Coleman Max canister adaptor on 07/28/2008 18:27:42 MDT Print View

With the ‘changing the valve's orientation’ discussion going on I thought this would be a good time to post my latest creation which is an adaptor to fit std screw thread remote canister valves on Coleman Max canisters. It currently weighs 9.3 grams, I hope to improve on that.

The adaptor will fit the MSR Windpro valve and the Brunton stove stand valve saving the need for a canister stand.

The fuel line has been blanked out for safety reasons.

Tony- Thanks! The adaptor (and valve) inspired me--I'm now in the process of chopping up a Powermax stove. Quite frustrated with the weight of valve/jet/fuel line weights. I'm chomping at the bit to make my Litemax a remote unit, but haven't been able to figure out how to separate jet from valve &/or attach line to valve and somehow rig jet...
