Tynxuk - interesting debate/definition and one which could run and run!!!
I guess not having EHU (which many small/remote sites don't offer), means needing an alternative source of power, e.g. gas. Which is probably why so many campers use it. EHU, when I were a babe, was the reserve of caravanners or motorhomes but, EHU is now much more accessible for tenters (careful use of the word there) making electrical equipment viable. But, the feeling of adventure a gas stove etc brings - something different to home - might be the reason this fuel persist as the popular choice too.
That 'backwoods' feel - even if in the middle of a park with loos, showers, a shop and entertainment, is still quite a draw and appeals to a sense of escape from the day to day routine.
We go EHU on longer breaks, for the kettle, hairdryer, mobile phone/camera etc, but I cook with liquid fuel or gas! Ffor weekends, I'll forego the leccy quite happily and enjoy the freedom and resourcefulness. Add a campfire and I'm in frontierwoman heaven

I have a 1965/66 Coleman 426D Triple burner Stove, Currently using it in Luxembourg, and it is Fab. Just Bought the Oven 5010A Oven to go with it. Not had a Chance to use it to its full extent, but have done, and it works well.
I am looking to get a Single Burner Petrol Stove for short trips, or when I am on my own, but the Luxury of having the Third Burner is Brilliant. (I have used it to Make a Chilli for 50 People)
Like other posters, I have had Gas Stoves, Single and Duel Burners, but they struggled at low Temps, and at high altitude.
------------- Best Regards
Nathan
