What's the difference?

Hi all,
I have a question,
apart from they were made at different times what is the difference between a svea 123 and a svea 123R?
is there a difference between the model?

Hi Archie

The 123 has a control valve & the 123R has a built in pricker like a 111 burner , have a look at the stoves in this link

Oh be careful, Junior Trangia Master. The Seva is, like a Trangia, a classic and ultra-dependable stove. It can tempt you into the white gasoline side of stoving.

Hi,
Thanks very much. I never knew that!

Hi Archie,

Another year has gone by & you're chasing a classic petrol stove. Should you happen to acquire one please ask your father to show you how to use it first. The fuel is more volatile & the lighting up procedure is different to your 17B.

Enjoy the summer with many more happy miles on your bike.

Best wishes=John.

If in doubt, brew up.

 

Yes, I have a few things to mention
1.on my 8th birthday Doc Mark sent me a svea 123.
2.Daddy has taught me the difference in the lighting procsess.
3.once I have shared the pics with Doc Mark I will also share them here.

Good Morning, Archie,

I'm so very glad that you and your Dad, with some possible help from our resident Good Guys at Newark, got your 123R up and running as it should!! Well done, and I'm very happy that that little SVEA has found a nice and welcoming home with you, as I'd hoped that it would!! I very much look forward to seeing it in action, and know it will offer you many years of faithful and fun service!! Have fun with your SVEA 123R, and God Bless!

Every Good Wish,
Doc

 

Hi Archie

Loved chatting with you at Newark again and you must be very special to be chatting with Doc, who is one of the Premier members of CCS.
