Hello,
can I ask for peoples opinion of the pro's & con's of bulk head gas regulators and bottle regulators. I am some thoughts about this as I have relocated my bottles and cant make my mind up.

i like bottle regs . its easy in any country to get a reg .getting pigtails is more awkward .or adaptors to fit .

good old fashioned bottle regs for me too.

rarely used to fail and if they did it simply meant loosening the hose clip, pulling off the old one from the hose and pushing on a new one.

no messing about with spanners removing two hoses and a screwdriver to remove the reg from the wall.

The bulkhead ones are great they block up without warning and have ten times as many places to leak full bottle pressure from as a bottle mounted reg and only cost over ten times the price oh: and they call that progress
