Only banter Maggs.Thats not what we have heard from the company secretary. 😛
It was the grp cylinder developed by BP and originally BP Gaslight. Now marketed by Flogas. Who seem to be trying to become more active in the leisure market. It would be very good if they could really provide a counter to Calor. Flogas will take virtually any steel cylinder in exchange except CalorI have never come across or heard of a Flogas Lite, but it has been mentioned recently?

As an aside, I had a passing involvement in the development of BP Gas Light.
That good to know i have one Calor Lite and we will exchange when it is empty .The Calor Lite cylinders have been discontinued for a while now - you can exchange them for a regular Calor cylinder though.
As I said, I dipped in and out of it. It was quite an exciting project though and I felt it was a genuine innovation with practical benefits. I was a bit sad when I learnt it had been sold off. One small issue that did come up was that because the cylinders were composite they were quite good thermal insulators, meaning in high-burn applications like patio heaters the evaporative cooling inside the cylinder would eventually lead to a drop in gas pressure that was enough to prevent use, meaning a cylinder that was apparently still part-full would not sustain any use until it was left to warm up again. I can’t see this would be a problem in caravan/motorhome use though. One benefit I loved was that in a fire situation these cylinders were unexpectedly better than steel, in that they would not explode but simply go off with a bit of a pop. Another issue was that the cylinders quickly became very tatty-looking, which was at odds with their ‘lifestyle’ use (but then again, steel cylinders are hardly the last word in aesthetic appeal).You and your colleagues ended up with an excellent product for our use, pity your sales team did not do as good a job at getting a higher percentage of caravanners and motorhome users, to realise it.
DD Just take my time thanks for your help in this matterDon’t be in a rush BB, there may not be anything to exchange!!

I hope you happy with your purchase and no more nose weight problemHardly heard of them until recently, but fed up with Calor and having a noseweight problem we just switched to 2 x 5kg gaslight, saving 14 kgs. Cost was 69 for each cylinder plus 20 for connector and horsetail. All recouped by selling the Calor cylinders.
That’s right as Calor have a tight grip on their outlets. Also Flogas will accept any steel cylinder for exchange except Calor cylinders as these are “ rented” to the original purchaser.The gas lites are a bit harder to get hold of in normal circumstances, as for the sales team not doing a good job, when we first got ours may 12 +years ago, our caravan dealer stopped stocking them. He told us that Calor would not let them stock Calor along side the BP gas lites
Must say we had no problem, Homebase had a good stock of the Flogas light cylinders, 5kg and 10kg and had no problems selling us new cylinders. Whereas 6kg Calor bottles refills are very hard to find and they're not renting any new ones.The gas lites are a bit harder to get hold of in normal circumstances, as for the sales team not doing a good job, when we first got ours may 12 +years ago, our caravan dealer stopped stocking them.

As long as you don't come north looking for gas !Folks will you please stop coming down to Devon and buying up our 6kg propane gas, please bring your own with you
Well here's a tip..... if you don't bring your own you will struggle to get any down this way,
indeed though the problem Im told is more wide spread.
Went to two outlets yesterday ....none
Local dealers today.....none ( They reported a national shortage)
Another two out lets today and the last one had one bottle left which I had.
I'm still searching for the second one which is a calor lite bottle, wont hold my breath!!
Thank you, very happy, but sadly not there yet, almost empty front locker but still over 100kgs. Only option now is to add weight in the back under the bed. I can't help feeling the axle should be further forward !I hope you happy with your purchase and no more nose weight problem
