Default GTT Phoenix???

Anyone running one? What's the diff between it and the Phantom besides one port? I am assuming it would be about the same as a two stud Phantom correct? Also would two 15psi oxycon's be enough to power it? I was contemplating a 4 stud Phantom running the center fire off of two 8psi oxycon's and the outer ring on the two 15's. The only reason I'm even considering the Phoenix is it's about half the price of the Phantom. Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Donna

The Phoenix, DOES NOT HAVE A CENTER FIRE just the outer fire.
The Phantom has a lynx as it's center fire. with the same outer fire as the Phoenix.

Monkeythrowpoop (his real name is Ben, but I don't recall his last name) on GLDG had a Phoenix. He might have some action shots of it. He had a Lynx piggy-backed on top.

Well a Pheonix isn't just a phantom with a centerfire. I use both a phantom and phoenix. The body of the torch is the same. However the port spacing makes for a larger flame than the phantom can produce. Also the phoenix can have really lovely brushy flames unlike anything ive seen. I love both my phoenix and my phantom.




Im glad I hunted this thing down and didn't settle for a cheetah
Love this thing

Good luck finding another one id take a second one if there was one to find.
