Does this(or similar) stove(s) require you buy the toss-away gas canister OR are any of the small canisters refillable with white gas (or other fuel)?

They say you have to use their canisters, but in fact any canister with a mix of butane (or isobutane) and propane will work, maybe not quite as efficiently. You can't refill the canisters, and you certainly can't burn white gas or any other liquid fuel in this or any other stove like it. You have to buy a stove designed for liquid fuel if that's what you want to burn (even then, you can't burn white gas in an alcohol stove, for example). Some stoves will burn diesel, unleaded gasoline, white gas and kerosene. Best to decide on a fuel, then buy your stove.This stove uses all the Lindal valve (screw-on) canisters.
