I picked up one exactly like this 10 years ago. Tank and burner only and missing the legs and flame ring. Mine has a AU date code on the bottom...
Yep, you answered your own question. They are two totally different stoves without interchangeable parts.
I got my Juwel 41 on eBay. It was listed as a Juval lamp. I don't even remember how I was able to find it. Anyway, a $6 bid plus shipping and the...
