[QUOTE=cyccommute;11414714]'Green propane canister'? I'm not, nor is anyone else, talking about using a 2 burner Coleman style stove while on tour. That's just silly. They don't even work with small back packing stoves. If you don't know (which I find rather puzzling), the canisters for backpacking stoves are generally 8 oz fuel canisters like this one

Coleman makes a single burner propane stove that runs on the big green 16.4 oz. propane cartridges. I think that's what Bekologist is referring to.

Too heavy and bulky for self propelled travel, and not worth packing for car camping. Lots of people try them because they are cheap.
