Connecting external wok burner to a gas cooktop

TL;DR : Is it possible to connect an external wok cooker to an existing gas cooktop ?

I have a usual gas cooktop. Something like this https://omegaappliances.com.au/product/omega-60cm-4-burner-g…. I am planning to do buy a wok burner - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Rambo-High-Pressure-Gas-Wok-Burn…
It will connect fine to a gas bottle - but couldn't I simply plug this into the existing gas cooktop's gas valve? Gas valve accessible by simply removing the burner cap. Having never used an external burner, I am unsure if all it will need is an adapter to plug into the valve ?

    Most houses use Natural Gas, not LPG. They don't burn the same. Don't use a burner designed for the wrong type of gas.

    • Thanks. I hadn't thought of this. Off to find out what kinda gas I got.

    That gas burner is for outdoor use only. You cannot use it inside due to carbon monoxide.

    Do not proceed with this idea.

      Even if the inside is very well ventilated and has a powerful extractor?

      • You can try, but the only way to find out you failed is when your 6 feet under. So not a good idea IMHO

  • They can be converted by making the gas nozzle smaller
