I store my green propane bottles in a small igloo cooler in my vehicle. I checked it out. 101degrees F. Outside. Inside the cooler in the truck 85 degrees inside the cooler. It also keeps them upright.

[@crewdoglm]

As a climber, I dismissed butane altogether for years and then just recently gave it try - which verified that I was 100% correct to have ignored it. However, that experience led to my "discovering" propane. Now THAT makes sense; the green bottles are not criminally heavy and propane boils at -40F so it's still got decent PSID at single digits. I use an MSR LOWDOWN with a Rocket; that thing rocks like an acetylene torch. It's also possible to put the bottle in an Outdoor Research 1L bottle parka for some warmth/padding. The Whisperlite is still my choice for survival-critical situations but otherwise, LPG is my new friend.

[@emmitmeyer1368]

Great video, I have a few backpacking stoves that I use with propane instead of butane, The ones that have a hose instead of screwing the stove on top of the bottle can be a problem if you do not keep the 1 lb cylinder upright, Liquid propane can enter the lines and cause your stove to spit and sputter instead of burning cleanly...When using propane on a butane stove make sure that your propane tank stands upright so as to avoid this problem. It is also advisable to keep your flame as low as possible when using propane, otherwise the higher pressure will begin to freeze up at the burner orifice.

[@tomlarson2403]

I own one myself, great thing to have. Thanks for putting this out there, Good job.

[@50kArchipelagos]

I have two of these. They pay for themselves almost immediately and from there on in it's all savings. Combine them with a refiller nozzle for your 20 lb propane tank to keep your one lb bottles full much more cheaply. Highly recommend especially for camper RV life. The 25 dollar Coleman Peak and the 10 dollar GasOne stoves, any other too, all work just fine on this setup. Buy these.

[@magnumarrowarchery155]

This adapter is essential! Those iso cans can be hard to find in smaller towns where the 1lb LP or map gas cans are readily available

[@spacetrucker2952]

I just bought one of these from your store. I like the idea of having options.

[@4acae86]

This 100% answered my question. Figured this would work for stoves, but wasn’t sure about the lantern. Thank you!

[@Sffrntgr]

Thanks so much. Very helpful and just gave me a longer lasting option. I'm using a Etekcity Portable Stove and didn't want to use the Isobutane option

[@MrBluesluver]

Excellent video. Was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for the info.

[@Sjackson2369]

I just had two of these show up from Amazon and cannot wait to put them to use. I have a family that is in one of my touring vehicles that are having trouble finding isobutane canisters, but have lots of access to propane bottles. I’m gonna get one to them and keep one for myself.

[@donaldsaunders4736]

Thanks for the video love that lantern 👍

[@condor5635]

Great overview. Never knew they made lanterns for the canisters! Now all you need to do is buy the adaptors to refill these tanks and really save you money. As long as you weigh them and are carefully it can be done very safely. Thanks!

[@wanderingcalamity360]

Yeah. I'm unimpressed by the cost of the little cans, too. But there's options for refilling them, either from other isobutane camp stove canisters or from butane canisters, and the item in this video seems like it ought to be a good addition to the other tools for refilling them with a good butane/propane mix for all weather use.

[@johnchester2272]

I would try a Coleman lantern mantle, just to see of it performs better with the propane on the lantern options. Handy gadget.

[@KaylynnStrain]

gotta put this on my wishlist

[@mikebutters4540]

I have both of the adapters the one that you go from the mixture to the propane units and then from propane fuel canisters to mixed stoves . And on your Lantern it might be the mantle used the proper mantel for propane

[@aurtisanminer2827]

It’s probably the orifice in the lantern assembly. They use different sizes for different fuel types.

[@toothytube]

The burner on the Coleman Peak-1 is designed to produce a "diffused flame pattern" for even cooking/simmering, as opposed to the "concentrated flame pattern" of the MSR "pocket rocket" style burners that are geared toward boiling water.

