Subject: SER1 OT Coleman pressure stoves / lamps


Hi all

Sorry for the off topic subject, but......

I need some expert opinion.

I picked up a Coleman Peak 1 stove, the instructions of which say that =
one must use "Coleman fuel" or "clean, fresh white gas".

"White gas" is not a term that is used in South Africa.  What is it?

What other fuel(s) does / can one use - if any?

Also, my Coleman lamp (single mantle) uses paraffin.  Can I use other =
fuels in the lamp - & if so, what?

I'm hoping to find a situation where I can use 1 fuel for both (simpler =
to pack for trips).

All input much appreciated.

Regards
Mike B
