Thanks Sheila! I'm running my propane at 4.5psi by my regulator and my oxy is turned all the way up on the concentrator. I usually work with candles that are about 1/4" long with a small amount of yellow at the tip. If I turn the oxy up from there for a more oxy rich, higher heat flame, or just to get a finer tip on my flame, it will work for a bit, and then I'll get long yellow candles coming out - I think the torch is consuming the oxygen faster than the oxycon can produce it. I would think that if the Crickett is designed to run on less oxygen in the first place, this might not be such a problem.
