    Thanks for the response! That propane tank I linked initially was later edited to the correct link once I realized it was the wrong one. The one I’m looking at is $150 for both the tank and the bag. The bag is what I like bc I’m going to be on long trips to Utah/Arizona/Colorado this summer...

    Snow Peak Addiction

    I just got back from my local REI store which had carried some of SP’s fuel canisters. Apparently they are experiencing SP fuel shortages and were sold out everywhere on some of the canisters I was looking for. I had thought about switching to using propane tanks on the SP stoves I have but put...

    Found a place in Japan that makes custom fittings for some of UniFlame’s products. Great craftsmanship! He does not speak English but I was able to submit my order online and use Google Translate in communication with him over email. I’m not sure if he will ship internationally...

    Thank you for taking the time to write this up! The manual was helpful and it is the first time I am able to see how it looks within the Hexa Pro Tarp. No need to post any photos as the manual's sketches along with your description above were enough for me. I will be getting myself one once...

    I have the Hexa Pro Tarp as well. Was thinking about getting the Inner Roof but wanted to see real-life photos of it in use as well as some reviews. Those are pretty much non-existent. Could you post photos of the actual Inner Roof in place? I am curious to how it is put together along with...

    I don’t have the single action table but have plenty of bamboo IGT inserts that get exposed to sunlight and some moisture/water. None of them have developed cracks. I always dry them off pretty much immediately if they do get wet and keep them out of the rain. Any idea how the cracks formed or...

    Some info on SP’s fuel types: Silver Canister: Iso butane (isobutane) has a boiling point of -1.7 ° C, lower than normal butane, and can ignite at -10 ° C. Since the vapor pressure is higher than normal butane, it can continue burning at a stable output. Gold Canister: Normal butane has a...

    I would wait to see if others who have this stove in the USA can chime in. The USA website displays the can upside down in their pics, but they are all silver which is confusing and leaves out information (silver cans are different fuel types that produce higher heat and are not sold in the...

    The Baja Stove is versatile with SP’s fuel cans (can use both silver and gold). I read the SP USA pdf manual online and noted that they specifically tell you to mount the fuel can upright. Since they only sell the gold cans, this is correct. The Baja Stove in Japan is the exact same model with...

    The double stove, GS-230, I mistakenly purchased uses the silver Iso cans. To fully utilize the stove’s higher heat output, you need the Iso stuff. No other major brand I’ve had access to (MSR, Coleman, etc.) has this mixture (in the USA). I tried the “gold” cans but the stove behaved weirdly...

    Yes, Snow Peak (Japan) announced earlier this or last year, that they were bringing a HQ to the states in 2020. So I expect a majority of the SP offerings to be available in the USA when it is official. One thing I am hoping to see is 100% offering of all their fuel types. There are some items...

    I purposely waited until today, the 1st day some of the new stuff was available to do some last minute shopping in Odaiba. Was able to get some of the items and even decided to get a soft case because it has dividers. The soft case I decided to buy today (gas canisters got caught...

    I got the new Snow Peak Catalog (2020) and some new stuff coming out. Notable stuff that members here might be interested in: New Gear Containers: - A rigid (cooler-like) container where sides have holes to attach the IGT tables. I can’t tell if there’s a way to elevate it higher off the ground...

    I finally got around to putting away the new kitchen table. I purchased the 4U Carrying Case. I have a 4U IGT frame that also needed to be stored. After inserting the IGT frame and the two shelves, the bag is snug. Just right to get it back out without too much effort but not enough room to...
