GasOne Butane Fuel Canisters, 8 oz (Pack of 4)

The GasOne butane fuel 4 pack bundles four Gas One GAS-1 canisters, 8 oz (227 g) x 4, or 32 oz (908 g) of butane in total, for people who cook on a portable butane stove a few times a season. Four cans give you about five hours at full flame on a 9,000 BTU/hr stove like Gas One’s GS-3000 (based on its 185 g/h rating), and more when you simmer, without the storage question that comes with a dozen.

Key features

• Four canisters: 8 oz (227 g) x 4, Gas One part number GAS-1
• UL listed canisters, per Gas One’s catalog
• Notched collar designed for vapor withdrawal; locks into stoves built for this cartridge style
• The fuel Gas One lists for its portable butane stoves and for its dual-fuel stoves on butane
• Non-refillable, single-use canisters

Where to use it

A camping weekend, a run of tailgates, cookouts at the park, or a kit set aside for cooking outdoors during a power outage. Keep in mind that Gas One’s GS-3000 manual rules out household use and its current product page says “For Outdoor Use Only.” Never cook with it inside a home. In New York City, the Fire Code allows at most four butane containers per home, so a 4-pack is the limit there.

How to use

1. Check that your stove takes 8 oz butane cartridges with a notched collar.
2. Load one canister at a time with the stove off and cool: align the notch with the regulator guide, lock it in and close the compartment cover.
3. Leak-test each new canister with soapy water, never with a flame.
4. Swap canisters only after the stove has cooled and away from other flames or burners.
5. Between trips, take the canister out of the stove and store the cans upright, away from heat and out of children’s reach.

Compatibility and cautions

Gas One’s GS-3000 manual is specific about home storage: remove the canister from the stove and store butane outdoors in a well-ventilated area, out of the reach of children, not in a building, garage or other enclosed area, and never above 120°F (49°C) or in direct sunlight. Do not run the stove below 32°F, never use it in a tent, camper, car or home (carbon monoxide), and never put empty canisters in a fire.

Choosing between pack sizes

Need only a spare? Buy a single Gas One 8 oz butane canister. Planning a longer trip or cooking for a group? The 8-pack doubles the fuel, the 12-pack suits weekly use and food service, and the 24-pack case has the lowest cost per can. Read the GasOne butane fuel guide for more on choosing and storing butane.
