Glass wind guard
We use this wind guard to help when it's a little breezy out. It works beautifully, sharpens the look of the fire pit and helps save gas! The guard is 14" x 14" x 6". It assembles very easily.
Make sure you don't use the rubber feet included with the guard.
Ceramic hollow balls
These lightweight ceramic balls are great to add warmth and interest to your fire pit. The ceramic material will capture and radiate a huge amount of heat outward, compared to using the Zutto without. The flames will dance around the shapes and holes, creating even more visual interest. We found that 3" works well, however there are many MANY choices of ceramic add-ons you can put in your fire pit.
Ceramic logs
If you prefer a more traditional fire look, these ceramic logs will also radiate warmth and add some visual interest to your fire pit. Be careful though, people sometimes will mistaken the propane for a real fire and throw their burnable trash into it!
Just as with the ceramic balls, there are many other choices of ceramic logs.
Propane tank cover
This is the propane tank cover that we use. It hides the ugly 20lb tank, makes it much easier to carry and also serves as a side table. Its pockets allow you to store hoses and lighters. We tried many other covers and this one seems to tick all the boxes. It's solid, has the platform above, gives you access to the regulator without having to open the top and has lots of pockets. This is a no brainer!
Propane tank gauge
We also like to use this propane gauge. It's handy for estimating how much gas is left in your tank of course, but where it truly shines is that it allows the red regulator knob to stick out from the propane tank cover bag (listed above). This makes it easier to adjust your flame size.
Long reach lighter
There are countless options for long nose refillable lighters of course, but our favorite is this mini "flame thrower." It might seem like over-kill, but it's actually incredibly convenient! You can light the Zutto safely from a corner, with a little distance. Plus, when you go back to using your Takibi without the Zutto, it makes lighting a wood fire much easier. We wouldn't camp without it!
Propane tank adapters
The Zutto uses a standard QCC1/Type 1 connection (or LCC27) at the regulator end of the hose. Other countries might have different thread sizes and an adapter would be required for the regulator hose to fit on your tank. So far, people have been able to find adapters online. For most of you, a simple QCC1 to POL adapter should suffice.
Please refer to the following reference: standard connector use per country.
Please note that quick-couplings (also known as bayonet) don't seem to have adapters available.
So far, here are the adapters that we know work:
