Ya know the reason why the chemical ones are more popular is becuase they are less of a pain. Yea, I realize they create more waste (instead of a can of lighter fluid you gotta toss you get a pocket filled with these stupid sand bags.) But I like the idea heat being less combustible, granted I never burned anything with the butane ones. I have always used them rather sparingly and with the chemical ones I can use it when I need no fuss no muss, tear the package give'er a shake and viola instant heat. As to where to get a new one... Have you given that big Ed Bass store or what ever the hell it is called up in Gurnee a call? They seem to have one of eveything up there. Jer,
