EN 417 named, and a yield in meals
NEON Isobutane canister, 100 g (3.5 oz)
One of two canisters on this shelf to name EN 417 outright, with the mix at 75/25 and an unusual published yield: about twenty freeze-dried meals or thirty cups of coffee.
On the maker’s own page
An isobutane fuel canister, portable camping gas 100 g (3.5 oz), suitable for all seasons,
two cans.
NEON states a premium blend of 75 per cent isobutane and 25 per cent propane for
higher vapor pressure and cold-weather performance at all four seasons and all
altitudes; 100 g (3.52 oz) a can, enough for up to 20 freeze-dried meals or about
30 cups of coffee, with actual usage varying by stove system, weather, altitude
and cooking style; a size of 3.6 × 3 inches at 100 grams, with a tight-fitting
plastic cap keeping the valve leak-proof in storage; a standard EN417 screw-in
connector compatible with most backpacking stoves, burners and lanterns, with
usage instructions printed on the canister; and two cans in the pack.
No gross weight. No resealable statement.
EN four one seven, named
What a manual can be checked against.
This shelf’s introduction describes the threaded canister with its 7/16 inch UNEF
screw valve as what most modern backpacking stoves use, and says to read the
stove’s manual and match the wording exactly.
“Screw-on style fitting” describes the same thing in words a manual does not use.
EN417 is a term that can be searched for.
Six canisters on this shelf: two name the standard, two say screw-on, one is a
notched-collar cartridge of a different system, one names no fitting at all.
Twenty meals, or thirty coffees
The only yield on this shelf.
A hundred grams of gas means nothing until it becomes dinners. Twenty freeze-dried
meals, or thirty cups of coffee, which is the same figure stated another way —
boiling half a liter is most of what a backpacking stove does.
And the caveat is attached rather than omitted: usage varies by stove, weather,
altitude and cooking style. A windy pitch at altitude will not reach it.
Seventy-five and twenty-five
A round hundred.
The other listing with the same text publishes the same figures. The third mix on
this shelf is 72, 26 and 2 per cent other — which adds up and admits a
remainder.
This shelf’s introduction makes the mix the cold-weather variable: butane-heavy
mixes lose pressure as the temperature drops, and propane is what keeps the
pressure up when it is cold.
The same five bullets as another brand
Word for word.
The same blend sentence, the same twenty meals and thirty coffees, the same
3.6 by 3 inches, the same EN417 phrasing — on a listing from a different brand
with a different EAN, on this shelf.
Two brands selling one canister under one text cannot be told apart on
specification. What separates them is the price and the pack, and this page says
so rather than pretending otherwise.
NEON’s own instructions on the canister carry the handling. Nothing here replaces
them, and nothing on this page describes any product as safe.
