Interesting, I too am retiring my 35 year old svea 123. I has served me well, but the valve has gone out on it. For my tour this year I'm bringing my
Snow Peak LiteMax that I use for backpacking. It's 1.9 ounces and TOO easy to use. Since I'm concerned about canister re-supply I'm also bringing a soda-can stove for backup. Big weight difference even with TWO stoves.
BTW: I do plan on recycling my old canisters wherever I purchase new ones.
