Thank, Andy! That's as cute as a baby horned toad! I have to order a couple of those, one for myself and my brother! I tried to fix your link but couldn't. Here's the one I found.

You shoot a buffalo or an elk gonna take you years to cook it all. Or a lot more stoves.

Pretty cool tho.

A better link is https://smile.amazon.com/Etekcity-Ultra ... entries*=0

Then you can set it up so NRA profits from your purchase!

That is cool, Andy!

Ordered one myself for my bags.

Too bad they don't take standard propane bottles. Are those bottles readily available? I'm too lazy to go and look. lol

Thank you AndyC for the info, stoves ordered.

Paw Paw, your right. I used smile.amazon when I ordered mine. I didn't think to use that link now or back when I posted some red ot sights and riser mounts. Thank you. I'll remember to do that in the future when I post anything from Amazon. I'm looking for a cheap propane to Lindal adapter now.

You can get an adapter which apparently allows propane-only bottles to be used. I just got a couple of the little camping style Jetboil tanks - those are a butane-propane mix.

I did a search and Academy says the butane/propane Lindal fitting canisters. I'm gonna check them out later today. There's always REI.

Keep us posted please. I bought a couple of these and will need to buy fuel once they are delivered.

I did a test on Sunday on my back porch - I had a 5 yr-old bag of Mountain house which I wanted to try out (and replace for new) so I timed how long it would take for the 2 cups of water to boil. Around 4-1/2 mins at about a medium flame using my South African army "firebucket" mug from the water-bottle:

That saves me the trouble of doing a test. Thanks!

Good News Academy sells the fuel canisters that will fit these stoves. Check your local store on the website for availability because they don't all carry them. My Academy has three different brands/sizes. MSR, Jetboil and Coleman. The Coleman is the least expensive per ounce 7.75oz/$4.99. The MSR is 8oz/$5.99 and the Jetboil is 3.53oz/$3.49.
These canisters have a butane -propane mix instead of just propane. Propane requires a thicker walled (added weight) vessel than butane, but butane will freeze at a much lower temperature than propane. These small stoves are usually carried by backpackers with weight being a critical factor, so the compromise is a B/P mix in a lighter thin walled tank and enough propane in the mix to keep the freeze point low enough to be practical in snowy environs and enough butane to keep the vapor pressure low. It's actually isobutane and I can't remember the different boiling and freeze points of iso VS. normal butane. As an operator in an LPG plant we used to refine 40,000 barrels a day of B/P mix into Propane, Butane and Iso-Butane, but I do recall iso has a higher freeze point than normal. The stoves will work with the small propane tanks, but require an adapter between the fittings on the tank and the stove. The ones I've seen are $25-30 bucks. There are probably some out there that are cheaper.

I actually have a set of these stoves on order from Amazon, along with a couple of 100 gram Jetboil fuel bottles. I didn't realize they're as tiny as Andy has illustrated.
