Petrol Stoves
« on: August 25, 2011, 03:05:10 PM »
G'day brainstrust

We are currently bush living in portable site shed / containers in between work & camping trips and are chomping through the Gas Bottles as it is used for everything.

I have heard petrol stoves are a far more efficient way to go.

So who has used them, what brands and what did you think of the units.

Pros & Cons

Cheers

I to have I've got a couple of Coleman dual fuel stoves and love them ..... but why stop there we also have a couple of duel fuel lights and they work a treat also. Single mantil unit will run for several nights on a low setting with only a single tank of fuel. (I have been told there not as efficient on the unleaded though)