[@morganfayel9329]

Exactly! Besides I'm not going to make a big meal in the camping, I'm just going to heat up, not cook, for that I'd better stay at home and make a big stew.😋

[@KahlestEnoch]

That is cool I always wondered if you could get an adapter to use the propane

[@timothyedmiston8756]

I have been looking for this very item

[@coffeemaninsanity8596]

That lp adapter comes with the Stryker 200 stove from Walmart in case you’re looking into buying a jet boil copy anyway

[@geomcc39]

Remember to put the adapter on the stove first before the propane tank ! twig stove is a nice back up .

[@escapetherace1943]

no need, I put the adapter on first every time, it has a seal and won't leak dude

[@lesliepaulkovacs6442]

Another Option for Use: Cache at your Bugout Location or Hunting/Vacation Cabin. Or for a Blackout/Grid Down and you're stuck in an Apartment Building. After all, those one pounders are a LOT easier to Find and Store than Isobutane. Thanks for the Video and Take Care.

[@adama1294]

If your caching, go for the 20lb propane bottles or higher. They are built much better and can be refilled at many places.

[@smokeydk7712]

only thing about using the big canisters is the worry of tipping it over...I think coleman has a plate type thing that goes on the bottom of the canister to help

[@hauk3839]

Trangia has a propane fire that you can put in fire box stove. You can cook dang near any thing in there. I'm going to use reusable 5 lb propane tank compair to throw away 1 lb tanks. Good video.

It will work with that little mantle-less gas lantern/candle thing you tested in a previous video which is awesome. Burns a very very long time on a pound of propane!

[@DougKremer]

My math says at the spec'd 6g/h rate the little gas candle should run nearly 12 days straight (285 hours) on 1# of propane.

@@DougKremer is that 6g/hr rate running it at max flame/open all the way?

If you don't have any more cold days you could do a winter simulation and put your propane in your freezer for 3 days and try it like that

Not a bad idea, perhaps that will be my Monday vid.

[@jshirks]

Thanks for sharing, you scared with the lantern (I JUST bought one that says it works with either IsoButane or propane.) I noticed the adapter for propane comes with instructions that mentions increasing or decreasing pressure through it by turning a set screw (most of the little butane/propane adapters seem to have an adjustment screw on one side or the other.) Maybe this helps.

[@sammyjudeh1117]

1 lb. = 454 grams. A lot cheaper. Plus you can refill propane containers. Great vid.

[@impermanenthuman8427]

I’ve seen vids showing refueling the 1 pound propane tanks from the 20 pound tanks which are even cheaper to refuel, so this means 20 pound propane tank to refuel the 1 pound, then use adapter from 1 pound tank to isobutane stove, so can now run isobutane stove for the price of 20 pound bbq gas station refill propane? 🤓 There is also an adapter to refuel the small (backpacking size) isobutane canisters from the butane stove canisters at 1/10th the cost of isobutane canisters and the butane canisters are available everywhere even in supermarkets

[@derrickgrigg]

Have you seen any freeze up issues when using propane. I used the same adapter on foldable Lixada camping stove and the line that runs from the canister to the stove kept freezing up when using propane. The stove would stop working until I thawed out the line. For any prolonged cooking the propane canister was effectively useless because of that.

[@coachangelap.wilson824]

I buried my canisters half way into the ground to protect from freezing and stability so my soucepan does not fall off.

[@brdbrntrn]

thanks for your awesome review. I just have two questions. I got mine and tried it las night. yes, it works. but is it as efficient as Isopropane? and due to the extremely higher pressure is it safe to use with Isopropane stove? have you done any boiling test?

[@Iridium242]

I cant remember if I did a video on it or not but they were pretty close. The Isobutane was faster but only by a min or so.. not too much. The main reason I got the adapter was so I can use the stoves no matter what fuel was available. If I cant get the Iso Butane canisters, I can use the propane ones!

[@yamilmartinez909]

Can you use this adapter with a camping space heater?

[@eugeniovasquez3780]

I heard using hot hands and wrapping around propane tanks in extreme cold keeps it from freezing. But I never did any survival or camping so maybe I'm wrong
