I'm sure someone has answered this but I can't find a thread:

I have bought a new Kampa Alfresco double burner/grill which is exactly the same as my previous dble burner/grill apart from the gas hose connector.

Previous one was a knurled screw-on connector which started leaking and could not be repaired so is now in the garage.

The new stove has a tapered, ribbed stem which I assume needs a hose/jubilee clip attachment. Have I got that right or is there a quick connection that doesn't need a screwdriver every time I connect/disconnect?

the fitting you have is as you say for a hose plus clip,as to quick release you can add your own.

you would attach a small length of hose to the cooker then add one of the above.

Thanks wongers - I presume that thing is two pieces locked together - each piece to be worm drive/jubilee clipped to hoses and twist connected?

Many thanks - off to find one right now as Norfolk beckons on Wednesday.

yes it is a two peace you fit one to each end with clip and they snap togever,also if you connect the female part on the gas bottle side it will cut off the supply when disconnected.

When we had a butane stove, I just left the hose and regulator permanently attached to the cooker. The quick release connectors are useful if you want to use both Calor and Campingaz at different times.

Leave it attached to the stove with a jubilee clip.

Unless you need to use 'em for another appliance,I'd be just leaving the hose & regulator attached to stove(..as you'd be disconnecting the reg' from the gas bottle anyway..)
