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. All I can say is that the link I provided is the actual seller from where I purchased mine and the adapter I have shown is the one that was sent to me, if some time ago.

However, if the regulator you’ve bought is compatible with the smaller screw-on canisters then I imagine it would work just fine. Which is just as well as Hikin’ Jim at Adventures in Stoving (great site), advises strongly against using such a stove with this adapter.Hello Jools, I’m looking for a camping stove adapter, and you are claiming that you are using an “Kovea TKA-9504” butane gas adapter. Equipped with a high security self-sealing valve, that can be easily disconnected and reconnected even when not empty.

These can be disconnected from a stove after first use and are a vast improvement on the earlier pierceable cans, hence them being named, in full, Easy Clic Plus connectors.

It may be possible to dig a small hole and bury the canister half deep in this, filling in the sides of the hole around the canister. I have spent days trying to sort out an issue, and your site finally gave me the complete answer I needed to hear (I believe). If you read the guide below and learn about the alternatives, there are some tricks to get around the problem. 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). This product is not sold in Europe (certainly not Norway, where I live), and thus is fitted for the 16.

These adapters do open up purchase choices for canisters and across the length of Scotland they can potentially enable abandoned part-used or full canisters in bunkhouses and bothies to be used. I believe I will have to scrap that portion of my setup and purchase a new burner that takes a more readily available canister.Your article also helped me figure out where to get certain systems, so that was very helpful, thank you! However, if you’re travelling through different countries or out in the middle of nowhere, you can’t always find screw-on gas canisters. Three Points of the Compass is only commenting on what there is out there, products that some people have used and others do not.
