Where can you buy BP Gas Light Bottles?

Do you need any special adaptors?

Are they much lighter?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Hello Jayne,

You should check the sizes of the bottles to ensure they will fit your caravan locker - dont just take dealers wod for it check a sample will actually fit.

Currently there are only a limited number of places where you can refil the new bottles, but the situation is continually changing, hopefully improving, - note you are not allowed to refill these bottle on garage forecourts, they are not insured for them so you must find a bottle filling agent.

Before making a booking for a site, it would be as well to check with B.P. or your supplier for locations near your destination where you can arrange refils.

I've used the BP gas light for almost a year and they are great. I carry one 10kg bottle at present with a spare at home that I put in if I'm getting low. Refills are getting easier to find, although I tend to use the same place near home.
