Hi you're right about Calorlite

Then a 3.9kg propane dumpy bottle beside it the screw on pigtail fits both.

Good idea do you use a lite bottle and a patio gas bottle also did you alter the gas locker in any way two 6 kg bottles would be good

The Silver calor cylinder is 500 mm tall with the plastic handles and 440 mm tall without the plastic handles, so I can bring 2 patio gas cylinders with me.
The small side of the Bailey Orion side gas locker is 460 mm tall, so I didn't have to alter my locker.
Not sure if you's have an equivalent size in the UK. But I think I have seen these for sale in B&Q.

Happy Camping

The diameter of the hole at the back of the gas locker on the side of the Bailey Orion is 28mm. Any cylinder smaller than this diameter will fit at the back.
