Your new gas appliance will usually need butane gas , this can be either Campingaz or Calor Gas they are both Butane , the pro's and con's of either ... Calor can be a little cheaper to buy and can be a little more accessible here in the UK - Campingaz is great for when space is a consideration , their cylinders are available in 3 sizes and are a little more compact. Campingaz can be a little harder to get hold of here in the UK but much more widely available in Europe.
Once you have chosen your gas it's time to select your regulator , here at IBEX Camping we have a great range of Gas Regulators for both campers and caravanners. Our main supplier is Contintental Product Engineering based in Norfolk. Each carries the important EN16129 Approved.

Can use disposible gas with my gas stove that requires refillable gas? the answer is yes , we now stock a IGT Gas regulatorA500i that allows the use of screw fit disposible gas with your camping stove or appliance , it's worth remembering though that this isn't the most economical way to run your appliance. Disposible gas canisters tend to hold around 400g making them a little costly for larger gas appliances.
The most important thing to remember is that it's your chosen gas cylinder (must be compatible with your appliance) that determines your gas regulator.
Don't forget your Gas hose and Jubilee Clips ... most camping gas appliances aren't supplied with these but they are readily avilable. A gas spanner is really handy too for the Butane R29B and Propane R37SN
