Gas bottle

[Trakov]

Hello everybody Today I picked up my first MP and honestly i don’t know why i didn’t got one years ago. However, I am still new to this and I would like to ask you what kind of gas bottle do you use? I would prefer a bottle which i can refill instead of single use bottles. I would appreciate any suggestions of brand and model of the gas bottles and which is the best.

Welcome.
No options for the gas bottle, it’s a Camping Gaz 907.
Download the Mercedes Guide on line guide for the Marco Polo. Lots of bedtime reading !
Happy travels and camping.

Getting t he has bottle today. What else do I need to attach it to the cooker

 

[Blackrat]

Nothing.
The gas bottle is stowed in a vented compartment in the rear Near side corner of the boot.
There will be a regulator attached to a hose that you connect to the gas bottle.

I bought my bottle from Chorley gas bottles. Brand new, full, £45 plus £7 postage. Definitely recommend.

Are these bottles refillable

Are these bottles refillable

Indirectly - on an exchange basis. I use a nearby Go Outdoors but any camping/outdoors shop should have refilled bottles.

always make sure that you turn off the bottle before setting off, if not it can knacker the valve

Is it possible to fit a regulator with a gauge to indicate the amount of gas remaining in the bottle?

I think you can take it out and weigh the bottle. There’s some smart calculation that’ll tell you percentage left of the gas.

See the post from Samebutdifferent as that’s the only way you know by weighing it. Empty is 3.7kg and full is 6.2kg
