When my old 3 kg gas bottle had passed it's "use by" date I thought I'd simply buy a new one. Poor economy it seems. For just $22.50 I got the old one tested, restamped, fitted with a new valve and filled with gas. $15 for the
test and new valve, $7.50 for the fill.
New bottle was $35 plus the fill. I'm 20 biggies ahead.
Oh, and some of the bottles for sale at K-Mart had a build date of 97. Means they were near the end of their useful life before they had been used.
Great value from Supa Gas.
Jim.
