[pct-l] Coleman gas? + ADZPCTKO

[Bill Burge]

You can use any of the available isobutane/propane mix cartridges commonly available. 

You should test one, I've only gone the other way and used a Coleman C250 with a non- Coleman stove. 

The one you can't use is the large green Coleman canisters, they are not fuel or connector compatible.
