Campingaz CV 300/470 Plus Easy-Clic Gas Cartridge, for Camping Stoves, Compact and Resealable Canister

Product Information

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). Which is just as well as Hikin’ Jim at Adventures in Stoving (great site), advises strongly against using such a stove with this adapter.

None of these are of much use to any backpacker passing through as most stoves will not connect to them and they gather cobwebs for months.

There are adpters that can make a Lindal stove use CampinGaz canister but, so far, no adapters that will take Lindal canisters and make them work with CampinGaz stoves. Even with hindsight, looking at gram contents of my pack I would probably have excluded an adapter then and I continue to exclude them now. 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. You must remember that these connections effect a gas seal with the o ring fitted in the female fittings, so you must ensure that you don't compromise this seal by damaging either the o ring or the blue plastic clamping mechanism. I contacted Campingaz to see if they have an adapter so that I could use the screw on canisters like the Number 5 example you show that are readily available in various sizes here.

Probably a different stoichiometric ratio or something about the porous radiant burner design, but it doesn’t like pure butane at all. Please can you tell me of there is an alternative to the CV270 Campingaz canister for use with the Campingaz Bleuet CV270L lantern. Alternatively there are adapters that will enable a ‘standard’ backpacking stove with a lindal connector to be used with these canisters.

It seems that MercatorGear is only into small size backpacker canisters, I am interested in the heavy duty Campingaz R901/R904/R907 canisters.

One was a new purchase while another has rarely been outside any gear list I have compiled over the past decade. These taller butane canisters are narrow and unstable if they are used with a canister top stove rather than a remote stove. There are only a few manufacturers of [screw thread] canisters world wide, and they manufacture all the different brands. I'll see if I still have a copy of 147 around, and may have a canister somewhere to see what the markings say. A backpacking stove being used with propane has to be very carefully opened with the burner valve control due to the higher pressure that propane exerts.From the amount of comments on this article though, it seems as if there might be a market for them! The most common of the smaller propane containers are the familiar large dark-green 453g / 1lb canisters. 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? 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.

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. If so then there are proba ly a variety of connectors available for bottled gas rather than canisters. Just a handful of manufacturers have produced lightweight stoves that will attach to a small variety of canisters. These are compatible with the very great majority of backpacking gas stoves and are a type of canister found across the World. Their titanium Siphon has its faults, but these are mostly balanced out by simplicity, small size, light weight, robustness and performance.That stove has a pre-heat tube (not all remote stoves do) so can be used with either a gas or liquid feed. There are many commercial adapters that will enable some backpacking stoves to be connected to gas canisters that do not have screw on type Lindal valve connectors.
