My Veritas Pandora is set up to run on propane although it can also be run on butane. It's very well built and heavy for its compact size. The flame is adjustable and can achieve a good simmer. Ben
Very nice stove. I have one - I had the box blasted and re-enamelled - not original any more, but great for 2 burners in a very small package. I don't know that there is anything else to compare. The worst bit for me - where the wing nut screws on, I use rubber washers to seal, and keep a few spares with me in case the rubber splits. I find that the wing nut connector screws on only by about one and a half turns - I would be happier if it screwed on a bit further. I replaced the original gas pipe with new, and attached an EN417 type connector to the other end - I run mine from disposable EN417 type cylinders here in the UK.
I have been keen to put a proper EN417 female end onto the stove. Today I drilled out the gas entry point to 9mm x .75 thread, and cut a 9mm thread onto an EN417 extension. These rigid extensions are available on Ebay, designed to extend a gas lamp up from the canister by about six inches. So I cut the extension down, and put a thread on it. It is gas tight and working well. Anybody interested in pictures?
The gas extender is aluminium and has an EN417 male one end and female the other. The tube is 9mm diameter. On the brass Pandora gas inlet, while there is a thread on the outside, the inside bore is 8mm. I made the bore a couple of mm deeper, then tapped it 9 x 0.75. I cut the gas extender tube, with half an inch of pipe left on the female end. Then cut a 9 x 0.75 thread on the tube. I used PTFE tape in the thread which seems adequate.
