Can anyone tell me the exact kind of Butane fuel to get for the attachment and fuel type to be compatible? Thanks!

I have not bought any butane fuel. You do not have to purchase any butane. They work just fine and last for a while. Very reasonable on theprice.

The problem is the pressure. The original charge works well. The refill just gives a small flame which is hopeless. I guess they are actually disposable - pack of three gives the clue.

This one will fit it. Coleman Butane / Propane Mix Fuel (Mix Fuel 7.75 oz.) - 7.75 oz.

I use Vector Quintuple Refined Butane Gas Fuel Refill. I would think any butane gas would be fine.

I took the propane bits off before I even assembled the grill and connected it to my house's natural gas line. Works perfectly. They want you to buy a "conversion kit" which tells you to remove the bits and connect a hose (which you can get at home depot for a few bucks). YouTube it.

I use Coleman 16.4 oz Propane fuel. But at Chicagland Speedway last year for a NSCAR race WE saw one catch on fire, the green paint bubbled off, the smoke was black, and smelled horrible. If I would have not yelled at the guy using the grill there would have been major problems. He had this grill on a waist high table the flames were so high they almost started his canopy on fire. It would have if we didn't spot it in time.

The one with the attachments allows you to use propane as well as charcoal and wood. By the way, I have used mine all winter on our covered deck on a ceramic tile top table and we love it. It is very miserly with propane, and has ultimate control over the flame. I have heard of people using it for canning because the control you have over the flame (this is not usually recommended, but I might try it if I get brave enough).

Must use specific butane cannisters. You can buy burton or other brands online, but expensive to ship. I get mine at local sporting goods stores, army surplus stores or sometimes walmart.

I got my butane from a local Asian grocery here. Just went in and asked for some can gas...They also sell the Butane on Amazon.

yes i purchased the zippo Butane for this unit. It works great. I got one at Wal-mart and another one from Bed Bath and Beyond.

I bought this unit specifically to carry on my MC! There is absolutely zero chances for butane leakage plus there is no spark source in the Tool Roll anyway. I also carry a refill tank of butane as well as propane mini-tank for the camp cooker. In more than 20 years of summer MC touring I have never had a problem with this soldering torch or those that preceded it...

I don't use the adapter, rather a distribution tree, the 'Century Two-Piece 18-30" Type 1 Safety Post' found here on Amazon. Should have the same result. I'm pretty sure the same end of the hose that connects to the tree (female thread with male extension) would fit that single adapter. From the Colman web page for the bulk adapter; "Use your Coleman stoves almost 20 times longer without refueling with help from the Coleman Bulk Adapter. This accessory, coupled with a Coleman 8 Ft. Propane Hose, allows you to hook a 20 lb. tank to your camp stove for high-pressure fuel. For use on bulk propane cylinder with standard OPD valves. For use with Coleman 8 foot high pressure hose 2000005042" Good luck! just remember this is for use when you want full unregulated pressure, such as to a lantern or stove.

I bought a 12-pack of GasOne Butane canisters offered on Amazon. They work fine. As mentioned in my review, if you want a fuel to use in below freezing temperatures, then I'd go with a propane cook stove.

No sorry that wouldn't work. You need something like this - Zippo Butane Fuel, 42gm

The canister sold here on Amazon are fine, I would think any brand would be about the same, I hunted for the best price. The canisters are larger than the ones you find for refilling a lighter, and with shipping cost, around 2.00 - 4.00 each. Each canister lasts threw several days. I used mine mailing to heat water and make small meals for one during two week long power outages last fall, and am on my second canister. Butane is hotter than propane, takes a lot less time to boil water, and watch your food close! It will burn quickly! These stoves are great for emergencies, or camping.

I don't know that the mixture (fuel/air) would be correct. Propane is cheaper... depending on where you are.

You can use the standard butane/propane canisters sold at REI and other outdoor equipment outlets. The one I have used is made by MSR, but there are several similar canisters that will also work. Hope this helps!

You need to buy the butane if I remember correctly. Its like $4 a can and lasts a while
