The most obvious option is to change to Flogas, which you don't mention. Similars size bottles and Flogas is also cheaper than Calor.

Flogas doesnt have the comprehensive agent network that Calor has. Refillable will always be the cheapest option in the long run as long run.

@@BeaulyHolidayPark I looked into the refillable option long ago, you need to be using a lot more gas per year than I do to make it worthwhile - I reckoned that it would take years for me just to break even. I get my Flogas from a BOC outlet and there is a map of Flogas distributors on their website.

Is the refilling done while you wait?

[@BeaulyHolidayPark]

Yes, but it is best to e-mail ahead and make an appointment :)

[@BedsitBob]

@@BeaulyHolidayPark Thanks because I was thinking, if the tank had to be left and picked up later, you'd need two tanks. That could get very expensive at £169 each.

[@BeaulyHolidayPark]

@@BedsitBob Thats one of the big advantages of the refillable systems, you can refill on the spot and if you just need a half fill before a trip thats no problem rather than swapping out a half full exchange cylinder.

[@BedsitBob]

@@BeaulyHolidayPark So they'll top off a partially filled tank, and only charge you for the gas they add?

[@BeaulyHolidayPark]

@@BedsitBob yes, but there is a £5 minimum charge

[@TheHaldenbys]

So the 907 is staying?

[@BeaulyHolidayPark]

Yes, the 907 will still be available
