Where to buy butane refills?
Tweet
Hi Guys,
I got a butane torch lighter from DealExtreme. But it came empty(for safety sake they do it). Now where do I find the Refill can for these? What kinda store stores these? I stay in bangalore, so if anyone knows a particular place in bangalore?
I need it to glue coroplast as specified here and many other sites:

Thanks,
Vinay.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
No sahil, I want to buy a refiller can for my self. They come in like those shaving foam cans. Like these:
http://www.nextag.com/butane-refill/shop-html
Last time when I got a can, I was like in 5th standard, and I cant remember where in bangalore I got it from. Brigade road or something.
Nah, I am just finding a way to form the strongest glue joining for coro. It is for my Tea racer build.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Vinay when I was in bangalore I used to buy the butane can from local shops at Brigade road. I now don't remember the name of the shop as it now two years. If you search you will surely land one.

I guess visiting a couple of shops would be the best way to find this information. When you do so, kindly do update here, for the benefit of others.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Ujjwal brought one for me and costed 55 bucks. He himself dosent remember where he got it from. Should be able to refill my lighter almost 10 times and should last me atleast 2 years.
I also saw one at the chinese elctronic store - where they sell all those cheap chinese stuff like rechargeble lamps, hair drier, mobile charger etc.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Its actually very small and not good enough for flashing large areas of coro. Thats what I have and I got it for 130 bucks from Deal extreme.
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.1320
It does not come filled with gas. But getting from rediff would be better as you dont have to add an additional 1.7 USD for making it registered.

No, its not suitable for flashing large areas of coro. It almost look like the deal extreme link I gave you. You can check out the videos there.
On the rediff website it says : It features a refillable gas tank. It refills just like any refillable cigarette lighter.
You can refill at home.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Franky speaking, Flashing is required if you need high strength bonds and almost untearable parts. But if you are beginner, then you dont want to worry much abt flashing. Just use a simple lighter that is described in the rediff link for flashing critical joints, the rest can be just glued using thin/medium ca w/o flashing.
You can see the kind of torch used for flashing large areas in this video.
Also note that flashing is an art. you may need to practice on a small piece of coro first and then on the plane.

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Krish,
You do not need to flash coro to bond. In fact, flashing coro is a delicate process and should be done with care. Too much exposure would warp the coro. Too less you would have a weak bonding. The best method is to sand the surfaces to be bonded so that the top shiny smooth layer wears off. Now, you could use anabond/CA to glue them together.

Sanding means rubbing the surface with ordinary black colour emery sheet rite? Or some other paper is there?

Re: Where to buy butane refills?
Yes. You could use the brown colored ones (for wood) as well. Just make the surface rough enough for the glue to hold on. Test it out on a sample coro before proceeding with the actual build. Further, I have noticed that the normal anabond do not work well during rainy days.. may be due to excessive moisture on air. Anabond 555 is better but still the moisture content has some thing to do with the setting time.

Great food for thought Folks. After 3 planes with Depron(Biofoam), I think I should start using the Coro stock I have with me....
Vinay, some helpful tips ?

Dear Friends
I was also one helpless fellow -- who was trying to search for a Butane Gas Cartidge from a long long time -- nearly 2 years, but
couldnt get a good and regular source --- and hence I have started making it on my own finally
...
So any one ever needing the same, can now simply get it though me - have a look at ,my link below:
