g'day all
Did a search, but didn't see this reported, so here 'tis

http://www.nrw.qld.gov.au/mines/petroleum/pdf/safety_alert030.pdf

directed at bottles made in china.
Chances are, if you own your own, it's made in china....

No harm in checking eh?

cheers

This warning came across the desk at work the other day. The general consensus amongst the guys there, all of whom spend a bit of time in the bush, was that if you have refilled the cylinder a couple of times without any drama you are probably OK. Still worth a quick look.

I might add that gas leaks are a large part of our work. These guys would have seen more dodgy gas cylinders than most people. And we get to see them at their worst.

Thanks, I hope you don't mind I've forwared this to LCool & Pradopoint. The more that know the better.

I guess anyone else on any other forums should do the same.

Cheers
