Glad to hear that yours works well. Since I went to the effort to replace the battery holder, I will clean up the burners and see if that helps. I wonder if my regulator is allowing a bit too much pressure and causing the problem. On high, the gas comes out forcefully enough that part of the flame blows itself out when lighting if I'm not careful. I'll fiddle with it next time I'm aboard.
