First time with Optimus after always having MSR stoves. Have to say the engineering on this is much superior to MSR. It's more robust and better designed. Heat output on petrol better than my old dragonfly too. Easy to prime on petrol, no flare. Pump fits the MSR bottle so I didn't need to replace that.
Good quality strong structure suitable using in the windy day
Only used it for a few days so far but very happy.
Good control of flame.
Workers better with white gas as a primer (just 2mil) than with kerosene and runs better on kerosene than diesel but perfectly fine with diesel. Gas canisters work well with it as well. Have not tried other fuels.
