Welcome to our Community Q&A page for Camping Stoves.

the butane to have a reasonable vapor pressure so they are not very good for camping in temperature below about 0 centigrade. Assume the enthalpy of vaporization of butane is 24.3 kj/mol . if the camp stove fuel tank contains 190.g liquid c4h10 how much heat energy transfer is required to vaporize all of the butane?

Does anyone have experience using Coleman camping stoves, the 2 - 3 burner 'family' type? Is it messy/smelly using the dual-fuel system (e.g. unleaded petrol), compared to butane gas cylinders? is the Coleman type hotter? Quicker to cook? Reliable? More economical? Cheers!

I am having a recreational design class, and I choose to design camping stoves, but I am not too familiar with what people really want and what they think is needed for a camping stove to be. Could anyone please give me some ideas, and I can narrow down my thoughts and start designing? Please anwer to this as soon as possible. Thanks a lot!

First time camper. I bought a camping stove and I can buy a propane bottle that I can screw to the adaptor on the stove. Because the adaptor with the bottle stick out, I wanted to find out if it is safe to unscrew the bottle with propane in it from the stove prior to travel. I wanted to make sure I didn't do something to result in a leak. Thanks

Normally supplied in metal containers under pressure, the fuel exists as a mixture of liquid and gas, so high temperatures may cause the container to explode. At 25.0°C, the vapor pressure of butane is 2.3 atm. What is the pressure in the container at 276°C (ΔHvap = 24.3 kJ/mol)?

There's one in poundstretcher and a similar one in a camping shop. Like this:- http://www.poundstretcher.co.uk/portable-gas-stove.html

I'm going to gas myself to death this friday because I have had it with living in a facist plutocracy.

im in australia victoria and im looking to leave technology for a while, but all the parks i see say i have to lug around a gas stove to make a fire. i mean whats the difference is it because the flame is off the ground that its suppose to be ok? i just think techonolgy has gone to far and im looking to get out for a while and i cant even do that with all these silly laws i have to worry about, it sucks

I love to BBQ and we are planning a family camping trip. I want a small portable camping grill. I know, I know, cook over the fire, and we will, but I also want to cook on a grill too. The trip is 5 days. Thanks for your suggestions!

Is there any sort of portable oven, grill, or whatever, that you could use that is simply like buy it once & use it forever without paying another cent? Something where you don't need electricity, or have to refill the gas, or replace anything, or pay for anything else. I just want a no hassle, easy, long lasting, portable camping oven. Does such a thing exist or am I doomed!? PS I know fire would be one solution, but anything beside that.
