The only bottle I would ever consider filling is the BP gaslite - you can actually see the gas level inside and you could mark the safe level for future use - maybe I am a coward but I dont like things that go bang and I saw an Oxygen bottle blow once - not a pretty sight

But where would you get an adapter? They look like the butane type connection.
If they were available then I'd love to use one and then I'd only need to carry 1 bottle most of the time.
Try Gaslow - home product codes 01-1673 and 01-1673T both these are high pressure adaptors to fit BP gaslite the thread should screw on to UK standard Butane worth buying a bag or two of the spare sealing washers at the same time they do not last too long when being reused. The fitting clips on to the top of the cylinder and the lever opens the valve in the top of the bottle. Most caravan/motorhome outlets stock these now.
from an other thread: posted by Landy lover
just checked , you would also need a Propane to Butane adapter

Yes Jim, that's the problem and I'd love to find a way around it.:Sad:

I don't think there is an on off valve on the bottle and I'm not sure that you'd be able to fill it through the valve on the butane type connector. Problems problems, I'll just have to stick to blowing up vans and filling stations I guess!

you are comparing apples and pears , lpg is low pressure and oxygen is high pressure
and personally I would rather trust an officially approved and tested lpg pump than a line on a bottle ; I know it means you need to know your 2 times table but I can still cope with that personally
the risk of filling a bottle that has no means of accurately assessing the 80% fill is unacceptable filling one that you can assess is perfectly acceptable hence my suggestion that the BP Gaslite bottle which allows you to see the fluid level is a good option.
