Thanks. Already got the regulator, came with the BBQ 

Will look at Kings.

Don't bother with B&Q, Homebase etc, there stock records are appalling, you be running around in circles.

Go direct to Calor Gas or Flogas Stockists, or direct, Flogas deliver to your home. Your need an empty cylinder to replace the one your buying otherwise your get charged extra.

Guessing if its for a Outdoor BBQ it will probably be Propane, not Butane as in your Link, as will have a different Regulator / Connector on your BBQ.

Also check your local Petrol Stations, your be surprised how many have a Cage of them tucked away.

If you don't have a bottle, freecycle / ebay can get you a cheap/free empty that you can then exchange. Otherwise, it can be quite expensive.

Yep agreed, probably about a tenner for an empty second one these days or you can get a part full one for the same money, I wouldn't bother with the small bottles tbh there a bit of a false economy, go for either Calor Gas 15kg or Flogas 12'ish,kg ones, Ive probably got one of each you can have if your passing, but mine will be Butane, so guessing no good if your need Propane.

[tunnie]

Yeah, I need Propane.

So I see, more like 60 quid.

A barbecue probably isn't going to care what gas it is, given the right regulator - Unless you barbecue in single-digit temperatures where propane will have the advantage due to its lower boiling point.

I'm assuming the regulator is red, if so may as well buy propane (as it burns hotter) than chuck another £6-£7 on a butane regulator.

I buy Handygas, which is cheaper than the other makes, but its a bit of a local supply, which uses different regulators again for butane and propane!

Shame you can't bottle the gas produced on here!

As TD mentions the feed regulator thingy supplied is red and say Propane on it. 

Might as well use this setup

Red is propane.....Blue is butane...Gas bottles the same
