These are very cool, I have a knock off version of this, very handy and small.

Except for the time to cool down I love mine, then again if Im in a situation where I need it … then I probably have plenty of time anyway.

You won't be disappointed

Does the mantle give off a chemical trail continuously like after initial ignition, or does it burn off clean after a while. Thinking about smoke alarms in rooms.

After the initial breakin of a minute or two it burns clean

Where do you find cheap mantle's?

I saw you mentioned that those LPG canisters are expensive and I agree with that. have you ever looked into refilling them with butane canisters from those larger cooking stoves for cheap? i usually can easily get a 4 pack of 227g fuel canisters for 5.99 CAD. On amazon you can find this little adapter to just plug and refill those canisters. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmlosdyeprvfirA.html. not recommended by manufacturers but worth looking into from users that use these types of fuels often.

Ive went down that path but never followed through. I think it would work but I have so many projects i never completed that one

How fragile are the mantles after use? Will be carrying on motorcycle.

The bad news is they are a little fragile, im not sure it would last a few days in that situation(though they may if packed well and not vibrating around), the good news is theyre cheap so you could take backups for a few bucks.
