You need a 28-30 mbar regulator for butane, and 37 mbar regulator for propane.

the bottle that we have just got is brand, well its full and unused, so what do you think i should do, get another regulator for now and use it then swap it over or see if calor would exchange it for a propane one and then it saves me buying a regulator which would only get used for a couple of weeks and then end up in the drawer its not that im being tight but along with all the other bits and bobs in the shed it all mounts up. we only paid 3 quid for the full one, could just take it and pay the full price for the exchange.

You will get the last laugh when he comes to change over and finds the threads are different on the bottles and valves

Why is there always something just where I can bang my head on it?
