    So now I can refill or top up half full canisters for my cooker straight from the LPG bottle. Just use a set of scales to know when it's full. Beats taking canisters into the bush that run out because you were sure there was more in it.

    Works like a dream!

    The lpg end is wrong but can be made to fit or replaced easily.
    They work well.

    I tried it on an LPG cylinder and it fitted perfect. Maybe they updated them.

    So do you just use normal LPG bottles? do they burn alright as would have thought a different mix?

    Looks like a great idea, will have to order one

    It is about the same. LPG is generally a 60:40 Propane/Butane mix. The premium camping gas canisters are generally a 75:25 Propane/Butane mix.

    In short, I don't notice the difference.

    Vietnamcan is right. I took the first few turns of the thread off with a bench grinder because the thread is not quite right and can't wind in enough to lock in. Also remove the rubber washer off the fitting that goes into the 9kg as it stops it getting in far enough. It still seals perfectly without leaks. Remember I'm not responsible if you do some numbnuts job and fry yourself.
