Make sure that whichever stove you buy nests in your pot.
Dunno, I've only used the new version. I wouldn't liken the flame to a flame thrower, but I don't have to wait much before soup is on either.
With 16 oz of unleaded premium costing $0.40 with no packaging and 32 oz of Coleman camp fuel costing $12.00 with packaging that could be but probably won't be recycled, I'd go with the former. Besides, I've never been able to give away camp fuel in the front of the store where I bought it and I won't leave it, like I would unwanted bottled water. PITA.
