Product Information

If you use liquid fuel, make sure you empty it to the last drop, as there is always some surplus even when you think it is used up. If so, your best bet will be a stove that burns petrol instead, because you can get that every time you fill up your bike. First off, you always want to try and take back the used gas cylinder to the supplier for recycling. It’s possible that this question has already been answered but if it has I can’t find the question or response.

What’s the best kind of stove to use there (we’ll be riding down the west coast route north to south)?

These canisters are a bit heavy to carry around in a backpack but might be used for camping from a car or at a basecamp. But that’s not widely experienced, there’s no obvious consistency in which are the best/worst brands, and I don’t know of any reason that would be true (ultimately, they are just metal pots filled with gas). Is there any reason that I can’t use smaller screw cannisters with a stove that claims it can only run on large refilable cylinders?

However, if you’re travelling through different countries or out in the middle of nowhere, you can’t always find screw-on gas canisters. A used gas cylinder is not like other types of waste that you may see on a camping trip and think to just casually dispose of into the bushes. Your article also helped me figure out where to get certain systems, so that was very helpful, thank you!Is there a adaptor which allows me to make the the party grill connect with a larger Canister as the campingaz R907? Just bought a Camping Gaz Twister, so at least the older kids can use it when they go camping (only had BBQ) and said excited about having bacon breakfast and a hot drink.

Hi Tim, I have an old Campingaz heater that uses the pierceable canisters that are hard to find in Canada. However, most camping gas cylinder manufacturers have good reputations and decades of experience creating these products. For what it’s worth, the aerosol-type canisters were very prevalent on my trip to southern Chile this year — they seem to be associated with the cheaper-looking stoves imported from China and elsewhere. I didn’t realize there would be an issue until after I received the setup, so I’ve spent an ungodly amount of time figuring out how to get around this situation. If you read the guide below and learn about the alternatives, there are some tricks to get around the problem.They are small, red ¨Gaskartuche¨ gross weight 290 grams (Butane 180 grams) Have tried recycling centres and outlets to retun them. The liquid fuel used for outdoor camping stoves is usually the same as the mixture you find in lighters. g. stove model, windshield, heat reflector, heat exchangers on the pots) is a much bigger factor than the canister type.

If, by any chance, I’ve somehow misunderstood the information above and you know of a solution, please do let me know. These are some of the most ethical and sustainable courses of action you can take to get rid of your used gas canister. Whether you're into wild camping, motorcycle camping or you're just a hiker going on a day trip, the following is common knowledge.

That is why Jetboil developed the Crunchit- a handy recycling tool that will empty their fuel canisters. Identical to screw-on canister except without the thread on the valve (meaning they’re incompatible with each other). When gas canisters (which actually contain liquid, not gas) get cold, the liquid sinks to the bottom of the canister. This is perfect for those that love camping all year round as you can rest assured your gas will continue to work, even on the coldest of winter evenings. If it burns better after you’ve done those things, even if only briefly, then it’s probably the cold.
