Hello Crackers, I'm new to this site and I must compliment you on the level of activity and responses. We are heading to Spain and Portugal for about 6 / 7 weeks in September, no return booked yet. In the past we have checked to see if we could locate a propane cylinder similar to our own threaded one. No luck. Do any of you know a place or company that does sell them. Failing that is it best to be prepared to buy a new reg with a new cylinder. Thanking you in anticipation.
