jetboil fuel

“Glad to see the sight is back.

I am trying to work my way around a slight problem that I cant resolve from my end. I use my jetboil constantly over here and have 3 100gr cylinders left. The issue is getting replacements. Does anyone know who will ship them overseas? There are some pesky rules about sending compressed fuel via mail etc but there has to be someone who does this? Any ideas? Thanks in advance”

“Call REI and ask them. I would think they have to deal with this question all the time”

“REI said Mountain Gear and Mtn Gear said NO.”

“Hey look at Birch: http://www.jetboil.com/testimonials”

“If denatured Alcohol or Heet is available to you, this stove might be a better choice:

I got a 20 min. burn time on 1oz of fuel, it can burn Esbit too. (Simmers well)”

“would they even know? i mean if sass shipped you some via ups/fed ex or what ever would they have ways of knowing what it is?”

“I know that dude.”

“all my posts are disappearing!

Thrifty, US customs are pretty thorough. If they did find the canisters through inspection or xray it might get ugly. We cannot use Fedex or UPS to ship overseas to an APO address, Post Office only.”

“how did he get the cans he has over there?”

“yogi, i shipped em via slowboat with my other gear. that was awesome, took two months.”
