    Hello knowledgeable people,
    We are new too camper van ownership and just jumped in at the deep end, a 12 week tour of Europe, to Greece and back. Question about gas, Van came with 2 propane cylinders, connectors are I believe POL type, different to the ones used here. I got snookered in France and ended up buying a cylinder and regulator. Is there any universal system? How many types are there in Europe? What about an LPG tank and fitting for refueling? Where can I get cylinders filled near Limerick? Thanks in advance,
    Tony

    You will probably get them filled or exchanged at Watchhouse cross in LK.

    How did you manage to go through two bottles of gas in 12 weeks? I have only used about four bottles in the last 6 years!!

    Think Irish propane bottles are a butane thread, you can get a pol to butane adapter if you want to get irish bottles. You can sometimes pick the bottles up from a friendly staff member at the local amenity center thus avoiding the cylinder charge.

    If you call gad products they'd advise you on the adapter.
