Hmmm, hadn't thought about that.  I need to get a refill pack for mine anyway, used up all the pads.  Those Thermacells sure do work.

There is an adapter made for Revlon refills that will fit the Thermacell on Ebay. Refill cartridges too. When using this adapter, the end cap may not go on.

The Thermacells say contentents are under pressure so punching a hole wouldn't work. And there is a bicycle type plunger in the top, so putting it in there probably wouldn't work either.

Good info, I have lots of pads left but no gas. I usually end up falling asleep with one running and run out of gas overnight.
