Glad I could help Marschy  ;D. My day is now complete  ;D

Oh, and I don't own a Pajero either, nor subscribe to their forum but I read about the forum link on two other forums I subscribe to.

and this thread is serving that same purpose again, for those of us who weren't sure in the first place.

if the consumer doesn't know that there is a difference between crv and non-crv (and the sales assitant doesn't know either), how are they supposed to make an informed choice in the first place?  stumble on a thread by 'getting out more', as you so nicely put it?

Mate, it wasn't directed at you personally, or anybody personally.  Setlle down.

Like most things in life, nobody is going to write you a personal letter informing you of every new innovation or improvement that is developed to keep you safe.  You have to make personal choices and part of making those personal choices is being informed. It is up to you, and nobody else, to stay imformed informed.  Have a nice day

I've never heard of CRV cans before.

Maybe because I bought a six pack of the old cans about 5 years ago and haven't used them all yet. I don't use them on the stoves myself, only on blow torches.

With regard cans being clearly marked or not I think is beside the point. I don't think the message about the safety aspect of the CRV cans is getting out there to the consumer, or more to the point, the danger aspect of the old cans when used incorrectly.

Bingo! That would be true for many of us because you'll note that Daeyruk Youtube video was only posted up on 15th July 2013, presumably because their new patented invention was ready to roll off the production line then and naturally they want consumers to buy their cans. Piddling Oz recreational market be damned(only 4 million cookers), they were chasing the vast Asian day to day cooker market, where stove explosion incidents are more notorious, simply due to the sheer volume of useage. Hence they make the Korean news and no doubt many Asian news services while here in sleepy hollow it's all snooze stuff and consequently our Standards people are asleep at the wheel. The laugh is they only wake up to the potetial problem and knee-jerk via a couple of schoolgirl tales plus a woman from NZ on the Choice Facebook page and blame the cookers. Meanwhile, unlike LPG bottles with pressure relief valves, non-CRV cans are still pouring into the country, when private enterprise has solved another possible safety issue at negligible cost to the consumer, but no-one can buy a cooker to use them.

It aint the cookers guys. Its the potential of gas cans without pressure relief valves to go bang in a big way if they're heated beyond their limit and even more so should you further confine them in a tin box. That's just the physics of expanding gases and Daeyruk hammer the point with that model single room and the windows blowing out and the roof jumping up.   
There's no Great Evil conspiracy against consumers within engineering, manufacturing and supply. Just the many tradeoffs incurred to satisfy diverse tastes, priorities and wallets. But first comes all the insatiable Gummint eggsperts, nanny-staters and usual suspects.

For those that have never heard of CRV butane canisters, here is a thread from November 2013 and is where I first became aware of the safety of using these cans.  Suggest some of you need to get out more  ;D

Pretty sure the place I have seen butane cans, BCF, big w, Bunnings I have only seen the non crv ones. Must be more money in the non crv ones and they hide the other ones out of eye level. I also don't requent the pag forum, and I reckon I get out plenty. Camping that is! ;D :cheers:

I see they ( the stoves ) are still available for sale in Qld. Are we tougher or expendable? Or a bit slower to react to banning sale of stoves? Haha.

I live in Brisbane and got a BCF catalogue in the mail on Monday and they were will selling these cookers and canisters.  Also when I was at our local camping shop on the weekend and they were also selling these cookers plus the little aluminium wind breaks. So agree we are either tougher or expendable.  ???

Either that or someone has decided to let natural selection run its course, or the message hasnt got through yet because of the time difference  ;D

Que in Duelling Banjos!
I'm pretty sure I saw some at BCF on Monday. Mind you I wasn't looking for them.
May have to double check on Sunday.

If it doesn't say CRV then you would have to assume not the best to use.
