How to thrive on a non 240v site!

Merve
I agree the bigger the better!
We did have a guest who used it last year and asked if he could send in an image and a description to the Caravan Club magazine I said great go ahead (better than if I sent it in!)
Not been published but he got this reply -"Thank you for your email to The Magazine Department of The Caravan Club.
I will forward it to the Editor for consideration in the magazine.
As you can imagine, we are offered far more material than we can possibly use. However, we would like to keep your photo on file with a view to publication at some future date but I'm afraid we cannot make any promises.
Once again thank you for taking the time to write to us."
Not holding my breath either

Just back from holiday. Some figures what they are worth

8 nights @ £7 per night non-ehu

5 nights@ £14 ehu

5 nights Welsh national Rally £70 (I think) 

Solar panel kept everything topped up off ehu

Off ehu We used approximately 1kg of gas per day  safefill ran out halfway through ehu stay . Refilled at a cost of £9.  Biggest saving however was not the non ehu but because we stayed local we did a grand total of 748 miles a lot less than going to France or Germany. 

mmmm......now let me think about this? I've  thought about it- it will be filed under WPB!!  😂😂😂😂😂

Staycations are the trend at the moment Boff due to the Euro exchange I guess. What size Safefill do you have? 

We have the Safefill, mark 1.  8.2kg.   But even if I had used say a 13kg Calor the cost of gas would only be in the region of £15 or so.  Not huge in the great scheme of things. 

No, not huge as you say, Calor certainly becomes cheaper the more you buy which I guess is the way it works. 13kg are so massively heavy though.

13kg Calor been arround a lot longer than a safefill.  As kids in the 70s we used to go away with a 32lb butane bottle strapped to floor of the van.  Anyway a 13kg not that heavy compared to 19kg bottle.  

You couldn't put a 13 in the locker though Boff - I have used them before the appearance of Safefill. I took 2 (or were they 19s??) to Scotland and thank goodness I did- it was at Christmas time and the temperature never got above freezing for 10 days and -15 at night! 

Actually a 13 will fit in my gas locker.  The blurb says 2 x 11kg.   I do no people who use 19kg bottles less so now than in the past because of safefill.  I would never use one because they are too heavy for me to carry.  

Friends of ours had a custom made Vanmaster, which  had  a rear wet room for their disabled daughter.  They were told by VM (not the current owners of VM btw) to put 2 13kg Calor's in the front to counter balance the rear weight. 

Yes, it would have been 19s then. I know I had to stand them outside on the ground so the outlet of the cylinder was below the bulkhead regulator so no oils or other detris could enter the regulator and destroy it. I don't like having gas tanks outside the van. I remember them being very heavy. Never again thank goodness!!
