Campingaz C206 GLS Gas Cartridge - Blue, 190 g

I had to give these a go, because at £2 a can, this is about as cheap as "disposable" gas gets. I am using them in my 50-odd year old Super Bluet stove (I inherited it from my grandfather, and he has been dead for more that 40 years, which gives an idea of the minimum age of my stove ! Yes, C206 cartridges fit (and work perfectly) in my 50-year old "C200" gas stove. I was a bit suspicious, because the picture shows a butane cartridge, but the description much further down says a 80/20 butane/propane mix. £2 seemed to cheap for a b/p mix, and like I said, the picture shows a butane can. Certainly 80/20 b/p mix cans used to exist, and they were marked "Super", and say Butane and Propane on the can - I have one in my stove at the moment. I ordered FIVE cans at the incredible price of about £2 each - so 5 cans for a tenner. And, yes, they came next day (a Sunday!). b/p mix cans would have been better, and if i had paid £5 a can, i would be disappointed, and returning them, but for £2 a can, I am delighted with whatever type of can! Do the math(s): 5 cans (C206) = 5x190g gas = 950g of decent "brand leader" gas for a tenner. the other cheap option is "aerosol" (CP250) cans that fit something like a CG Bistro stove - a decent price for those is a tenner (including delivery) for 4, which is 880g gas for a tenner. (unless you buy some no-name brand, when they are a tad cheaper) the more modern screw-on/clip on cans (e.g C500, CV470 from Coleman, CampinGaz respectively), you are paying C500s are £25 for 6 (which is 440g x6 = 2640g gas), so that works out a bit under £10 quid for 1000g gas. CV470s are £26 for 4 (which is 450g x4 = 1800g gas), so that works out at 13 quid for 900g gas So these "old-school" C206 cans are pretty competitive on price, and to be honest, propane only makes a difference if you are under about 7 Celcius (about 45F). This is England, not Canada (!) and most folks only do 1-season camping, and maybe 3-season camping at a push, so a straight butane cartridge is just fine me! But like I said at the start, be aware that you will get Butane cartridges, not the "Super" Butane/Propane cartridges mentioned in the description!

It's Campingaz...it works as described. Highly recommended for Campers and emergency Home use. Highly recommended

Good service

It was just what I wanted, great.

Does what it says on the tin, easy to use

Check the length and diameter of the gas cyclinder to be replaced as these ones are 90x90 mm

It wasn’t the right canister for the stove we bought it with. I am sure it does the job with the right stove: I remember using them 50 years ago. Expensive for the amount of gas, but potentially convenient.

It's gas so not much to say about it but it was a good price for the two canisters
