Different types of fuel work better in different situations, and consequently the different stoves and lanterns are better to be used in certain circustances. Full details and guidelines can be found under Stoves and Spares.

The main choices of fuel are:

  1. gas; either Camping Gaz, Primus, Go System
  2. liquid; either Primus PowerFuel or Barratine Meths.

We also stock solid fuel tablets from Hi Gear. Other alternatives that can be purchased at many hardwear stores and garages are Parafin and various vehicle fuels.

Gas tends to burn cleaner, but the cartridges can be bulky and more expensive. PowerFuel and other high performance liquid fuels burn reasonably cleanly but are not so common, and is still reasonably expensive. Vehicle fuels like diesel, meanwhile, tend to be dirty beasts, and will necessitate cleaning out your stove much more regularly. Alternating dirty fuels with a small amount of cleaner liquid fuel will also help keep your stove performing well.

Fuel availabilty

Travelling and expeditioning outside of Europe, North America, Australia and SE Asia it can be very difficult to get hold of any fuel other than petrol. In popular areas such as those accessible from Kathmandu most fuels can be found at a price, but generally gas and meths can be ruled out. If you have doubts about availability on your travels, drop us a line and we will do our best to help.

If you are buying a petrol burning stove for travelling in Asia or Africa make sure that it will accept different grades of petroleum. In many places even unleaded will be unavailable so the stove needs to accept fuels like four-star or diesel. A good example is the MSR Dragonfly. Take a servicing kit because these fuels will clog any stove with soot in time.
