Will a 13kg Calor propane fit in S1 Bailey Barcelo
I have a 2012 S1 Bailey Unicorn Barelona with the gas locker over the A frame. I am looking at changing from 6kg Calorlite which costs about £22, for a steel 13 kg Calor propane which costs just £2.50 extra for more than twice the amount of gas. There is enough height clearance in the locker but the molded base which helps retain the bottles, looks about 5mm too narrow. The bottle does have a slight recess at the base but the mount holding the restraining starp stands flush in a vertical line with the base and therefore the bottle may not sit squarely. I don't want to change a Calorlite for a 13 kg if it does not fit as it would cost to revert back.
I have ruled out Safefill etc as the set up cost is not viable against the small amount saved over a 13kg. Any trips abroad for us can be managed with 2 Calor Gas bottles
I would appreciate if anyone knows if a 13 kg can be accommodated in the locker. Tow hitch weight is not a problem as I can go to the Alko chassis 100kg max if needed.
