Can anyone tell me what size spanner I need for Calor lite propane bottles, is it 27mm or 30mm. I haven't got any big enough, and searching for gas spanners shows 25,27, and 30mm last van had under-slung tank now confused, doesn't take much:doh:

not long enough
Not got the answer, but now have the hand wheel type fitting, brilliant, well worth getting yours changed

But in the days when we used a spanner thought there was only one size, or a large pair of grips which I often used when proper spanner lost o_O:confused:

Our very first van had the hand wheel type, and I agree much easier, I will change it eventually.

They do have a 'sell by date' marked on the pigtail. If it's expired now's your chance. Our old one had a 5 year expiry but now I've replaced it with a steel one with 25 years on it. And the handwheel, of course.

Since 2012 but longer in my dreams
Tried an adjustable, but the space is too restricted because of the handles on the calor lite cylinders.
I just Undo the straps a bit and pull the bottle forward .
