Join me while I show you how I save money by refilling my camping gas canisters. Gas canisters are expensive and some manufactures have their own design of fittings to make you purchase expensive gas. With a couple of simple adapters you can refill those expensive cartridges with much cheaper variants. Watch, as I explain why, how and when I refill.

I'm pretty sure part of the reason the manufacturer puts a warning to not refill would be their profit margins on sales lol. That's such a handy and cost-effective hack. The full and empty weight of the canister is such a great idea and something I wouldn't have thought of the first time I gave that a try. Thank you Mike! :)

Hi Christine...Thanks for watching and commenting....I'm sure company profits are the main concern with the warnings like you said. But unfortunately, not everyone is as sensible as we probably are and a few might try and fill the cannisters to the top (and that could be dangerous.) Using common-sense, and weighing as you go, I think you should be fine. I have been filling these for years, and never had an issue. In fact, the blue can I refilled in the film is about 7 years old and they have redesigned that particular can now So you cant even buy it anymore......Saved me many hundred's of £'s over the years...And I'm still alive to show how its done...lol....ATB....Mick

I fill mine from a Calor Gas bottle, when I need to top up or re fill. Can take quite a while and stop often to check out the weight to see were I am at fill wise. I recently bought an adapter with a longer hose to aid filling, by being able to get a rough idea of weight without having to keep taking the re fill cartridge off to check weight. I mainly refill the large green Coleman bottles and my Pumping gas torch. Saves a fortune as neither are cheap, and the Colemans isn't always easy to get hold of.

Hi..thanks for watching and commenting...Yes, I have seen that sort of set up being used on RU-vid. I don't own anything that takes the 1lb Coleman bottles, but if I did, i would refill them like yourself. The smaller the canister, the more expensive the manufacturers make them, so definitely worth doing (as long as everyone checks how to do it safely and correctly)...ATB...Mick

Very interesting. I did not know you could refill the canisters. Nice money saving hack. Where I live over on the other side of the pond the price of a gas canister has almost doubled in the last few years.

Hi Scott...Thanks for watching and commenting...Unfortunately the canisters are price rocketing here too. In the UK energy prices have hit all time highs over the past year or two. I think people are using the smaller canister stoves for simple cooking to save using domestic stoves. As a result, the manufactures are becoming greedy and putting the prices up on canisters to maximise profits!...So refilling is even more useful at the minute....ATB...Mick

I bought one of those do dads for my small Jetboil stove canister to top off from a larger one so I always had a full can to start a trip. Didn't buy it to save money, though.

Hi Mark...Thanks for watching and commenting....Yes another great reason to buy, You never really know how much fuel you have left in part used canisters?. So by weighing and topping up before a trip saves that constant worry about gas running out of gas half way through your trip.....ATB...Mick

Hi... I'm not sure which country you live in but if you live in the UK and type "gas refill adapter" into amazon you should get this page: www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=gas+refill+adapter&crid=1RAHUHEAVRXGA&sprefix=gas+refil%2Caps%2C73&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_7_9 This shows you many of the adapters I showed in the video....Hope the link works ok?....ATB...Mick

Is propane unavailable there in the UK? I think that is the real way to save money... it is something around $24 (£19) for a 20lb tank of propane here in the states. Another $20 for an adapter hose, and your cooking forever on one of those econo stoves.

Hi..Thanks for watching and commenting...We do have propane but it tends to be in large cylinders for campervans/caravans or larger family camping stoves with 2 burners and grills. For the smaller camping/ hiking type stoves, they are either these butane/propane mix or simple Butane canisters...ATB. Mick

Pointless filling them. the stove adapters first one out of your box converts them bosh done screw on stove
@MichaelGreenReviews
@MichaelGreenReviews 9 месяцев назад
Hi..Thanks for watching and commenting...Unfortunately you cannot get adapters that convert cheaper screw on canisters to fit onto Campingaz "twist lock" fittings, or for the cheap butane to do the same...So..Its refill or buy very expensive "twist lock" canisters....also the cheaper butane ( where you can get screw fit adapters) are very unstable for "Sit on top" style burners...So it is better to refill the chunkier screw on cans....ATB..Mick
