Review of IPRee Mini Camping Gas Stove
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- I needed a new gas stove for picnics, camping and outdoor cooking - so I thought I'd give this budget-friendly compact folding stove from BangGood a try.
And it's really good! Best of all, the screw connector perfectly fits cheap blowtorch gas canisters.
Here's a link to the product on BangGood:

oh this is the origin of the stove i see you use it all the time!
exactly the same as my lixida stove and i have the gas in the shed! that my friend ! is a bingo!
I think it's being badged and sold all over the place - after I ordered this one, I happened across 'name brand' identical stoves for three or four times the price.
I have this one recently purchased used it a few times perfect only paid £11 I've seen them go for as little as £9 on eBay
Is it possible to buy the bottle with its pump and valves,
but not the stove head?
because i have a stove head which is even more compact than this one.
yes
That's a good price. I like that the control valve is on the can and not on the stove; much safer to use. The disadvantage of the taller cans is the angle the inlet pipe then has to be at (risk of knocking/getting hot (although braiding helps there)); but one fo folding or foil wind breaks would help there, as well as increasing rate of heat transfer to the water.
Yeah, another potential risk is that the taller can may fall over and start squirting out liquid butane/propane instead of gas - although I expect that just means the stove would go out rather than flare (maybe I should test this)
Yes. I still have a 30y old epigas (?) stove that had a plastic base to hold the narrow cans upright. I always preferred to use it with the squat wide stoves.
Yes I think it would flare and then go out. If you do it (safely) post a video.
These are better than msr.s and jet boils .. tbat weld food to your pots . . My msr runs at full pelt ahead only .. welds food to the pot every time ... you will notice ALL the reviews boil water for coffee in them .. these cheap floor level stoves can simmer food . And dont concentrate the flame to the middle of the pan guaranteed to weld your food to it .... these stoves DONT suffer that problem . And you can use a wider variety of pans on them . Anyone familiar with msrs and jet boils will tell you the same thing . 500 coleman gas lasts 2 weeks easy . I wouldnt use anything else . As these are more stable being on the ground ... not likely to flip them over like a jet boil pot
I had a Coleman Sportster stove that ran on unleaded petrol. That little beauty could boil 1 litre of water in 3 minutes! I used it when I went fishing. The petrol it holds lasts a lot longer than you'd think too. I want another one! I only sold it as I gave up fishing after 30 odd years. I paid £45 for it and stupidly sold it at a car boot for a mere £15!
How long do you think one of those cans will burn for?
Not sure, but it didn't seem to be appreciably lighter in my 4 minute test, so I reckon maybe an hour or more, depending on flame level of course
Good day sir where can i buy this kind of mini stove and the hose thank you godbless
Just came from your other video I see the little thing is still going strong
Very good little video, short, and to the point and very helpful. I just bought one for $10 on eBay.
Hope it serves you as well as this one has done me
@@AtomicShrimp I don't actually camp (yuck) but we have had a few storms and a few other situations where they shut of both the AC and the cooking gas. I have a small generator for lights, charging, and heat/AC (depending on the season) but the one link missing was how to cook in such a situation and this will elegantly solve that problem and will not take up too much storage space. I use the fuel cans for my torches which I use for Sous Vide in the kitchen and keep on in my work truck so the fuel is the same and cheap.
This should burn for about 4-5 hours and was the only test you should have done with the small mixed camping fuel and the tall butane cans.
I've tried it with both mixed fuel and pure butane tall cans - both work well. I think the stumpy cans intended for this kind of stove can be predicted to be just fine. The only drawback I found with the tall cans is they can get knocked over and liquefied gas comes through the pipe, which is pretty exciting and dangerous if it happens
@@AtomicShrimp Well I have faced this in other situations with a torch and put the can into the center of a roll of duct tape. I do not know if the tape you get in the UK is the same as the USA but the concept is the same and I am sure you could find a doughnut of some sort for this. there are commercial stands for propane/butane torches but of course, they might be expensive. Here is a cheap one if the link works. If in doubt there is always a small can or flower pot with sand in it.

