About the original
The Iwatani ZA-3HP is a single-burner portable butane stove rated at 12,000 BTU, powered by standard cassette butane canisters and fitted with piezoelectric ignition, a magnetic-clamp canister latch, and a pressure-sensing automatic shutoff that ejects the canister if internal pressure rises. The double-windbreak burner head is engineered to maintain heat output in outdoor conditions. Iwatani Corporation was founded in Osaka, Japan in 1930 and introduced the portable cassette stove format in 1969; the ZA series has become the standard unit in Japanese restaurants and outdoor-catering operations. The SS25 Supreme version is the same Japan-made stove with a co-branded box logo printed on the body and a matching carrying case.
