Gas in Europe.

[Alex_Makarov]

Dear Colleagues,

We are going to Europe (multiple destinations/countries) for a long winter trip. We would like to use gas over there. Are there any universal solutions? Any specific bottles to use/refill? Any specific adaptors needed?

I would like to order everything I may need here in the UK before our departure. Any advice is appreciated.

TIA,
Alex

I think the most universal and available is GAZ. but it is much more expensive. Still might be a solution for convienace.

Thank you John. I will check GAZ, never heard of it. What do you think about Safefill?

Belgium, Germany, The Netherlands, and Austria all have gas bottles with the same connection, so they are fully interchangeable. Likewise Spain and Portugal, also Norway, Sweden and Finland. Most campsites in Denmark are able to exchange German gas bottles. A set of Euro-Adapters is well worth getting and will cover you for these and most other countries if you need to buy a gas bottle locally. Note that, for fiscal reasons, Italy does not allow Safefill gas bottles to be filled at LPG stations.

Thank you, very helpful.
