Default GTT Phantom or Cheetah?

I like the GTT line of torches and love the Lynx.

Go straight up to the phantom or to the Cheetah?

The Cheetah is a 13 jet all at once.

The phantom has an independent inner and an outer fire 7 jets with 15 outer.

Myself I want the 2 stage torch in the future so I can use a foot pedal to heat up the work all over at once.

Jump right up to the mirage. It is definitely the workhorse of the triple mix line.

If you're already on a Lynx, moving to the Phantom would be the best choice. Actually, even if you don't have a Lynx, the Phantom is a better choice than the Cheetah. More versatility, better on oxy. You only need to kick on the outer flame when you really need it.
