Where can I buy portable bunsen burners? - (Oct/09/2008 )

I've just moved into a new lab with no gas taps (it is unlikely that I'll be able to get them installed). In a previous lab we had a portable burner that we stuck into camping gas canisters from Millets. Where can I buy these from, and what am I looking for exactly? I've looked at VWR etc but wasn't sure what I need.

Many thanks for answers to my idiotic questions.

do-it-yourself store where they have camping equipment (you were on the right track). We have some of them and they work fine. And much cheaper than the ones from the professional-lab-equippment companies! tongue.gif
