California recently became the first state to ban the sale of propane cylinders that cannot be refilled or reused, as Governor Newsom singed Senate Bill 1280 into law. Beginning January 1, 2028, only refillable propane canisters and cylinders will be offered for sale within the California market.


Single-use propane canisters, such as U.S. DOT 39 cylinders, are popular with consumers due to their size, portability, and versatility. However, these types of propane vessels have, in recent years, caught the eye of legislators and organizations that are focused on reducing packaging waste and promoting a more circular-economy in which product packaging can be reused, and has a longer lifespan in general. Outside of California, single-use propane cylinders have also been the focus of product stewardship laws in other states, such as Vermont.

Retards can't put the brakes on their homeless outbreak or niggers stealing/burning everything, but the certainly have time and resources to ban things that are contained in the most recyclable container know to man, and stupidly easy to refill yet made illegal to refill by......... California.

This absolute nigger of a state can't accept that they have ruined gas cans in all of the U.S. while causing far more spilled gas in the process, so they are now coming after propane. I hope Hank Hill helps these retards burn themselves out of existence.
 
I assume the retard logic behind this is...

The last bit of propane in tank won't burn properly b/c pressure too low, and changing out valveless "puncture the top" cans causes it to escape into atmosphere like the dreaded cow fart or something.

Ditto for single use cans with valves that rust away at some point.

tl;dr: do your part in sinking California into sea by eating beef and rolling coal.
 
Lighter-weight campers use these:

Which apparently is an 80/20 blend of Isobutane and Propane.
It's unclear if these are covered but I don't think so, thus the campers can continue dumping them on the side of the trail.
I always thought they were dumb. My camp stove burns liquid fuel, gasoline, white gas, avgas, diesel, kerosene, jet-a. Only a little harder to use than the canisters.
 
That's probably how this retardation passed, because most Californians have no idea how to build or fix anything, and they also do go outdooring. They usually look like these pics, and are quite useful to alot of people . View attachment 6462174View attachment 6462175

A really annoying, obnoxious, greedy; but far less braindead way to deal with this is core charging $10 each. So at the very least armies of bin diving california homeless will actively seek empty propane canisters for an easy recycling centre bonus. Outright banning single use canisters is just retarded.
 
You can go to the beach and skiing with in the same day. Also you have basically nice weather year round in much of the state. The parts that aren't nice year round are hot ass desert places.
If you're a farmer you can basically grow year round a lot of crops as you live in a medertratinain climate with irrigation.
Yep. Its a beautiful place that has been cursed with some of the worst people in existence. Not much different from how Italy is filled with Italians.
 
Faggots are trying to regulate a clean gas in I easily recyclable container...... You seem like you are the type of person who finds these types of gas can acceptable, and they are the product of California being absolute retards and fucking the rest of the country.

When I was a kid my dad had this kind and I wish to God I still did!

Butane and propane combined? Hank hill will not be pleased to hear that:

Speaking of which, I wonder why they want to ban single use metal propane cylinders and don't say shit about those shitty throw away gas station plastic butane lighters. You'd think all that plastic getting thrown away wherever would be doing more damage to the environment
 
So-called 1 lb "disposable" propane tanks where I live are already re-fillable. A $12.00 adapter and a 20 lb gas grill master tank to fill from is all you need. Does California have some sort of different 1 lb tanks that aren't re-fillable? If they are the same tanks we have where I live, California is banning something as "single use" that is actually re-usable? WTF.
 
I've gone camping in the subalpine up a 10km hiking trail pretty much straight up a fucking mountain. You're not allowed to have fires up there. You expect me to lug a 20lb tank up the mountain on my back as well as all my camping shit to cook my dinner? Or fuck around with those gay little alcohol or naptha burners? Not everybody camps in places where taking a large refillable propane tank is possible.

No, you retard. California isn't going to stop selling 1lb tanks entirely, they just have to be refillable instead of one time use.

I barely trust the retards who refill the larger tanks. I've watched them overfill them. And accurately trying to move less than a pound of pressurised gas is not so easy. Refill stations are also typically not equipped for small tanks. Their scales and pumps are not made for them. It's not just a matter of making small tanks refillable, there's no infrastructure for refillable 1lb tanks and the last thing you want is people trying to refill their own tanks. They will fuck up and people will be hurt because of it.
 
Didn't several people ITT say it's illegal to refill such tanks in CA?

It's illegal everywhere in the US. Says right on the label.

It's because these type of tanks weren't designed to withstand the pressure of being filled & refilled.

However, they already make 1lb tanks that are designed to be refilled legally.

It's not gas, it's liquid, and there's no weighing or measuring needed. A 1 lb propane bottle holds 1 lb of liquid propane. You can't over-fill one anymore than you can overfill a gallon jug with water. I refill my "single use" 1 lb camp stove and blowtorch tanks all the time. It's simple and safe. Here's how you do it-

A propane tank should never be filled to more than 80% of its capacity. A 30lb propane tank does not hold 30lbs of propane. It's a highly pressurised liquid that exists as both a liquid and vapor state within the tank. The temperature the tank is stored at will cause pressure variations in the tank. This is why it's hard to completely empty a propane tank when it's cold. If you fill a tank completely full of liquid and that tank gets too hot, it will burst because there is nowhere for that increase in pressure to go. This is why refillable tanks are weighed and have a tare weight stamped on them and why every refill station has big fucking signs about it being a felony to overfill propane tanks and why they're supposed to be stored upright at all times.

I'm talking about re-filling 1 lb "single use" propane tanks, nothing else. I do it all the time. Watch the video.

Tractor supply even sells the adapter to fill them. Take 20# tank, turn it upside down, connect lil bottle, open 20# cylinder, pull up pressure relief valve on lil cylinder to purge gas to get it filled fully with the liquid.. They have built on over pressure valves that pop off if they have to much pressure. Chris could probably do it without hurting himself.
 
I think the main reason this is happening is maybe not a push to ban camping, but a difference in how CA liberals and Newsome think of the concept of "enjoying the outdoors" vs the people who use these tanks.

To the Soy-Americans, "enjoying the outdoors" is performed thusly: you get in your late model, probably electric SUV, dress in snappy new hiking clothes. Drive to a national park, walk around, have lunch, maybe do a 3-5 mile hike, and safely leave to go back to your laptop caste or cubicle job the next day. Why would you ever need to cook anything, you have a thermos of Soylent and a bunch of expensive granola bars from the health food store? Anybody who wants to sleep in a tent is weird.
 
Like the gasoline spout changes dumped more gasoline at home, refilling the tiny cylinders will release more unburned propane compared to a manufacturer filling them.
