So we have a westy campmobile with a propex, we have an awning and the cooker station is foldup job which we pop a sunncamp 2 burner with grill on.
The 3 way coolbox goes in the awning.
So my query is this?
How do I get the gas either out of the bus to the fridge ,when not on EHU and the cooking station. [bottle currently stored un-elegantly in passenger footwell, the smallest propane bottle is too tall for under RNR bed or under Buddy seat - plus door seal are poor so ventilation!! ]
OR
get the gas back into the bus for the propex, and leave the bottle in the driveaway section of the awning.
This also applies to the hookup - I use the westy side socket to hookup, and the electric is the on the inside. This weekend we had the coolbox running on 240v but I had to run an extension out of the westy windows - I know that caravans have 'service' boxes that fit flush which could be grafted into the belly pans - are there any other options or suggestions.
It's bugged me all weekend - admittedly we didn't need the heater this weekend but it all starts getting so messy with gas hose running out of the old west sink unit drain hole and electric cable trailing across from the buddy seat and up and out the window [ the EHU is on a 4 way trailing socket to get us going and this won't fit out of the drain hole]
what do others do?? really don't want two gas bottles - although I do wish they'd do the 2.7kg size in propane...
thanks
