Features of this product

Heat panel to accelerate the vaporization of gas

As the vaporization of gas progresses during combustion, the temperature 

drops, the heating power weakens, and it becomes impossible to use all the 

gas in the canister.  

To prevent this, a moderate amount of heat from the flame of the burner during 

combustion is transferred to the canister to accelerate the vaporization of gas, 

which maintains the heating power so that all the gas can be used up. 

This makes the canister slightly warm, but this is not a problem.

Detachable canister with magnet

The canister is installed using the magnet instead of a lever. 

This makes it difficult to install an incorrect or faulty canister.

Pressure sensor safety device

If the pressure (temperature) inside the canister becomes 

abnormally high (about 104ºF/40ºC or higher), the canister 

is detached automatically, and the flame is extinguished.
