Ok fellas!
Everyone has been asking if you can refill a thermacell butane cartridge. Well I imagine there is SOME way to do it, but relieving the pressure is the tough part.
Well I found a solution. Conair makes a curling iron that takes butane. Same as the thermacell. Only difference is when it came out, there was no "sealed" thermacell cartridge.
"So what does that mean?" Well that means the curling iron ran on regular old butane refills, the ones with the straight tip. They accomplished this by including an adaptor. It is basically a thermacell cartridge split open to accept butane refills.
Here is the best part. I have found the adaptors on ebay by the case. The last case of 12 went for about ten bucks, but I have seen it as cheap as five. Every adaptor came with two butanes as well.
I know it works because I bought one and tried it out! Now we can buy regular butane refills and let our butane usage catch up with our mat usage.
If you go to Ebay and do a little searching under "thermacell and butane" you will find these refills. They are pink in color. Good luck and I hope that saves everyone some money, as you are basically buying two butanes for about a dollar.
