    My "passion" for Optimus lanterns spilled over to stoves with this acquisition. The only thing it needed was the NRV seat and spring to make it functional. A rub and buff made it pretty. This will boil a gallon of water in 9 minutes. The 207 burner will modulate down to a whisper. I now have a new user for "Kero Kooking".

    I just got one of these stoves that also has the regulated burner. However, mine is missing the inner and outer burner caps. I tried using a set of Primus caps I have on my Prince #5, but, alas, it didn't fit quite right.

    All it did was create a flame under the outer cap and turned the outer cap a bright orange.

    Any idea where I can get a couple of caps for this great stove, as well as some lead washers for the preheat cup and the riser?

    Thanks

    I just found a source for the burner caps I need, however she/Shirlene needs to know the diameters of the inner and outer burner caps before she can send them to me.

    Does anyone have this style regulated burner and can provide me with the diameter of the inner burner cap and the diameter of the outer burner cap.

    Thanks

    You can find regulating burners on eBay; a seller in the UK has some.
