It comes with a 1"-20 UNEF fitting which attaches to the Regulator on the end of the BBQ.
That's all OK, but the other end has the POL fitting which screws into the top of a LPG bottle.
As my van has a bayonet fitting I can not use it.
Is there an adaptor that will convert from POL to bayonet out there somewhere or do I have to get a special hose made up ??
I know I could lug another gas bottle around BUT...........
cheers

That is a problem with that type of connection. If you could connect it to the bayonet fitting on your van then ostensibly will be using 2 regulators which won't work very well. As you say you can carry another gas bottle say a 2kg. one.

Hi Kiwimagic I had the same problem with the Weber so I just bought a hose already made up without the regulator from a camping store and swapped it over, I can't remember how much it was but I don't think that it was too expensive.

I did like BB but also have a converter, see pics. Works great for me. I'm sure you could get a hose for your Gasemate.

I had my original fitting altered to a bayonet fitting to suit the then van. The later van didn't have a bayonet so I ordered a new LPG lead from Gasmate.
I can now use either bottle or bayonet. Current van has bayonet. Great BBQ, easy to clean and heats up quickly. Would not buy any other.
Hi All
First trip in new van starts on the 24th.
Small problem.
I have purchased a Gasmate Cruiser BBQ.
It comes with a 1"-20 UNEF fitting which attaches to the Regulator on the end of the BBQ.
That's all OK, but the other end has the POL fitting which screws into the top of a LPG bottle.
