G'day,

Yep, ofcourse.  As long as its butane and has the same canister connection there's no reason why you can't use alternative brands - we do!

G'day Janine,

This depends on the canisters you use and the mixture they contain, but generally, they won't work at all at around 0C or below. At temperatures below 5C, you'll find that they struggle to work, so we'd recommend storing the canisters wrapped inside something insulated over winter so they're not too cold to work for your morning cuppa.

G'day Mal,

Thats an excellent tip!  I've certainly been stuck in a grump on a cold morning with a butane stove and no hot cuppa coffee.
Warming the canisters up really does help.

G'day Jean-Marie,

The gas canisters will still work, they're just not very efficient, so you'll be able to heat up some water to warm up your canisters without issues.  Once warm, you'll get better performance and be able to do proper cooking.

G'day Peter,

The first thing I'll mention is that we're not able to ship these, so it might be tricky to get your hands on one from us unless you're planning an SA or Qld road trip. In most conditions, you'd use about one canister per hour of cooking, so it could work for your hotpot/steamboats.

G'day Raj,

These stoves are made in China. At this point in time, the only stoves we know of manufactured outside of this region are the Coleman Dual Fuel Stoves, they are made in the USA.

G'day Ethan,

We'd love to be able to offer this option for delivery, however, unfortunately, we've had a lot of issues with this particular item getting damaged in transit. The exterior case is a plastic material, that seems to break no matter how well we pack the stoves, so for this reason, we're unable to ship them at this point in time. You might have to try and grab one from a local retailer.

G'day Reese's Buttercups,

The Travelmate II Portable Stove is only designed for outdoor use. All portable Butane and LPG stoves that we sell are only designed for outdoor use.

G'day D,

The Travelmate II Portable Stove isn't really going to cut if for a 10L pot. It might take longer than 20 minutes to boil up a pot that large, and it's really just designed to take standard size pots and pans (5L and smaller).

G'day Peter,

The Travelmate II Portable will have enough heat to boil a kettle or cook sausages. They will be most effective when the fuel bottle is full and the temperature isn't too low.

G'day Brentyn,

Apologies for the confusion here. Gasmate have released a new model of the Gasmate Travelmate II Portable Stove so we do need to update our specifications online. The specifications on Gasmate's website are correct. Our web team will make that amendment as quickly as possible. 

G'day Louise,

The Gasmate Travelmate II Stove should put out plenty of heat for you to cook up a nice breaky of bacon and eggs!
