Question folks...
The instruction manual on the GigaPower GS-100 stove I bought recently is very specific in stating that the fuel canister to be used with this product MUST be a GigaPower Fuel Canister.
Quoting the instructions, "Reason: The valve configuration and pin length are different on fuel canisters from other manufacturers. The use of those cartidges may cause gas leaks and possible ignition of the gas, leading to fire or burns."
Is this factual, or just GigaPower's attempt to secure themselves more business? I'm wanting to avoid becoming a human fireball somewhere between here & Maine.
Thanks all.
