907 gas refill cost

[Lubrown]

Well, with all this excitement I got FOMO so thought I’d go and weigh my bottle - it’s the one that came with the camper but has lasted years so far.

First off the ball valve clearly doesn’t seal properly so the thing had a non-stop hiss and smell of gas once the regulator was removed.

Never mind, I thought, I’ll be quick. Had the scales out ready. Damn scales would turn on but not weigh, promptly turning back off. So now I need to find a battery for those.

Shoved the gas bottle back in with the regulator screwed up nice and tight for now. It’s in a gas storage box which is vented to the outside. No hissing when it’s all screwed back together so I guess it’s OK for now.

Got to work out if it’s worth just binning this bottle off for a refill while they are on offer? Not sure what’s left but it doesn’t sound like much when given a calibrated ‘shake’.

I had a 907 hissy sealing ball a few years ago, but with a gentle nudge with a wooden skewer stick it seated itself correctly.
Even so, at the current price it's a good time to change!

I looked briefly for something non-sparking to poke in the hole but found nothing.

We usually have a stash of chopsticks from Wagamamas but they get used for cleaning plug holes and stirring paint… and as we’ve been decorating lately it’s clearly time to order another Wagamamas.

I've not had sticky balls myself.

But I'd imagine a squirt of WD40 and a good prod-around with a wooden pushy thingy should have the valve free flowing again.

I've done the same as above, swapped out an old mankey bottle for a brand new shiny 907.

Must replace an empty 904.when does the offer expire?

I'm not sure to be honest? I didn't ask them.

The offer is not on the website, nor was it marked up on the shelf in the store,

I just called up and they said £26.50 and that's what it went through the till as.

Someone will need to call a local branch of GO outdoors and ask them when they offer finishes.. and if it applies to 9:04 bottles as well?

The marketing strategy obviously worked well, as sominow my bill come to £75 ?

Drop of olive oil (or any other oil I imagine) sorts the sticking ball bearing.

I paid £17 last week - but i do have a friend who works at Go Outdoors so was able to get staff discount

if your a vetaran, you also get an extra10% off the price. this does not apply to already discounted item.

Having seen a couple of folk at Camperjam with the full Joolca 'Nomad' system, wifey has decided that's the next purchase. Anyone local to West Mids with an empty 907 bottle (dont want a rusty boat anchor) going spare? Also could do with one of those roller caravan type water carriers! 'Cos the van isn't full enough!
Happy to collect and give monies....

I'll be filling it myself! But perhaps if it is ropey I may get an expensive refill!

What do I need to convert my Cadac from their gas system to the Campingaz 907 one (apart from the 907 bottle obviously)?

907 regulator to the QR fitting...

I cant see the 907 bottles on the Go outdoors website.

Just bought myself a gaslow setup for about £200 I can get LPG at £0.68 per litre to refill it so should break even relatively quickly

What exactly did you buy and can you use it with a Cadac?

We had a Gaslow bottle fitted as part of our conversion. In 8 years I’ve never paid more than £6 to fill it up & it lasts us a full year with heavy usage. It’s a 6Kg bottle.

I have a caravan roller water carrier that you can have for what I paid for it £0. I can pureaclean it for you and bring to Summer Camp if you want it. By the way there are fridges at Brook Meadow in the fisherman’s hut. Would I use them?

What exactly did you buy and can you use it with a Cadac?

Gaslow 37mbar Propane on Bottle Regulator 21.8LH	1	£8.49
Gaslow Direct Fill 2.7Kg Refillable Cylinder	1	£207.50

I don’t have a cadac but can’t see a reason why not just attach gas hose to the regulator and off you go
