    Butane for us , canisters are easy to pack and can be purchased everywhere. Work well on cold damp mornings if you rotate 2 canisters or poor some of the warm water on the canister. Used one in minus 13 in the high country with no issues as the air was dry.

    I also have a Lido Junior & rate it highly. Two burners & a griller. It is a low pressure stove requiring a regulator on the gas bottle. Much quieter to use & better than previous high pressure/direct connection stoves we’ve had to cook on. Also a little larger, better space for a couple of pots/pans. Not sure why but it will actually boil water quicker than those stoves used without a regulator. If considering a Lido Junior be ware that there are 2 or 3 different models. I chose to get the one with the flame out safety cut out, even though this wasn’t legally required for my set up. It added about $100 to the cost! I did make a couple of wind shields for it though that we attach with neodymium magnets as the low pressure flame is a bit easier for the wind to blow out.

    I am thinking about getting one of these for my camper as my existing cooker has sprung a leak.
    Have you guys permanently mounted yours and do they have proper mounting points?
    Also where is the gas inlet?

    I got a Webber Baby Q via flybys not used at all..

    When I bought my caravan it came with one of these in a slide out set up:
    http://www.marinebarbecues.com.au/sizzler-pro

    Great BBQ.
    I did some searching and contacted the distributes and up graded it to this:
    http://www.marinebarbecues.com.au/sizzler-deluxe

    Ok caravan has a 3 burner stove in it so I am cheating.

    Now I don't need the BabyQ. Still in its box unused.
    Don't need it at home as I have 2 of these (and one other from Barbecues Galore, got a 5 burner + spit and side burner from them at half price as I made too much noise re their shit products very cheap) :
    http://www.beefeaterbbq.com/signatur...93761_1001221/
    OK greedy 3 BBQs at home. 2 on operation all 7 days a week.


    So who wants to get a Webber BabyQ cheap?
    I have no use for mine.

    Re the comment the BabyQ true. Send me a PM if interested.
    Not looking at full price anyway.
    Unused all I have done is open box to check its all there.

    I have 3 BBQs at home, Colman 3 burner stove and a 3 burner stove in van . I don't need this Webber Baby Q.

    Mine is ‘semi permanently’ mounted I suppose. It is mounted inside the pod, but on drawer slides. To get around any issues with clearances from combustible materials & regulations about permanent gas connections I have a gas bayonet fitting outside close to the stove, & pull out the stove on the slides & plug into the gas to use. Takes a few seconds. Removal from the vehicle altogether to use elsewhere is just as quick & I have a longer hose for this purpose.

    The gas connection is at the left hand rear.

    Mounting was easy, just a matter of drilling some holes in the base/bottom of the griller section. If attaching to a solid flat surface small ‘L’ brackets would work just as well.

    Thanks Cuppa, I have decided this the type I will get.
    Where did you get the bayonet gas fittings?
