How do I know if its getting close to empty ? I've had it for about 5 years now and used it on approx 20 camping trips, with each one lasting approx 2/3 nights.
On the bottle it says the net weight is 2.72kg/6lb, but that doesnt help me much unless I know what the weight of the bottle is full or empty so I can work it out.
I've tried these stick on indicator things but can never seem to get any reading from them.
Yes the weight of the empty cylinder (approximately 3.7 kg) should be stamped on it.
Shaking the bottle will indicate if there's any gas left in it (doubtful given the estimated usage - I think I got almost three weeks use once).
As far as I know the magnetic gas level indicator works by detecting the cooled part of the bottle (the surface of the liquid where it turns into gas) and will therefore only be effective when gas is being drawn off to a stove etc.