Thanks - out in the field, I usually just find a fallen tree to set up on and choose a bit that has a crook of a branch that I can nestle the can into - seems to work for the most part
Yeah just brought the same one and the gas caught a light and just blew up in my garden 😳😳
Quick note: For gas bottles without a thread you can buy cheap little adaptors so you can connect it.
UxziYT where to buy adaptor
KpArTs just type on google gas camping adaptor
I just bought one but I was looking for the propane tank that match with it and I can’t find one
Seagull Gold sAme useless
U can use many others types
Buy an adapter for the cartridge that goes for £2
Bangladesh
how to detach ready stock stove burner furnace connector gas tank adapter valve for outdoor camping and change a new one?
This one just unscrews
Thank you so much for this sir🥺, I'm home alone and our stove doesn't work rn so I have to use the mini camping stove but I don't how to use it😭. Thankyousomuch now I know how to use this
Mr Shrimp, how long do the Parasene canisters last in a real world environment? I need to know how many to buy? I'll be using it to boil a kettle while fishing 😊 Thank you.
I've never tested the run time of the canisters, but I think I get at least 2 or 3 days of cooking and boiling water per canister (assuming 3 meals plus two hot drinks a day)
@@AtomicShrimp Thank you kind Sir! 😊 Surprisingly you can still get these canisters on Amazon for the same price. You can still get the stove as well on Amazon, albeit under a different brand name.
Be aware that there are two different types of canister that look pretty similar - the stove I have attaches to an external screw thread on the spigot of the canister, but there are other cans that have a bayonet fitting that just presses/turns into place. I keep one of these adaptors handy in case I can only find gas in the bayonet fitting cans: www.amazon.co.uk/SILULCM-Adapter-Connection-Canister-Cartridge/dp/B07VDRCDCL
Say, if you unplug valve from the can, wouldn't it leak? What about refill? Not refill by buying more cans, but other type can pump it?
this type of can has its own valve built in - the fitting on the end of the gas tube for the stove has a thin tube that presses against it and opens it to allow gas to flow. These cans are not refillable (well, they probably are in theory, but there's no way I'd try it as I like being alive.
Thank you so much for your replied. If not refillable? It will cost a lot of money to buy cans. I do like to pocket size, but coleman burner can use white gas and unleaded gas. So this think coleman might be bigger, but it will save a lot for the long run going camping. Just pump fuel from my car LOL.
Jimmy C whatever works for you. These butane cans were really cheap at my local hardware store. My experience of liquid fuel stoves is that they tend to leak a little and make all the packed gear smell like a garage
how i can buy the butane adatpor?
How has it held up over the years?
Magkanopo yan
Now £17.84. Wow that price inflated a lot in 2 years!
I'd say still good value at that price - I still use this - it lights reliably, cooks fast, and is very convenient to pack away
EUR 30,68 or GBP 27.50 now
nice video
Ha 18 quid now!
Brilliant
It's not ment to be run on butane propane mixed canisters. I have one similar to yours
It's a clone of the Vango folding stove - and it works fine on pure butane or butane/propane mix. It's not meant to be used on the shape of canister I used, but only because they can tip over easily and cause the burner to flare
I got same one with lixada brand buy online... the whole stove caught fire when i increase the gas... dunno if mine one got leaking somewhere or design for small fire only..
Mine can be turned up to a point where it basically spews flame, but when used on a more moderate setting is ok
@@AtomicShrimp the incident happen when i test the stove inside my house and i'm so damn panic trying to put out the fire with bucket of water.. 🤣🤣🤣
Is this okay for indoors
I wonder how well it performs outside since it doesn't have a wind guard or something
It's OK. It does need a little shelter from stronger winds. I usually just place my backpack upwind of it
I found these gas canisters at Bunnings hardware here in Australia 2020 and they are $10.00 Aus each, or just over 5 pounds UK.
Are you sure that's not MAP gas? That stuff is expensive. These are ordinary blowtorch gas canisters - equivalent to those linked below (but the ones in the link have a non-screw flange/rim fitting): www.bunnings.com.au/gasmate-220g-rim-vent-safety-butane-gas-cartridge-4-pack_p0037745
@@AtomicShrimp Yeh I saw those but dont they dont have a screw cap ? This one said it was a definite screw on, so bought this one www.bunnings.com.au/tradeflame-220g-screw-on-butane-power-gas-cartridge_p5910257. I guess I need an adapter to use the ones that are not screw on ? Thanks for the reply.
