I'd avoid Guinea Conakry, pretty unstable right now. In the late 1970s I passed through there on a motor cycle from Sierra Leone to Mali. That was at a time when the US and Guinea had no diplomatic relations. I used dollars and some kola nut to make it through.

My advice would be to try it outside. I never had any problems with the original set-up we used with the tank and adapter, but better safe than blown to hell.

There is a trade off with propane but from my 10 years of using the Baja with propane I don't see it as a huge issue. A lot of our camping and almost all of our initial 3 year road trip Isobutane and especially the snowpeak variety of canisters simply were not available. Try finding that in the...

and that it had so few miles put on it in 5 years. Good Karma

Bought Back the Sportsmobile Been a while since I've posted - a long while - but thought you all may be interested in knowing how and why we repurchased our T1N after five years in a truck camper. This winter we spent 6 weeks in the southwest. A portion of that time was wet and cold. So wet...

I'd say the most we've had was around 2% east-west and 3% north-south. That's not too bad, and often the east-west is in our favor with the height at our heads. So, never really been enough of an issue to warrant having levelers. I have moved the truck on more than one occasion to offset a...

I don't level and never expect to. We spent 20 years under tarps and inside bivies on all kinds of Alaskan beaches to worry about a 2% incline in the truck camper.

Not dead yet. Our trips in the last 18 months have been shorter and focused on the Oregon Outback and Idaho. Heading back to both next week (6/20/22). Some highlights from 2021 follow.

I've been using propane -- initially the green 1lb cans, and of late a 5lb -- with the baja stove for 10 years. I bought a Kovea LPG adapter which has a pressure controller intended for summer/winter adjustments, and also helps at different elevations. It works flawlessly. This past winter I...

I couldn't make a toaster, much less a system like the Jackery. It's not just convenience, it's reliability and compactness.

That's about 10 less than what I paid for ours in 2014. Must be riding the vanlife wave. Thanks for the link.

I've mastered the one pot/skillet dinner over the years and wouldn't want a two burner anything. The Baja is fantastic for cooking inside or out.

I hope they come back. I wanted to buy one for a friend. Mine is 10 years old and has been using Coleman 1lb canisters

Any idea why the Snow Peak website no longer shows the Baja Stove?

I have a 2018 Retreat on a GMC 1/2 ton. They are very nice small truck campers. Those not familiar with the Capri might be interested in my review here http://www.truckcamperadventure.com/2018/11/review-of-the-2018-capri-retreat-truck-camper/

I'm surprised you confuse condescension with preferences, given that you seem to have a lot of opinions yourself. Cheers.

Tradition! .... This from a couple of different sources "Traces of ash found in the Wonderwerk cave in South Africa suggest that hominins were controlling fire at least 1 million years ago, the time of our direct ancestor Homo erectus. Burnt bone fragments also found at this site suggest that...

Please don't tell me you cook your steak on a skillet and not over a fire or charcoal.
