Ok...I'll chime in here. When I started caving we would borrow old Just Rites from the Ball State U's geology department cache. Once we had refurbished a few of them (they were in terrible need of a little TLC) they were great. Later on I bought a Premier and it served me quite well untill I went electric and sold it.
At about the same time I bought a Butterfly and it never worked right. Always spitting, sputtering and leaking somewhere no mater what I tried. After some twenty years, I still own it thinking I'll use it for a hood ornament on my vehicle sometime.
My limited experience puts the old Just Rite first with the Premier comming in at a close second. I sure wish I coulda kept one of those Just Rites!
