Hi everyone. A tweet from Kirsty at Morrisons confirms that they are on board with Safefill. Filling is now allowed at all their sites. Show the cylinder to the cashier and away you go. This is great news for those who use gas and want to save money.

Congratulations to Safefill for your dogged determination to bring this product to market against overwhelming odds! The first crack has appeared in the dam! Thanks to all those who wrote to Morrison’s to ask why they couldn’t fill and thanks to Morrison’s for approaching this with an open and enquiring mind to cut through the rumours lies and propaganda surrounding this exceptional product. It is a better world today for the LPG user.

Is there anywhere I can read what the ISO says without purchasing it DD. It won't let me beyond what you have quoted above without parting with the cash.

The only reference I can find relating to 5 year testing of composite cylinders refers to breathing apparatus ones, as used by the fire brigade.

I was looking at getting a refillable of some kind. However, I think I require a bit more clarity on how often they should be inspected first.

Steve. ynotkickaroonow@hotmail.com Talk to someone who has used these things and who has first hand experience. Going off grid will save you about £10 a night average. 14 day holiday- your Safefill is paid for!!  You can stick with Calor, I’m sure they’d love it but you are the loser in that scenario.

Not that his response is unbiased! Mine paid for itself after 15 nights and I do a hell of lot more than that in a year. It’s a no brainer

I beg your pardon fella! My response is totally unbiased. I simply said that if it does not pay for itself in my time frame I ain't interested. How the hell is that biased. Don't start striking out at me Merve! If Steve is likely to off grid regularly then it may well be a godsend. 

SO as gar as impugning me either take a deep breath for pause and clarity or wind your neck in fella.

Does that sound as if you annoyed me? laughing If it was not intended you are forgiven. wink

Thanks Merve.

My interest at the moment isn't particularly about saving money, as we currently don't use enough gas. Although it might well be in the future, if we change to a MH and use Aires for overnighting. Presently I am just interested in having a lightweight cylinder with the demise of the Calor lite. They say there will be a new version, but who knows.

I can assure you that there will be a new version. I’ll also stick my neck out Steve and say that it will be a composite and probably manufactured by Hexagon Ragasco. The only difference of course is you’ll have to rent it!

Easy, you have known me now for many a year and I have never found you to be aggressive, rude, or obnoxious. The comment was not directed at you and if you thought it was, then I apologise. It was aimed at DD who has already admitted that he isn’t happy with Safefill. Not that I mind that, he’s entitled to his opinion like everyone else but I have known Safefill long enough now to know that they are as straight as a die and will only give you the facts. To suggest that you will get biased advice is not only incorrect but nasty. They don’t care if you don’t want Safefill and choose another system, what they have done is given us choice and freedom from high rental charges. That’s it! Sorry again mate if you thought I was putting you in the cross hairs.

I did wonder ............ No worries. And I wasn't too upset so I withdraw my 'wind yer neck in' crack. wink

I think I might withdraw from this thread. 2 people who I respect have taken offence by misunderstanding my replies. That is not a good situation. I hope you all see through the fog of misinformation and arrive at a sensible conclusion. The laws surrounding LPG are many and complex and with UKLPG dragging their feet to bring out the rewritten Sht26 and not being able to find a link to the Red Guide, again, revised has only led to old and out of date info being placed on here. I will be no part of that. I hope that all you Safefill users find Morrisons a breeze to use which is what this thread is supposed to have been about. I will report any further developments in the Safefill sphere but suffice it to say, more and more retailers are getting involved. You can be damn sure that they have all checked and checked again their legal obligations. - and accepted Safefill as legitimate. Thanks to all.
