New Damper Assembly - Damper2

Actually the difference is pretty minimal. You can break down the old damper by taking the butterfly and arrestor out and wrap it around the rolled pipe. This is effective. The new one, you can still wrap it around the pipe for storage, even with the butterfly in, it just extends the length of the cylinder by about 1.5 inches. If you take the butterfly out, it reduces it to about .5 inch of overage.

The butterfly is harder to remove, really due to the extra collar length so it takes a bit more wiggling. The spark arrestor is a lot harder to get out.

In my opinion, I would not mess with it, I would deal with the extra 1.5 inch of cylinder on my pipe. That is the simplest way. In reality you are increasing pack volume by CI by about 10 inches ((1.6 * 1.6 )* 3.14 * 1.5) . a couple minutes of fiddling, to save 10 CI, is not worth it to me. I'll take the simple functionality.

I would agree with you there. An inch or 2 extended is not going to make a big difference. Thanks again Kevin, you guys are always very helpful.

sorry for the dump question but,how the hell you keep the spark arrestor in place,i ordered a set of 2 with my tent,i installed into my stove pipe damper its stay in place but i am not 100% sure it will last.Are you just put in it or it hold on something??Of course its easy to take it off when you pack all of it...just asking,i want the best result and don't wanna burn my bt2

Did you get the damper 2 ? What damper are you using ? In our first damper, they are cut in a pie and held in by tension and rivet, and it does a decent job, in damper 2 , they have a cut to them and are seated in the bead of the damper.
