Gas ran out unexpectedly!

[RichardandKaren]

So, here we are at a site in Edinburgh for the festival. I have one 11kg gas cylinder which is a gas low system with an external filler. It has the little round dial that moves gradually from green to red to show you how much gas is left. By coincidence, I checked it this morning and it showed about half full. Started cooking a meal tonight and all of a sudden no gas- checked the gas locker and the dial is now fully red showing that we are out of gas. Do I need to get dial serviced or whatever or is there a better way of measuring the gas level? Wasn’t a disaster as the site has a restaurant on site ( Morton Hall site) and there is a garage nearby selling LPG which I can fill up at tomorrow. Any advice re measuring gas level most welcome.

Thanks for all the good advice Funsters. I’m pleased Autogas 2000 in Yorkshire is recommended because that’s where I fancy having a system fitted, plus it means I can pop over to the Yorkshire Dales for a few days. As weight isn’t a problem, there’s only me and my 3 dogs aboard, I’ll take Chris Wise’s advice.
Although I’m new to this group I’ve already decided it’s by far the best group online and I’m really glad that I joined. I’ll certainly be recommending it to others.
