For a stove ...
An economical and also eco-friendly tip because it avoids transport. It is to recharge your bottle yourself (it is prohibited but I have been doing it for two years) at LPG pumps in auto service stations ...
just buy a pirate fitting and be "careful"
always be sure that the bottle is empty and do not put more than 21 liters in a 13Kg bottle
LPG is a mixture of butane and propane and it works very well in stoves and camping car gear (fridges, boilers ...)
Choose a bottle that has passed the recent test and change it every 5 years.
For info it's 10 € won at each refill.
Good imperative practices: FOR AN EMPTY 13KG BOTTLE
securely attach your EMPTY bottle upright in your trunk
screw on the filling connection
at the station:
plug the gun
open the bottle for a ride
fill the bottle with 20 to 21 liters of LPG
close the bottle
unplug the gun
it will make a pschitt with a little gas which will escape leave your trunk open for a few seconds and ventilate the car
you pair 18 to 20 € in the linker from 28 to 30
DO NOT EXCEED 21 LITERS FOR A 13Kg BOTTLE
And avoid storing your full bottle in a place where it would be hotter than the tank of your service station (but already with 21 liters you have a normal safety margin)
Preferably choose a supermarket station (the cashiers are not too attentive) once I filled 8 bottles attached to my trailer without being told anything .. A zx that stinks of french fries a 170 liter tank of LPG
Other times I got thrown or blacklisted.
In some stations there is no sticker on the pump as it is prohibited ... Play the innocent.
For motorhomes you can buy the approved kit which allows you to fill up this way all over the world but it is rather expensive ...
The pirate fittings are on ebay choose one with the check valve preferably (if you forget to close the bottle before removing the gun but do not panic the butane bottles have a flow limiter which means that it does not squirt )

The only thing safe in the future. It is that there may chance that it conforms to our expectations ...
