Afternoon all

I have a Cadac 2 Cook pro Delux QR and currently using the Cadac hose and 500ml Canisters which run out sharpish. I'm looking to use a Campigaz 904 bottle and make up my own hose. Are there any regulations on the length of hose?

Secondly are there any issues about keeping the 500ml gas bottles in the van over a suatained period of time as I tend to forgett to place them in the van when I set off !!

904 has been discontinued although you can still pick up the empty bottles. 907 still available. Consider they are very expensive to refill. Whatever you do don't google "diy 907 refilling".

I have a 904 bottle which is a perfect size for my needs!! Be gutted to loose that bottle

I have both the 907 and 904 as a spare, they are expensive but a nice size to handle. Are you using a gas locker? if so I'd recommend plumbing the gas in copper pipe, its not that expensive and much safer with plenty of kits online. I recently took a trip to France and Campingaz is available everywhere which was so handy for refills. If you need a way of securing the bottle please check out my holder kit I designed Holder Kit
Good luck with the project and share some pics when it's done

Copper to the gas locker is required

Nice 3d print store. Do you do a 20mm diameter drop out vent for bottles < 7kgs? Struggling to find one.
