Hi there fellow campers
We are planning a trip this summer to go around Europe for several months we don't know which countries but at least 10 -15. We have been looking in to the LPG options as see the Gaslow / Gas it and other refillable bottles are very popular as you simply fill them up yourself at petrol stations at the Autogas pump or propane filling stations. These bottles are lots of money and the used ones get snapped up pretty quick.
I am trying to understand why you would have one of these bottles and what the differences are. From what i have learnt so far and please correct me hence posting here if i have it wrong. The Gaslow etc bottles have a built in safety shut off valve so you can not overfill as i believe all bottles should have a max of 80% in them. Also you can connect up other bottles with these makes to run in tandem.
Could I just get a Calor gas bottle and then buy the bayonet adaptor to screw on to the bottle and fill it myself at the petrol station making sure of course that i don't go over the maximum litres for that bottle.
i see you can buy adaptors to cover most of Europe.
Is there any one else out there touring Europe and not using Gaslow/ Gas It/ AluGas and going with my idea ?
Thanks for your input.
