Can you use fuel canisters other than Jetboil's? Will others fit inside the cup for packing?

It will work with other canisters. Most canisters have a standard size. The smaller ones will fit.

I got this for the okeba stove and it works great if your jetboil will screw onto a fuel canister it should work hope this helps

Yes it does. I own that jet boil as well and bought it for that reason. I also bought a stainless steel cup to fit in the bottom because the sol is shorter. It raises it up making it easier to get out as well and u can fit an extra fuel can inside the cup while store. Saving space.

No. I put my Etekcity inside a GSI 32oz. Halulite Tea Kettle, and my propane/butane canister inside a GSI Pinnacle Soloist Cookset. I tried to fit both into the kettle or the cookset pot and there just wasn't enough room. The stove is pretty small so you can fit it in some pretty small nooks in your pack if needed or even a cargo pocket.

I don't think so, I bought Weller Premium Butane Fuel from hardware store and the can was ok for my refill.Adios Santiago

Diesel fuel can be used but it will have an odor, especially if in an enclosed space. Outdoors, may be able to stand the odor. would suggest making a deal with local airport to use Jet-A. This is an extremely good quality kerosene. I run Jet-A without PRST (additive to prevent algae growth and jelling at altitude) in the 3 heaters I have like this one.

1) isopro canisters are not available empty, they are factory charged like a propane tank but mini sized. 2) U.S. or otherwise they are available at many sporting goods stores that sell camp gear. 3) YES ispro canister stoves are very easy to use and an affordable choice. BUT... 4) You can NOT fly isopro canisters anywhere, US or international, so you have to buy them overseas if that is your stove/fuel of choice. 5) You also can NOT fly camp stoves, at least not in the US and often International will prevent flying with them. The 'official' rule is, if it is brand new, never been used, has NO fuel or residue in it you could fly it BUT since TSA would really have no way of knowing if its new they will often remove it from your luggage if it is found. No to mention, just having it in your luggage even if new gives them cause to open and search your luggage, which then opens up the possibility of things becoming 'lost'.... lastly, my personal, prefereance and experience is to make an alcohol stove at your destination, youtube search for 'pop can alcohol stove'. Easy, cheap and, available world wide, without having to fly the stove or the fuel. They work.

I would ask your local gas company if this can happen via an adapter m perhaps the single burner w/aerosol type fuel canister will work best for you inside. You know the type caterers use.

There are small,size sternos , look in Asian markets or local restaurant paper supply co. If no luck there , line the compartment that holds the fuel with heavy aluminum foil and put the solid fuel directly in the unit. It will work fine that way, good luck

I am not an authority on what is permissible to carry on an airplane. However, when I have a question of this nature, I go to www.tsa.gov and then to the tab for traveler information; and would recommend that to the inquirer. I did a quick check and noted that both compressed gas canisters and tear gas are prohibited for both carry-on and checked luggage, so am pretty sure the answer is NO.

Here is the answer I found on the Jetboil website: Jetboil is compatible with valves made to the EN417 specification, a standard adopted by manufacturers throughout the world. Please note that the product has not been tested with every different type of fuel canister, and we cannot claim safe operation with any canister other than our Jetpower brand of fuel. On the forums people complain that performance is diminished when you don't use Jetboil fuel, but it does look like you can use it in a pinch.

You can put any kind of fuel into the bottle however you will want to check the type or types of fuel that are compatible with the stove you have. Different fuels have different burn times and there are several other factors including elevation, wind, and type of stove that would make it extremely difficult to give an accurate answer for this. Any of the tanks would be good for backpacking, obviously the longer the trip, the more fuel you need so it just depends on what kind of trip you are planning. For three days, the smallest bottle would probably be fine

Yes, the stove folds up and fits in a nifty little plastic case. The fuel canister detaches when not in use.

No you cannot. First, federal law prohibits the storage of fuel in anything other that the red gasoline containers. Second, there is no ventilation on the bottle so fumes would accumulate and could cause a dangerous explosive result.

Yes you can if you are talking about the 5 piece trekking cookset . In the picture they show on Amazon , the stove is under the cup , and the stand for the fuel tabs is shown to the right .

Not 100% on this but am pretty sure you can use other fuel cans as long as they have similar tops for attaching torch.

I don't think so, you need the one made by coleman. I know that one works. This is similar to a MSR Pocket Rocket and uses isobutane canisters.
