Review of four stove types for vans

LOL, yeah those fuel prices are outdated. highdesertranger

It DID run out of fuel. In the middle of the barrens.
Nice to be able to get fuel from van and have warm coffee and an omlette.

So am I the only person using a single burner Coleman with propane? I like the idea of the single burner butane stove, but isn't the fuel much more expensive? I've used butane/iso blends with my Pocket Rocket camping and the small ones aren't cheap. Please enlighten me.

I've been using a single burner Coleman stove for years--works great. Yes, butane is much, much more expensive per gallon.

You can get adapters to use the asian store $1 cans.

But nothing's cheaper than bulk propane.

 

[highdesertranger]

also butane is really hard to find in the boonies. highdesertranger

Also easy to get adapters to run a butane stove to run off either kind of propane tank.

I like the ability to toss the stove + fuel in a small pack and take along hiking or on a picnic.
