Campingaz canisters are designed to power compact cooking gear and lighting with the correct gas mix for outdoor use. In this category you will find the familiar resealable valve cartridges used on many Campingaz appliances, as well as the simple puncture-style canisters for classic stoves and burners.

Valve cartridges (often labeled Campingaz CV, such as CV 300 or CV 470) feature the Easy Clic or Easy Clic Plus connection. They screw or click on easily and are self-sealing, so the canister can be removed from the stove and safely stored between uses. This is convenient when packing up camp or when one canister needs to serve multiple devices at different times.

Puncture canisters (such as the Campingaz C206 type) are non-resealable. Once installed, they must remain attached to the appliance until empty. Their simple design keeps weight and cost low, and they are still widely used with compatible classic stoves, lamps, and some blowtorches. Always check that your appliance is designed for puncture canisters before selecting this type.

Choosing size: larger canisters suit basecamp cooking and multi-day trips, while smaller canisters are ideal for day hikes and minimal setups. Capacity influences burn time and pack weight; if in doubt, consider carrying a spare resealable cartridge rather than one oversized canister.

Performance and seasons: Campingaz blends are intended for general outdoor use. Like most canister fuels, performance drops in low temperatures. For cold conditions, keep canisters warm before use, shield them from wind, and use a stove that is compatible with your chosen canister type. Always follow the stove manufacturer’s guidance.

Compatibility: Match the connection type on your stove or lamp to the canister. Look for Easy Clic/Easy Clic Plus for Campingaz valve cartridges, and C206 fitting for puncture models. If your appliance specifies a particular Campingaz code (for example CV 300 or CV 470), choose accordingly. When unsure, consult the appliance manual.

Safe handling: use canisters only in well-ventilated areas away from flames, heat sources, and enclosed spaces. Check gaskets and threads, attach firmly without forcing, and perform a quick leak check before lighting. Store canisters upright, cool, and dry; do not leave in hot vehicles or direct sun. Transport in a ventilated compartment and follow any carrier restrictions.

Disposal: empty metal canisters can often be recycled according to local regulations. Ensure they are completely empty and follow any preparation steps advised by your municipality. Do not puncture or incinerate unless the manufacturer provides specific instructions.
