Something most people dont know is - Only open the gas bottle half a turn you will get all the gas you need and in an emergency it is quickly shut off We carry 2 bottles, the bottle not being used has brass stopper in it, also when you swap a gas bottle I always check the valve is shut hard and remove bottles from confined spaces ASAP regards

Itās not the bottle itself . Itās when gas leaks . Fills cabin or van . Then this area becomes a bomb . With fuel such as petrol it has to evaporate before it can burn .
