That cheap camp stove I bought in 2021 finally gave out last night in the rain

I was out at Big Sur trying to boil water for coffee and the regulator just stopped working, no warning. Has anyone else had those little propane stoves fail after a few years of regular use?

Blame the user not the stove, propane valves freeze up if you don't dry them proper.

Yeah, "regulator just stopped working" is probably the valve getting stuck from moisture inside the tank.
