX will be as good a stove. Unfortunately, the 123 was also lost in transit. I guess I should stay home more - my wife would sure like it!

Thanks again,

Jerry
