Girlfriend got me a stove that came with this bottle... Where do I fill it? How do I use it once filled to refill the smaller canister? Am I way off base?

Buy a bottle of liquid fuel and pour it in... Honestly I suggest you read the manual and probably watch a few videos of your new stove being used just in case you do something silly.

pretty sure those stoves can run on almost *anything, it just has to be pressurized
> where do I fill it?
There should be a cap on the top that comes off and has a hole to the inside. Fill thru hole.

naphtha, kerosene, alcohol, gasoline, diesel........

also "brand name" multi fuel?
>Multi-Fuel: Burns white gas, kerosene, unleaded auto fuel, diesel, and jet fuel.
that was copied from their website

Prolly an MSR

Also, any type of alcohol: ethanol, methanol, isopropyl, acetone... paint thinner, gasoline, nail polish remover, moonshine, etc.

Cook w the small bottles, they hold pressure easier w fewer pumps, the large ones are great for transportationx

> bottles
> plural
That cheap bitch didn't buy op more than one bottle. He's lucky one came with the stove or he wouldn't know what to do.

You should really just use "White" gas, preferably the MSR brand as other brands are dirtier and will clog up your stove over time. (i've only found it at REI in my area)
Coleman camp fuel is good too.

Seconding this, if you don't know how to use a whisperlite, you'll probably end up setting something on fire.
in a nutshell
attach hose, pump, and bottle to stove.
pump 10 times or so.
open valve slightly and watch for liquid fuel to fill your primer cup (at the bottom of the coil is a cupped piece of metal)
when its almost to the top, turn off the gas.
light the gas, careful of the flash
let it burn out completely (this will prime your fuel pipes via black magic, i dunno how it works)
pump 15-20 more times
open valve and you should hear the hsssss, (if liquid fuel comes into the primer cup instead, repeat the above process)
Light stove top quickly, adjust gas until you have a steady flame from the element
voila

I should mention I set a picnic bench on fire and burned my hand the first time using it because I let the gas over run into the primer cup.

You'll also scorch tables if you don't put a heat shield/mat under the stove. Whisperlights put out a lot of heat.

>Where do I fill it?
Camping department. Coleman fuel. Buy it.
>How do I use it once filled to refill the smaller canister?
Fill the 22oz. bottle to the fill line. Turn the valve of the pump off and screw it into the bottle so it seals tightly. Pump about 15 times. Attach the hose to the pump, and flip the bail over so it locks. Attach the other end to the stove. Set up your windscreen and heat protector. Make sure the G jet is installed, and bleed some fuel through the line so it soaks the priming cup, and shut it off. Ignite the fuel and wait for the flame to sufficiently heat the generator tube. It will start hissing and fuel will start to ignite from the jet. Wait till it's almost out and open the fuel valve on the pump. Adjust if necessary. Don't overpressurize the canister.
>Am I way off base?
Turn it off, let it cool, and do it again. Don't go camping until you can do it with your eyes closed. Practice in the wind.