OK, that *is* expensive.
I bought a pack of the ones I linked above last year, thinking they would fit my stove, but they have a different fit. There is a little adaptor available - here's an example: www.amazon.co.uk/Coolty-Convertor-Connection-Canister-Cartridge/dp/B07MY4P161/ref=pd_sbs_201_3/261-4944983-2054758?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07MY4P161&pd_rd_r=c51a13f4-64da-4c75-99d0-5e1abc31abb0&pd_rd_w=107iu&pd_rd_wg=ExDi3&pf_rd_p=b9bf232d-9a8a-4c7d-aa9d-641c0995d3a2&pf_rd_r=7CKWGS4DXSXK47C3Q87D&psc=1&refRID=7CKWGS4DXSXK47C3Q87D
@@AtomicShrimp Ended up buying these. Ordered that adapter as well. www.bigw.com.au/product/campmaster-crv-butane-gas-cartridges-4-pack/p/755721/
That's an absolute bargain
Is there a way to mod it or is there an adapter to hook it up to a butane or propane calor gas type bottle?
If you mean the push fit type canisters, yes you can get an adapter, you can get them on Amazon for a couple of pound, shipped from China, but Go Outdoors in the U.K., sell the adapters is the stores for just over £4, which is worth it as a 4 pack of push fit canisters is cheaper than one of the dumpy screw fit ones. It works well I have one.
You can also buy an additional adapter to run off propane as well
Where can i order that item???
There's a link in the video description
Pre chat mo ko. Meron saken
How long does it last with that can?
Hard to say as I haven't really timed it - but I have cooked maybe six or seven meals on one can and it's not empty yet
@@AtomicShrimp I read somewhere that it's 2 hour. Six (to seven) meals may be that, 20min per meal. Thank you.
I toured France and Spain last year by motorcycle for 3 weeks, used it twice a day to make coffee and tea, when i got home to the UK, I still had about a third of gas left in the small canister that i took. Hope this helps..
can you please tell me where to buy the gas for the same ? i ordered it but not able to find the right gas
I just bought it at the hardware store - it's the same gas that is intended for the cheaper plumbers blowtorches
Abhishek Sharma me also
It's to big for my bug out bag
If you utilise the spare spaces inside the plastic box (that is, pack small items around the folded stove), it might make sense, but there's still the gas canister. A solid fuel esbit style stove might be better for a really compact bug out bag.
This type of stove is perfect for my needs, so I decided to buy one recently. I've justed tested mine out with a small bottle of butane/propane mix, and after about a minute the flame gets alarming loud very suddenly. I've recorded this happening here: ua-cam.com/video/DkvAEZjgJQQ/v-deo.html - does your stove do anything like this, or is this something I should be worried about?
I'm not sure what's going on there - mine doesn't do that
@@AtomicShrimp thanks for the reply - if yours doesn't do that, I'll write this one off as a bad batch, I'd rather be safe with a gas stove :)
@@huwadamson Best guess - the roaring could be caused by air getting into the flow, so maybe when it warms up, something is expanding and an air gap is opening up in the place where the supply pipe meets the burner
@@AtomicShrimp very likely. The other suggestion I've heard is a defect inside the burner is heating up, igniting the gas inside the burner itself. Apparently the 'roar' sounds quite like a liquid gas stove, which does this intentionally, but it isn't something a gas burner should ever be doing
Did you ever figure out what was happening? Mine is having the same issue
can u give me that sir.. thanks
You want me to give you my stove?
Nothing new try with lighter gas
Lighter gas refiills lack the correct fitting to attach the gas hose.
@@AtomicShrimp Yes but there's have converters for that
There doesn't appear to be any way to fix anything securely to a lighter gas refill can - also, not really sure what would be the point of doing that - the blowtorch gas I used here cost less than half the price of butane lighter refills
@@AtomicShrimp Actually lighter gas is at least 3 times cheaper than torch stuff. You can find converters online they use a thick rubber to seal

Having a can of Gas that close to fire is suicide
Absolutely not. Millions of people have been using them for many decades. They're designed for use in a blow torch next to a flame.
