Why Choose Optimus Fuel Bottles?

Optimus has been crafting reliable outdoor cooking equipment since 1899. Their unique aluminum hardening process creates fuel bottles that are both lightweight and incredibly durable. The child-safe cap design and pressurization capability make these bottles the professional choice for serious outdoor enthusiasts.

What Makes This Fuel Bottle Special?

Unlike basic fuel containers, Optimus bottles feature a unique hardening process that increases strength without adding weight. The built-in pressurization system works seamlessly with liquid fuel stoves, while the child-safe cap provides security during transport and storage.

How Does the Pressurization System Work?

The Optimus fuel bottle connects directly to compatible liquid fuel stoves, allowing you to pressurize the fuel for consistent stove performance. The secure connection prevents leaks while maintaining optimal fuel pressure for efficient burning.

Which Size Should I Choose?

Size selection depends on trip duration and group size. Solo backpackers typically choose Small (0.4L) for day trips or Medium (0.6L) for weekends. Groups and extended expeditions benefit from Large (1.0L) or XL (1.5L) capacity for longer cooking sessions.

What Safety Precautions Should I Follow?

Always observe maximum fill lines to allow for fuel expansion. Store away from heat sources and ensure the child-safe cap is properly secured. Never overfill the bottle, and check connections regularly for wear or damage.

Purchasing through this small business has been such an easy process and a very pleasant experience. I had questions regarding female sizes, and I got all the support I needed in a timely manner. A very friendly owner and great service! I will definitely return to purchase other items in the future. Also, the black labbie photo really sealed the deal. I hope he helped pack the order!

Having decided on the particular brand of jackets that I wanted, a google search led me to Wylies where, happily, their sale was on. Sadly, I couldn't see the sizes/colours needed, so emailed querying whether they might be in stock, or could be obtained, at what price and how quickly. Although closed for holidays, Drew, the owner, emailed me back almost immediately with options and offers of guidance regarding sizing. Brilliant! So, 29th July I place an online order for one jacket (not in stock at the time) which then arrives on my doorstep on Friday 2nd August. I call that an absolutely ace and very personal service from a company that obviously cares about customer satisfaction.
