$20 Emergency Stove - Survival On A Shoestring
This $20 Emergency Butane Stove is a piece of survival gear. It comes with its own case and the fuel is super cheap. It features a full size burner and electronic ignition. This stove would make a great addition to your vehicle kit or emergency supplies. At this price you can get several and always be prepared.
If you can't find one locally I found a very similar one on Amazon for $25. (link supports this channel):

Same here. Just make sure to crack a window, and fit a CO Alarm, in the room you are cooking in.
Pretty cool portable stove Bryan !! Thanks for sharing !!
Thanks Brian CLICK & SUBSCRIBED just like you told me to do. Bought 2 of these little beauties. I haven't read the comments yet, but BEWARE of storing your fuel tins in the car/boot/sun, they could explode if over 50 degrees C. Also only use saucepans & pots that do not over-lap the canister side of the stove. It is best to keep the gas canister on the side the wind is coming from when cooking. CHEERS Brian. from Down-Under in Aussie land.

I got a similar one at Aldi for $15. Bought one for me, one for my bro, and one for my buddy. Great for throwing in the trunk to cook hotdogs at the beach.
I've been using these type of stoves for a good many years now. The best thing about butane is it burns hotter than propane so you coffee water heats up super quick. The only draw back that I have experienced except for the size/weight issue is the lack of a wind screen which is easy to rig up using the case in an emergency. The first time I saw them in use was in buffet restaurants where the chefs at the omelet section were cooking your breakfast to order. So they are somewhat safe to use indoors as long as you have adequate ventilation. Those of you used to cooking on a gas stove will find these a joy to cook on. Instant heat. Thanks

Bill Avery That's exactly why I think they are so cool. It doesn't really require any adjustment from cooking on a regular home stove.
Brilliant, thank you for posting 10/10 .
Coleman now has a version of this as walmart for 19.99 6 years later lol, thanks for the video
I got a dual butane/propane stove very similar to this one. Love it for the versatility to use butane and propane. I highly recommend you add one of these or a dual one to your survival kit. The dual unit is only about 10 to 15$ more. Thanks for the excellent video.

This made me laugh my ass off, no disrespect, love the vid. It's just that around my area, people use this stove as a hotpot stove, nothing but hotpot. My scout troop used to bring that thing winter camping just to hotpot, brings back nice memories. Though I use it often, never thought of using it for survival purposes, thanks for the idea! Gotta start stacking up on those canisters.
I just bought one today at Walmart, under the Coleman brand. Still the same price as yours. Thank you for showing how to use it!

bill birch Yeah, I think the ability to use full size cookware is one of the benefits of this stove.
A nice one for Tenting/car picnics/.....Gas One GS-800P a 7,120btu, it's light weight, small, and runs butane & 1lb propane tanks. For RVing and at home I like the Gas One GS-4000p, 12,000btu but alot more expensive, butane & propane. Both are great for camping, but I do not suggest them for hiking. They are more of a base camp type, to bulky to carry.
Around here these stoves are very common in the Asian markets also.

The stove doesn't always produce Carbon Monoxide. In a normal, oxygen rich atmosphere, it produces Carbon Dioxide, like any gas stove.

Just an FYI, others can refute with no hard feelings to me. I had one and found it only had high heat or almost high heat. Flame went out if I was trying to simmer something.
These are very widely used in Asia and are almost always found in the Asian Grocery stores. Many restaurants in Chinatown even use them for certain dishes. They use them inside, not that I am willing to take on the liability for recommending that. But it is done all the time, (hopefully with good ventilation). Fuel is sometimes as cheap as a buck a can, stoves $12 in the Asian grocery stores.

These type of butane canister and stove were developed by Japanese company named Iwatani, around 40-50 years ago. They are widely copied and used in Far East and South East Asian countries for a long time. You can still by Iwatani versions, which are more expensive than Chinese knockoffs.

I think thee Pocket Rocket is a great stove. I like this one for an emergency use for several reasons. 1- it is very stable and won't tip over, so you don't have to be as careful about that 2- you can use standard household cookware ore easily. 3- it has an electric start, so that's one less thing to think about. Having said all that, this is definitely not the best big out option due to it's size and weight. But for a "bug in" situation, or just plain old camping, I think it is a good option.
