does this unit use iwatani butane fuel cartridges

I have used other brand of butane fuel and Iwatani with this unit. The Iwatani fuel can just has magnetic which make it fit tighter. But, I couldn't tell difference on performance.

Yes, it does. Manufacturer claims that only Iwatani butane fuel cartridge should be used with this unit.

Yes, I have one and you can use iwatani fuel cartridges but you can use any that are intended for a portable gas camping stove like the GasOne cartridges (12 for $13.50), that are much cheaper.

It can use any brand of butane cartridges. I find that the cheapest place for me to buy them is in a local Asian grocery store. Many stores (like Walmart) also have them in the camping section.

Well, I ordered this very package. It was shipped to me by UPS. There wasn't any hassle regarding shipping. Shipping outside the U.S. might be - don't know. I own an Iwatani burner and they fit perfectly.

Yes. For that matter it is default configuration. Converter would be necessary in order to use small cartridges, two at the time. I'm using Air Venturi 90g.

I can't guarantee it, but I would think not. It lists that it detects propane/natural gas but doesn't list butane.

No you have to purchase that separately for the unit. I bought this as a gift for my friend and she loves it. Great size. You can purchase the butane from Walmart or Bed Bath &Beyond.; My friend loves this little unit

I do not see anything that tells me the Iwatani stove (model - Iwatani 35FW Portable 15,000 BTU) is any safer than others. They are all made the same way. All brands perform on a similar mechanism. I purchased this model for a few reasons. The brand is reputed to be dependable. It performs well in windy conditions. Lower-priced stoves have a power output of 7,500 - 8,000 BTU. The Iwatani model has a power output of close 15,000 BTU. It is designed to perform even in breezy conditions. This model comes with a wind shield. But, realize that the stronger the flame output the more the butane gas canister is used up. The 8 ounce canisters burn for 55 minutes. That said, if you are purchasing a stove as part of emergency preparedness program (earthquake zone, flood zone) or you camp outdoors you might as well get this model. Do not forget to consider the amount of butane canisters you would need to stack up. (There is a cheaper way depending on where you live.) Count 1 canister for 55 minutes. 50 hours of cooking requires 55 canisters, just a rough estimate.

Yes, but it is not as good as the ultimate cartridges. The ultimate is for the cartridge is was shipped with. Otherwise it's basically just a WAC9500. I use this filter, but if you want to remove smells. You may want to get cut-able carbon filters or the filters designed to go with this. (Which are a bit more expensive but are the same thing basically, just no extra work besides install.)

Mine does. The only difference between propane and natural gas is a part or two for the burner. Mine came setup for propane so I didn't need a conversion kit.

Though most qualities of butane will work with this unit, I believe you will get a longer useful life from this torch by using a cleaner, refined butane. I noticed some clogging on mine from using a standard quality butane at times.

It uses a standard cartridge, I got some at Tractor supply. I know this grease gun is more $$ but worth it.

I use butane that I buy at home depot. There is a small valve on the bottom of the burner that easily fits the butane canister.

This item is only compatible with the smaller fuel units...The larger green propane gas cylinders will not work.

They will refill the refillable cartridge that came with the torch. In my experience, this is the best butane available.

Yes, any brand of ISO Butane/Propane fuel canister is made to a standard that will work with any of the Pocket Rocket style of stoves and the brand name of fuel doesn't really matter.

It does on mine. I have several Iwata airbrushes and they have worked on all of them.

This device is designed to be used with a cartridge stove sold separately. This adapter, in theory, would allow you to use cheap 100% butane cartridges found in many Asian markets, dollar stores, etc. at a fraction of the cost of buying isobutane (butane/propane mix) cartridges. Honestly this particular adapter failed to work as It leaked where the stove screwed in. The manufacturing was not very good as the threads were far from smooth preventing the stove from screwing in correctly. The way you use this device is you attached your Lindal valve stove (any isobutane cartridge style stove) on the top of the stand. Then you screw on your butane canister and you use the valve on the stove to adjust the fuel. There are others on the market that are better and safer. I requested and received a refund for this adapter. The seller was very nice and prompt. Perhaps they had a bad run or something. Brunton I think makes a better quality product. If you hike & camp alot I would consider buying the refill adapter that allows you to refill your standard isobutane cartridges using the pictured butane only cans. This is what I do and haven't looked back. I also don't like the seal these cans give when hooked to any devices as they only twist on slightly. Good luck and happy travels.

There actually isn't a cartridge. Butane comes in a very small container that can be purchased at most gas stations. I bought one from a store that sells commercial kitchen supplies. Costs less than $5 and the nozzle of the container fits underneath the torch. Press it in and the butane fills the torch and when a small amount of gas comes from the nozzle you know the torch is filled. Very very easy.
