must be a so cal CARB thing...they are all over up here
fred meyer has the propane 2burner @$50 white gas 2burner @$75.
simular prices at most camping and hardware stores too.
i finally got my dads old 2burned gas last fall...the thing is older than me and the only thing he ever replaced was the main generator tube of whatever they call the pipe that goes from the tank to the burners.
he's not getting rid of his catalytic heater (the 3rd thing in the photo)...mainly cause he hasnt found where he buried it in the garage 10yrs ago. they used to use it camping in the 60's in their old VW bus. held enough fuel to keep running all nite long
