The video I watched makes it look easy . Think it might be One Refillable , uprate battery , and fit B2B.I self-fitted GasLow with ease. I fitted an internal bracket for the filler and never found the need to change it. An internal fill point makes it easier to keep when you move on (if you want to) and removes the need to drill though an outer skin. Use a leak detector to check the joints (or soap or a nose).

Impossible to get Calor outside of the UK, refillable can be filled in any country.With a refillable gas system you have to find a garage for gas, which can be hard to find in many places. A lot harder to find than a calor exchange.
Only in some areas BP were taking out LGP none have done it in the south east. Plenty of filling stations on the continent never been a problem in the 10 years we have been Motorhoming.In the past couple of days I've been looking at gas systems. I don't know what I put in the search panel , but a thread appeared with an article regarding BP stations removing lpg "pumps" due to lack of sales . It seemed to concentrate on UK outlets , didn't say anything about mainland Europe though. The article implied some of the other major fuel stations might do the same.
Think I'll go with one refillable and one bought full. If I don't keep swmbo warm there could be trouble.
Back to net to check prices and capacities.

Nope the refillable bottle is the same connection as a UK Butane.pol to 21.8H is the adaptor you need for refillable and then your present propane hose will screw into it provided youre using propane
I'd still go for an external filler but the smaller square one which can be mounted below the body such as this (shown on a PVC):I self-fitted GasLow with ease.

Agree, had the small filler mounted in the skirt on all three vans, neat and unatrusive. Saved our bacon in Portugal when they refused to fill us up, I pointed at the filler & said it was a tank and they filled me up.I'd still go for an external filler but the smaller square one which can be mounted below the body such as this (shown on a PVC):

Given the choice between solar panels or gasit refillable system

Not if you need electric to ignite it and blow the heat around the camper!Chalk and cheese there - solar is for light, electric gadgets, gas is for heating cooking. You need both.
Or do you mean financially one or other ? You can eat a nicely cooked meal by candlelight and stay warm as long as you have gas.

I know some vans use propane which needs the pol to 21.8H adaptor i did say if using propane i would not know what thread is on butane bottleNope the refillable bottle is the same connection as a UK Butane.
That's the one in the videoI'd still go for an external filler but the smaller square one which can be mounted below the body such as this (shown on a PVC):

Nearly there . Think I'll go down the route of one refillable, keeping one Calor Bottle, extra batteries, and a B2B charger.
The rest of my money I'll waste on replacing the whole Scottish Rugby team . Had one eye on the forum and the other two on the game
