What is the largest can of butane/propane mix that will work as donor?
I don’t think there is an upper limit. As long as it fits your adapter. In practice I think the largest (cheapest) canister you can get with the coleman screw[1] is C500. You can probably get adaptors to connect all kinds of cannisters, or get them made up.
What you must bear in mind is that Butane is lower pressure than propane. Your Coleman canister is 70/30 Butane/Propane. So you can fill it with neat butane but if you fill it with neat propane it’s potentially going to be higher pressure than the can is designed to take. (If you did some research and some maths you could work out how hot it has to be for 100pc Propane to go beyond the max pressure the can is designed for, in which case perhaps you could safely use 100pc propane on frosty days – personally I’d avoid this for all kinds of reasons!)
All of that is academic for me – I just buy C500s which are 70/30 split.
