Gas Cylinder - Carful

[Nighters]

Hi all,

On our first weekend away we brought a Gas cylinder from Go Out Doors. I did not hook it up after leaving Go Out Doors, instead just drove the 40mins to the campsite.

Half way there my girlfriend started to feel ill and I got a headache. When we got to the campsite I went to hookup the gas, it was on opening the seal nut that i noticed it was leaking.

Having not smelt propane before I did not recognise the faint smell in the front of the van as gas.

We replaced the cylinder and all was well. We have not purchased a gas alarm.

I know they are not cheap but after the above for me its not worth the risk of not having one.

Cheers

The cylinder holder in the back of the Cali vents to the outside for exactly this reason.
