Optimus 199 bottom pot height?

I am finally getting around to build up my own Optimus 199.

It starts with an original bare burner head/tank:


Bit by bit I acquired the key with chain, a pump, a replication x-pattern pot support and a burner wind shield.
And a used Peak 1 aluminum cook set:

Now, what height should bottom part of the Peak 1 cook set have?

The exploded views of the 99 and 199 indicate that the sauce pan/lid are equal, part no. 2027
99: https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/no-99-exploded-view.136/
199: https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/no-199-exploded-view.139/

I measured the height of both my Optimus 99:

• The sauce pan is 58mm
• The bottom pan is 30mm
• Overall height is 80mm

The various catalogus state a total height of
80mm for the 99: https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/1980s-early-optimus-catalogue.10747/
100mm for the 199: https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/1980s-optimus-catalogue.10733/

That would mean there is a 20mm difference in bottom pan height.

Can anyone confirm the height of the bottom pan of a 199 is 50mm?

 

Hi @Brenneman. Perhaps this helps in your search for measurements:

The Coleman case top is a direct swap for an Op.99 case top, with no cutting or shaping required.

From this post:

I do not have access to my Op.99 at the moment so cannot give a depth for the lower case.

Thx Kerophile,

Yes it's a good replacement.
The Peak 1 top pot has approximately 4mm more depth.

 

Yes, the bottom part of the 199 is 50mm high.

 

Hi Dutchmike,

Thank you!
