So let me get this straight. The only fuel canister i can use is the Primus brand and no other branded bottles will work with this thing??

Often a manufacturer will put into their literature to use their fuel. However this is not necessary. The Primus EtaPower will work with any canister that has a Lindal Valve. This valve is standard now on most canisters and allows the user to remove the stove from the canister if needed. The most common being MSR IsoPro (isobutane), Primus (Isobutane), SnowPeak (Isobutane), JetBoil (Isobutane), Coleman Canister (Butane/Propane), Markhill (butane/propane), as well as others. Gaz fuel, which is far more prevalent in Europe, does not have a Lindal Valve and therefore won't work with this stove.
