They don't  have LPG in Neiafu but would fill your bottle with butane. Locals and other boaties seemed to think it would do no damage to existing fittings . Some guys got it but I didn't as I just wanted a 1/2 bottle top up , they'd have to dump all the LPG to refill with the other.

 I seem to recall a comment about it burning slightly hotter.

Fiji has LPG ok, we just topped up in savusavu. Turns out we get 90 days out of 9 kg.... dunno if thats good  or not but its easy for this old barsteward to remember.

 

Interesting to know about New Cal. looks like another swappa bottle in our future then.
