What This Product Is Built For

Canned Heat+ is built for reliable, controlled heat when electricity and traditional fuel sources aren't available.

It provides a compact, spill-resistant fuel option for emergency preparedness, camping, and indoor cooking during power outages. Each can burns cleanly for up to six hours, allowing you to cook multiple meals, warm food, or provide supplemental heat in compatible devices.

It's designed to work with:

  • InstaFire VESTA Heater & Stove
  • InstaFire Ember Oven
  • Folding camp stoves
  • Chafing dishes and food warmers

With its compact size and resealable design, it fits easily into emergency kits, bug-out bags, and kitchen drawers – ready when you need dependable heat without relying on propane or electricity.

Choosing the Right Option

Canned Heat+ is a great choice when you want a compact, long-burning fuel source that can be used indoors (with proper ventilation) or outdoors.

It's ideal for:

  • Power outage cooking (safe to use indoors)
  • Backup indoor heating (with compatible devices like the VESTA)
  • Camping and off-grid cooking
  • Food warming and chafing setups
  • Emergency kits where fuel stability and safety matter

It may not be ideal if you need high-output heating for large spaces or bulk cooking for extended groups. This fuel is designed for controlled, contained heating applications – not large open flames or high-BTU outdoor cooking.

Key Decision Factors

  • Burn Time: Up to 6 hours per can
  • Fuel Type: High-purity diethylene glycol
  • Safety: Requires a wick to ignite (spilled fuel will not readily ignite) and cans are child-safe
  • Indoor Use: Safe when used with adequate ventilation
  • Clean Burn: Virtually zero smoke or soot buildup, no harmful fumes
  • Shelf Life: Indefinite when stored properly above freezing
  • Freezing Point: May freeze at 16°F (-8°C)
  • Compatibility: Sized for folding camp stoves, VESTA, and Ember Oven

How This Fits Into Your Survival Plan

Canned Heat+ gives you a stable, controlled heat source when electricity and propane aren't available.

  • Powers indoor-safe cooking during outages
  • Provides supplemental heat in compatible stoves
  • Stores long term without degrading
  • Allows discreet indoor heating without smoke

Because it's compact, spill-resistant, and resealable, it's easy to store in multiple locations -- kitchen cabinet, vehicle kit, emergency bin -- so heat is always within reach.

Designed to Work With Your Existing Setup

Canned Heat+ is the fuel specifically designed for InstaFire's VESTA Heater & Stove and Ember Oven. Using the intended fuel ensures you get the best performance out of these devices.

Because each can burns for approximately six hours, most users opt to keep multiple 3-packs on hand. Stocking extra fuel means:

  • You can cook multiple meals without rationing burn time
  • You're prepared for extended outages
  • You don't risk running out when resupply isn't an option

Fuel is what keeps your system operational, and having enough stored makes the difference between short-term convenience and real preparedness.

Why People Choose This Product

Calories You Can Count On

When it comes to calorie counts in emergency food, a lot of other brands skimp to save a buck. Some even deliver as few as 1,200 calories per day. Not here. All My Patriot Supply emergency food kits provide at least 2,000 calories per person, per day – with real meals that actually taste good.
