Will the stove work in cold weather? With a separate gas canister, it might work when the gas is all liquid, or it might not, depending on the design. If not, I'd expect it to be useless once the air gets to around fridge temperature (unless using the heavier, more expensive methylpropane (i.e. isobutane)/propane canisters).

Canister stoves normally have a good bit of trouble at and under freezing temperatures. Liquid fuel doesn't have that problem so much. If you're going to be doing a lot of cold weather stuff, I'd go with a liquid stove.
