Most camping stoves use gas canisters filled with butane, propane, or a mix of both. Some models, like Campingaz stoves, use specific screw-top canisters, while multi-fuel stoves can run on liquid fuel for extended expeditions.
How long does a camping gas canister last?
A standard 230g gas canister usually lasts around 1.5 to 2 hours on high heat, or longer at simmer. Efficiency varies by stove type and weather conditions. Integrated systems like Jetboil tend to maximise burn time.
How to choose a camping stove?
