I wanna leave an honest comment so here goes, This video is genuine and the reason why I say that is because this fella leaves the mistakes and issues within the video, he isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer nor does he claim to be but that definitely adds to his character and this is why I say he's absolutely awesome. I give it a 10/10 💪😎

[@terrym3543]

Sam the reason the little camping stove is erupting like that is tipping it sideways allows liquid propane to enter the burner.

[@Sulucion6Tone]

Was about to comment the same. I do believe most of them even use to say to set in position for 1 minute prior to lighting. :)

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

Oh I see that's interesting!

my pet hamster name charles passed away in my arms on thursday and it’s been really hard. i started watching your videos a few months ago but recently you’ve helped me get through these last couple of days. your videos are really peaceful and very informative. i love camping myself but don’t have anywhere close to camp since i live in the middle of dallas/fort worth. but thank you for what you do and how much you’ve helped me through these times of grief. also 45 minutes are perfect! :)

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

I'm so sorry to hear that. The loss of a pet is never easy. I haven't made an official announcement yet, it we just lost our sweet Shih Tsu on Friday. It was completely unexpected and we weren't ready for it. You have my sympathies friend and just know I'm grieving with you.

[@dangunn6961]

I use a Coleman backpack stove that is very similar to your stove. You have to get the stove in a stable upright position ,, then light it and don't tilt or move it while it's lit. I've even used mine in a hotel room. Although it's probably not a good idea. lol.

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

Hahaha that's hilarious, I've been tempted to do that too.

[@craigofnot]

Just a little tip, that little towel acts as a good barrier between the rusting rims of the gas canisters and the bottom of your pot, when you store your canisters inside. 👍🏻 cheers and thanks for another great vid Sam!

[@ZeroCreek]

I am glad you showed that stove "flare up" at 14:49 in this video. I have used that style of stove for probably at least 20 years and never saw that, but I also haven't ever tipped it sideways. Recently, though, I saw someone in another YT video tip one sideways while lit to help start a wood fire (can't remember what channel). Anyway, I have a couple upcoming videos where I copied that technique to start my fire in a hot tent stove and I will definitely be referring them to this video to see why that is probably not a good idea. Maybe not a huge risk, but could get out of control if someone gets startled by a flare up and drops the lit stove inside a tent or building. I won't be doing that anymore. Thank you for sharing that incident!!!

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

My pleasure friend!

[@BBP3255]

@@ZeroCreek Right on point for these BP stoves!

[@Mantreaus]

I got waterproof socks for riding in the rain and hiking, so a good pair of trail runners can be worn for both. Wear a pair of merino socks under the waterproof ones and you will be warm, dry, and comfortable in trail runners. Always start with a flat spot you will use to cook on your stove. Leave in on the flat spot to light and adjust. You will like how it cooks and you can use them during no fire periods. Everyone that I have known, has lost a meal or two until they found to make sure you have a safe and solid spot for your stove and full pot.

[@iamgroot8631]

Longer videos works for me ! , 40 plus minutes, rain and or snow makes it better, try 2 videos a week, a short video (10-15 minutes) for short day hikes, maybe show case a new product, then a long video (overnight w/bad weather) why not the best of both worlds 😃 can’t wait for the next video 🎉

Just found your channel and I’m really enjoying the content! The mix of good vibes, chill cooking, camping, food, and some bushcraft is perfect. Love the gear stuff too, though I wish it was from Aliexpress instead of Temu. Plus, the longer videos are FOR SURE better, 40-60 minutes is the sweet spot. The shorter the video, the less I watch it, haha. You need time to get hooked to the story, the scenery, and really feel like we’re there with you, you know? When it’s short, you can’t enjoy it as much, and the cuts between sections feel too big if you know what I mean. Keep up the great work!

[@viz.on7]

Oh, and something else, you've issues with the sound a lot of the times, when you go too far or get closed, need to adjust the volume every time... I guess you've an on-camera mic and not one connected to you, so sometimes, it's hard to hear.

[@llsudsll]

Tipping to the side may have contributed to the stove doing that but the main reason is most likely the temperature of the canister. I just had the same thing happen with a stove I trust from Soto as well when temps were around 20 deg F. I believe that the temperature causes the gas combination that's in butane canisters to be more of a liquid form vs gaseous. It'll help a lot to just warm a canister inside your jacket for a few minutes prior to use in winter temps.

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

Amazing what a thing it is to hike in there with everything you will need in a pack on your back. In some ways, it is the ultimate way to camp. It is so different from car camping that the two just don't belong on the same page. Cuz you can bring the kitchen SINK when you drive it all in with a car or truck. But when ya hike in, you gotta make sacrifices. Not only in weight, but in space as well. For years, I camped without a chair. But I quickly discovered that I WANT that chair, and I started bringing it in. Once you get used TO the camping chair? You will never leave home without it.

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

[@3GingerCats]

I'll add my 2 cents. but because everybody is different & has differing amounts of time to spend and number of videos to fit into that time (or attention span) take it as you will. I used to watch all sorts of different types of videos, and the Majority were under 1/2hr some of them tried longer videos and I couldn't stay tuned for that long. Now let's consider me personally... I have an Adventure Motorcycle, I have been getting into the offroad riding, and camping (hence why I'm here seeing what camping gear is worth getting from Temu) But the Adventure riding is something that needs to be learned to be enjoyed, the better you are at riding the more fun it is. and the best on the planet lives a couple of hours away from me. That is Chris Birch. very highly respected right around the globe, and a nice guy to boot. but his Latest video of an Adventure bike Rally that was 1/2 a day ride away... I started to watch it, I was enjoying it. and then I looked at ow long it was (1hr 17 mins) and instantly clicked onto something else because I can't watch anything for that long! To be honest, the only way I get through a video 44minutes long, is to skip bits... mostly talking, and things that go off my current interest point. an example of that is when Yammie Noob is talking about different bikes and moves onto American or European Bikes... I skip to the next segment straight away! up to 25 minutes is easy to watch. 30mins is starting to drag on, 35 mins I'll probably leave the video running while I go make a coffee. and from there the interest wains more and more.

[@CampingwithSamBananas]

I'll keep that in mind, thanks for the feedback!

[@ticklemeelmo73]

[@roblane8953]

Hey Sam, thanks for another cool video! Honestly, my sweet spot for videos is around 30-35 minutes. Any more than that and I tend to to use the 10 second skip a lot! I also prefer to see more of what you do around camp, than the actual walk in. Not being critical, just my two cents! Keep up the good work!

You were right about tilting the can of fuel. I own the same chair from Temu & it's brilliant, same as the saw, I have a bahco saw too & they are equal except the bahco folds up.
