Refillable CO2 bottle

[pariahrob]

Hi,

I'm looking for an attractive refillable CO2 bottle but finding it hard to track one down. The only option I can find so far is this one and I ordered something from them before, which never arrived!

Has anybody seen anything a bit closer to him that still looks presentable enough o be on show?

Cheers

What about a chrome 2Kg fire extinguisher ?

A tad more expensive say £50 compared to a red £20 (or less), but nicer to look at.

Also a lot easier to get filled. Look in you local yellow pages under fire equipment and see if any of them will supply and later refill a nice chrome fire extinguisher for you.

There are also 1Kg chrome CO2 extinguishers around, but very rare and again re-filling might be an issue.

Thanks hitch, I might risk a second attempt then.

ian, that's not a bad idea either. I'll have a look around.

Cheers

I've owned one of those from HK but could never find anyone to refill it for less than £20 so I sold it! Now I have an FE + also bought a refillable JBL bottle off eBay which most aquatic shops will refill

I have one of the bottles from Aquamania in Blackburn think there called oista bottles and mine is 1.6kg

I wanted a chrome extinguisher, would look nicer, but local supplier wanted £55 for chrome and £10 for red. Guess which one I got.

Anyway can't see my extinguisher as it is between end of tank and wall, and not visible when sitting on sofa, so acceptable to wife 😀
