Is IsoPro the only type of canister fuel this stove uses? If so, is it hard to find? Are there any stoves in this price range, and quality, that can use various fuels?

The PocketRocket will accept any threaded, self-sealing Isobutane canister (IsoPro, GigaPower, PowerGas, JetPower, Bruntane,...).I have heard varying point on using other fuels, specifically the JetBoil fuel canisters. It will work but depending on who you talk to, some say it is not quite as effective, others say it works fine. All seem to agree they will screw on, but you may or may not see a slight ineffeciency using fuel canisters other than MSR. Definitely use another fuel if you are in a pinch, though.This stove will accept any Lindal valve (screw-on) fuel canister.The last canitser i used was a coleman propane bottle that you can find just about anywhere. jet boils work well also.
