Abstract: A gas powered appliance includes housing structure with a fuel inlet port and recess structure for receiving fuel canister structure in communication with the inlet port. Fuel supply conduit structure in the housing structure has an outlet port. Fuel control structure in the housing structure controls flow of fuel from the inlet port through the fuel supply conduit structure to the outlet port. Fuel canister structure is adapted for disposition in the recess structure. The fuel canister structure has a body portion, outlet valve structure on the body portion for coupling to the inlet port when the fuel canister structure is disposed in the recess structure, and check valve structure disposed in the fuel canister body portion in communication with the outlet valve structure for preventing liquid fuel from reaching the flow control structure.
