Thanks!
If you are looking for something very compact check this out : https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/Iwatan...%2C401&sr=8-35
You can buy the fuel at most any convenient stores for a bit over 200 yen or go to Donkey Hotei and buy 3 for 269yen .
I use it all the time and gives me more room in the panniers. Comes with a water proof hard shell case.
