Coleman Extra Value 6 x C500 Gas Cartridge (Pack of 6)

Product Information

However, most camping gas cylinder manufacturers have good reputations and decades of experience creating these products. If you want our personal recommendations we would gladly recommend Coleman: That’s an excellent idea. It’s really annoying when you get canisters that don’t fit inside your pans. The benefit of 70/30 butane/propane mix is that it increases a Coleman stove or lantern’s performance in lower temperatures. 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.

I’ve not been to west Africa but I suspect you won’t be able to reliably find camping gas on sale. 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. In truth, I think you’d pretty much reached the conclusion already: I don’t believe there are any adaptors or alternative fuel sources for Campingaz Bleuet style stoves. They are an old and very simple design that just isn’t compatible with the more modern (and safer) alternatives. Even fewer knew that there are several dual fuel stoves and handy little adaptors you can get for your camping stove that will allow it to use any type of gas. Hi Giaovanni, we cycled across Cambodia a couple of years ago but I think we mostly just bought food, because it was so cheap, rather than using our camping stove.I have 12 days to solve a problem. I use, and love, the Campingaz Bleuet stove and lamp. My son and I are flying from Pennsylvania to Utah & Yellowstone. USA air travel forbids us from transporting gaz canisters, and of course you can’t buy CV470 & 270 in the USA. Even the Post Office and FedEx Ground won’t ship them. From your previous questions, it doesn’t seem like there are adaptors, so I can use another fuel source that I could buy at my destination. The only other adaptor I’m aware of is for 16.4oz gas stoves, which allows you to use screw-on canisters: Greyhost gas adapter. Most gas cylinders can be recycled when you return them to your local tip. What happens here is the emptying of the bottle and removal of the valve for separate recycling. You should never dispose of your gas cylinder while outside camping in nature. Empty fuel canisters aren’t just regular rubbish that you can cast in the bin; they need to be properly recycled and taken care of. Plus, by doing this you keep the UK countryside clean and tidy. Very excited that you might be able to solve my 3-hour slog through the interweb. We have a US stove that is built to use the 16.4oz canisters as shown above. If I follow the link above for the different types of adaptors will the 16.4 adaptor shown allow me to use small UK style screw ones? ( ie ‘regular UK screw on canisters / lindal valve? This would be very exciting (and cost effective!) many thanks! Reply

We’re biking, and I considering trying to sneak the canisters in the bike box. Do you have any more rational suggestions? Reply This guide gives a simple explanation of the different types of camping gas available, which one you need for your camping stove and where you can find them.When gas canisters (which actually contain liquid, not gas) get cold, the liquid sinks to the bottom of the canister. You can test this by shaking the canister or warming it up (e.g. with your hands or down your top) before you use it. If it burns better after you’ve done those things, even if only briefly, then it’s probably the cold. I’m travelling in Africa next year with my lady, two up by motorbike. What’s the best kind of stove to use there (we’ll be riding down the west coast route north to south)? In the UK, empty gas cylinders are sometimes disposed of alongside regular household waste then sorted out for recycling. But before you do this to your old gas cylinder, it must be fully emptied. 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.

Please can you tell me of there is an alternative to the CV270 Campingaz canister for use with the Campingaz Bleuet CV270L lantern. The adaptor won’t work because of the canister shroud attached to the top half of the lantern. Reply Unfortunately, this is a limit that can easily be breached when it’s hot outside, so stowing away the cylinder in the boot of the car might be a good idea. Unlike putting it behind the windscreen, it is not exposed to direct sunlight here. Plus, I’ve included details of some little known adaptors that will allow you to use any gas cylinder on your camping stove and three stoves that will take more than type of canister. FYI, with more digging, I learned that small propane/butane canisters CAN be shipped, ground only, by the US Post. One post office here declined anyway, but I showed the policy to another, and they took it. Shipped to our first campground, and the ranger had the canisters waiting for us. It would be lovely and probably helpful if you could maybe help out how to match canisters with cookware, so we can maximize space-saving?I also did some research yesterday :-) It might be helpful about the canisters, that most small ones are 9cm diameter, however not all. There might be a difference between the UK, USA, and the rest of the world. However, for me, if Amazo says the pot is 9,4 cm I don’t believe the canister will fit, haha! I guess there is a lot of trial and error, I’m still on the lookout for a higher pot to fit small canister, smallest stove, and a lighter. And as the light ones are extremely expensive, one doesn’t want to test it… Finally, the stove set up (e.g. stove model, windshield, heat reflector, heat exchangers on the pots) is a much bigger factor than the canister type. Thanks for the comment. I’ve not used that stove or those canisters, but when I look up the Campingaz 400, it says it’s compatiable with the Campingaz R907 canister. Am I missing something? That looks like it is threaded to me. You can see an Easy-Clic fitting here: https://goo.gl/images/WpTU85

Is there a adaptor which allows me to make the the party grill connect with a larger Canister as the campingaz R907? Some people seem to think that certain brands give a more consistent flow and let you use the full canister better. 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).hi there! Thanks for taking the time to reply – just in case anyone else finds this thread – I bought the following and it screws in both ends (one to the stove attachment and one to the new UK type canister) and it works a treat! https://amzn.to/2YcAhIy Camping is a hobby that requires a lot of gear, and yet sometimes not all manufacturers focus on producing quality products that will stand the test of time. Campingaz is a quality brand that has products loved by campers across the world. This is the reason their products are priced the way they are, because they produce high quality, robust camping products that deserve the price tag. I'm now putting this one down to experience, but hopefully someone may come up with a supplier of a suitable adapter. Camping Gas Canisters are generally safe to use while you're out camping. A Gas Canister would only "explode" if left on a fire and then it ignited, but a gas canister will never just spontaneously explode or ignite unless there is a significant fault with the product. 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 also noticed folks putting mini-blowtorches on top of them to toast their bread! Reply
