Does the helios burner also work with the existing PCS & GCS pots - is the fluxring size the same? I like the cold weather performance & better stability - but would also like the flexibility to use the smaller pots for overnights and single cooking. e.g. I have been using the GCS pot with a white gas stove for exactly these reasons...

I have the GCS, and just by looking at the Helios, I would think that the major advantage over the GCS would be the stability. The GCS can be a bit top-heavy, especially w/ a regular 9 cup coffee pot on it.
