We have come across a few with quick couplings recently and as soon as you push the coupling in water starts coming out hence the tap👍

I agree with the other posts except on one point. Don't just take one of each adaptor have at least 2 or 3 of each. I rarely have a trip across the channel where I don't leave at least one adaptor on a tap when I drive off. Just back from Spain and realised I had left my large thumbscrew adaptor for plain taps, which I have had for years, on a tap. I know exactly what tap, but that just makes it more annoying. :LOL:

You will need a good selection -- but I have only ever needed a short hose

I carry a selection and this includes a double male connector as above post. This allows you to connect both ends of your hose together so no drips come out when travelling.

I have found this type of tap in France, more and more. So this male to male adapter is a must-have in my opinion. I like the one with the tap earlier in the thread and will locate one.

Do you mind telling me where you sourced the green quick connector with tap? I can find many quick connectors but most male to male ones I’ve seen don’t have a tap. we were at a site in Marseillan plage that needed a quick adaptor, which I had, but got soaked to the skin as once connected, water gushed out under pressure wasting a lot of my timed water as I struggled to get the container under the tap. A tap would have been ideal.
