not entirely true, hence my statement that a bottom/topfire (like the midrange/premix) can be made to run on a pedal....you just need to add some plumbing.

I don't understand what you're saying about the Bethlehem or gas oxy. Gas and oxy are two separate things. You can use tanked or a concentrator for your oxy and propane or natural gas as your gas source with a Bravo.
I'm not aware of the Midrange being made as a 4-stud, but if there is such a version, I assume you could use a pedal to run the larger fire.
There are also many other options if you want a torch that will work with a pedal (4 stud GTT Phantom or Carlisle Hellcat or CC, for example).
