    Isn’t Campingmoon Butane only?  If so, not very interesting.  My 2 cents.

    CampingMoon: The pics show it used as a normal Lindal screw-top valve, although it appears to also have a fitting to refill from a small butane cigarette-lighter fuel can. So standard-Lindal-compatible.

    Probably legal in the US, or Amazon wouldn’t carry it.

    Capacity is listed as 35 g of butane. It says that it will also hold propane — isn’t there an 86% conversion there? So 30g of propane?

    It is a low canister — perhaps stable enough with an upright stove.

    Flame King: Holds 3.8 oz (almost 1/4 pound) of propane. So Flame King is more weight efficient in terms of capacity:weight. However, the Flame King is a tall, narrow, bottle, so it might need some kind of stand to make it stable with an upright stove. Plus it needs a 1 oz adapter from Coleman to Lindal valve.

    Tradeoffs.

    EDIT: Yes, propane (from the Amazon ad):

    CampingMoon canister, propane
