It was a 111B with an extra 111T burner. Since the original burner is in bad shape, it is now a 111T. If the burner was an early model, will the...
So I bought a 111B off of ebay, and I got it for under $80 US. Not bad, except that it was pretty rusted inside the case, the tank dented and...
How hard is the valve to turn when the generator is removed? How about when you take the graphite packing out of the valve? You might just try...
What a neat stove!
Yep, that was the extent of knowledge that I had about them. I was wondering if anyone could elaborate...?
So what exactly was the problem with the 501s? What made them unreliable and dangerous? I know it had something to do with the weird generator,...
How about a Coleman Heatmaster or Handy Gas Plant? Too hot?
First, the Hiker+ is an Optimus 88, not a 111. :D Aa already said, this stove is nowhere near the quality of a 111. Steel tank, flimsy/finicky...
From the looks of it, it is almost exactly the same as the 412B stove I've seen. Same color, same tank, same burner, same legs. Do a search for...
Ooh, that is an old one! There should be a decal or stamped section right under the carry handle. It looks like my friend's 412B.
That is cool! Is it dated? What did you pay? It looks almost exactly the same as the 413C I picked up not too long ago. Edit: Looking at...
Ok, so Deider's post reminded me I haven't posted pics of this stove yet or reported back on the Annual Relic Run (4 day off road camp trip with...
Since this thread is so full of good basic information, does anyone have dates that each of the 111 models were produced? Also, which ones are...
Hi Bom Bom Bom Bom, 1. The orange does not go away with a pan on. And to tell the truth, I don't know that orange is really a problem. The...
Very nice! I think my 500 is my favorite stove. I dig that box and can't wait to see the manual.
Hello fellas, I got a couple of questions for ya about my Hiker+. I know it's not a Classic stove (yet), but I think the issues could be related...
Ok, so I bought it. :) The guy gave it to me for $15. He didn't notice it was any different than his other pile of newer 413X stoves and 425s....
So I walk into this pawn shop about a block from my house. I've never been in there before in the three years I've lived here. On the back...
That Handy Gas Plant is AWESOME. A little big (three gallons!), but I want one! I see theres a rusty one on ebay, but I think if I try to get...
The 533? I never would have guessed. I wonder what makes it so much hotter than others...
