Moondog55 - I've had the FMS-117H "Blade 2" since October 2017. I didn't take it to NZ with me in January, but have used it since.
I have quite a few Fire Maple remote stoves now (my old FMS115 now retired and donated along), and in this design, I ended up getting the FMS-117T which I onsold after getting the FMS-117H, and the cheap FMS 117 clone I got 3 years back is still going strong
viewtopic.php?f=63&t=20780 I like these remote stoves for shorter squatter pots, which I have more of, rather than the tall thin pot styles.
Regarding my FMS-117H Blade 2, I took some photos and meant to do a review but forgot to get around to it. I've only taken it up above snowline once, but test it with inverted canisters, and with the "hairspray" canisters and adapter forcing a liquid gas through the stove.
The one thing I thought was a production error was the pre-heat tube which seems to be at an angle away from the stove burner. I will find my photos to better explain. I thought it might have been bent in transit, but it is apparently the way it was designed. The pre-heat tube does not sit perpendicular to the burner, and sits at what seems to be an awkward angle.
But despite this, it does work as advertised once the pre-heat tube is sufficiently heated - this took me about a minute with the liquid gas feed but it was not far below freezing. I haven't tested it enough to notice if the sputtering issues with the FMS118 also happens on the FMS117H.
