In propane, that's pretty much the standard.  Going with other paddlers, it is
not too bulky to take.

I use a white gas version that is more compact, harder to keep lit, and
cantankerous.  It is incredibly cheaper to run, and requires a very small
volume of fuel.

In the latter two respects (and the cantankerous one, too), it's more like me,
so I guess I'm stuck with it.

YMMV on this one, for sure!
