Campingaz Blue CV470 Plus Gas Cartridge

Product Information

I didn’t realize there would be an issue until after I received the setup, so I’ve spent an ungodly amount of time figuring out how to get around this situation. These canisters are a bit heavy to carry around in a backpack but might be used for camping from a car or at a basecamp. This product is not sold in Europe (certainly not Norway, where I live), and thus is fitted for the 16.

Is there any reason that I can’t use smaller screw cannisters with a stove that claims it can only run on large refilable cylinders?

Thanks for taking the time to reply – just in case anyone else finds this thread – I bought the following and it screws in both ends (one to the stove attachment and one to the new UK type canister) and it works a treat! Otherwise, consider this a “thank you” note, and I hope you and your readers continue to have safe travels. I have an Ozark Trail two burner camp stove which I bought from Walmart in 2016 when travelling in America. However, I’ve recently looked into a more base-camp type stove, and have landed on the Camp Chef Everest. Identical to screw-on canister except without the thread on the valve (meaning they’re incompatible with each other).

If so, your best bet will be a stove that burns petrol instead, because you can get that every time you fill up your bike. For what it’s worth, the aerosol-type canisters were very prevalent on my trip to southern Chile this year — they seem to be associated with the cheaper-looking stoves imported from China and elsewhere. Just bought a Camping Gaz Twister, so at least the older kids can use it when they go camping (only had BBQ) and said excited about having bacon breakfast and a hot drink. Some stoves have a “pre heat tube” that means the stove still works with the canister turned upside down, which means it works better in the cold. They are an old and very simple design that just isn’t compatible with the more modern (and safer) alternatives.But that’s not widely experienced, there’s no obvious consistency in which are the best/worst brands, and I don’t know of any reason that would be true (ultimately, they are just metal pots filled with gas). Problem is that I do not have the fitting to empty them and I am apprehensive about puncturing them.

If you read the guide below and learn about the alternatives, there are some tricks to get around the problem. According to everywhere i’ve looked, it recommends that i have to use the larger refillable gas cylinders (3kg or larger) however i have now bought a screw-fit regulator and would prefer to take a few of the smaller cyclinders on our tripto france, as we’ll only be using it for a few days to cook breakfast.Plus, I’ve included details of some little known adaptors that will allow you to use any gas cylinder on your camping stove and three stoves that will take more than type of canister. It’s possible that this question has already been answered but if it has I can’t find the question or response. In truth, I think you’d pretty much reached the conclusion already: I don’t believe there are any adaptors or alternative fuel sources for Campingaz Bleuet style stoves.

When gas canisters (which actually contain liquid, not gas) get cold, the liquid sinks to the bottom of the canister. I’m afraid I’m not aware of any adapters that allow you to use other canisters on a pierceable stove.

Why has no-one done a female screw in to easy clic…or has Camingaz got some patent strangle hold on this way round? I'm now putting this one down to experience, but hopefully someone may come up with a supplier of a suitable adapter. Most camping stoves are just compatible with screw-on canisters and some are just compatible with Easy-Clic canisters.
