    Nice stove Sam!!!

    These clones seem to be great copies.

    They added a few neat touches I see.

    The indents on the lid so it stays on without the need for a strap. Nice!
    and a nice big rubber? key.
    Does the key get hot still?

    They copied the early version of the Optimus 99. which is interesting.

    Cheers,
    Jeff

    Nice Sam. The clones seem to work fine...uhm, as previously asked, does the key get hot that the rubber/plastic cover of the key sorta softens somehow?

    The rubber cover is hardened and doesn't get hot. It's a nice feature. It also comes off to reveal the tool for different parts of the stove.
