It doesn't get much simpler, and useful, than the good old lunchbox stove. What's better is that the Companion Pro:Fuel Butane Gas Canisters used to run them are as cheap as chips to buy.
Each canister will run a single burner for about 60 minutes and they have a resealing valve which means they can be removed and stored safely without wasting any gas.
Compatible with any butane canister or lunchbox style stove, keep a 4 Pack Pro:Fuel Butane Gas Canister 220g of these in your garage or camping kit for moments where you find yourself without your normal cooking facilities.
Staff tip:Butane stops vaporising at −0.5°C (its boiling point) and Isobutane continues vaporising down to −11.6°C. Depending on the blend of the fuel you are using, you may experience different levels of performance at low temperatures.

Can these be recycled after use?

G'day Mo,
Got the following info from recyclingnearyou.com.au : "Butane aerosol cans or canisters such as those used for camping should NOT be put in the kerbside recycling they are highly flammable if any gas is remaining in them. It's best practice to keep them out of the kerbside bin and dispose of them at your local household chemical drop-off service"
You can you that website to find the drop off location closest to you!

G'day David,
I've just checked for you, and they are 60% butane, 36% isobutane and 2% propane.
