Buying gas bottle and adapter in Central Europe (2 Viewers)

[TobyQuest]

My gas bottle gas finished and the regulator thing is Japanese anyway, so I'm thinking to buy a new bottle here in Romainia because to my knowledge at least they share the same fitment as the majority of European countries.

Any things to look out for? Where would be the sort of place I can buy the regulator? Same place as the petrol stations etc that sell the gas?

Raul might be the best person to suggest something.

Pertol stations will be expensive, smaller shops have the bottles outside in a locked cage. Expect to pay 80 lei for the gas ad 150 lei ish for the bottle. About £41-42 all in. Shops like auto parts and small rural mini supermarkets sell the butane regulator that fits on the bottle. Don't forget with each bottle you get a gasket, you will need is as regulators don't have it.
Also remote areas are expensive to.
Where are you at the moment?

Thanks Raul. I'm currently in Constanza, and heading in the direction of Bulgaria down the coast.

Price not too important, main thing I don't want any problems with the wrong regulator or end up with a bottle I can't refill in another country easily etc

If you heading towards BG and GR, they use same regulator fitting. In Constanta you will have many of choices for gas and regulator, it’s a tourist hot spot so keep your wits about. Try Rompetrol, Petrom or any small garages they will have the gas outside and regulator inside.

Thanks Raul.

I like around a few places there but the gas cylinder were either too big or too wide.
So I'm in Bulgaria now, will look around need about 4 to 8kg really in a more tall than wide type cylinder

Anyone know the name of a big Leroy Merlin, B♤Q equivalent in Bulgaria

Everything seems to be very small and sparse.
Can only find gas at some petrol stations so far and the bottles are 10kg, I need smaller size
