Using this model for 6 months now. Specs found here. CLeese UK has models that can switch from an empty gas tank to another called an automatic changeover but these are for industrial or caravan park. There's a domestic model but either butane or propane but the tank fitment is meant for larger cylinders typically found in hotels or restaurants.

The lever on the Comet (Comap) need to be careful to know how to operate but otherwise it's good.

Good primer on gas regulators here.

Just be mindful of the secure release method so as not to mangle or damage it when installing and releasing it from a gas tank. Thanks for the YouTube video which is useful esp from the segment between 0:51-0:53 secs. I will print a screenshot of that part that shows how to release, annotate and paste it on the inside of the cabinet.

What spurred that decision though? Past bad experience with leakage or just personal choice?

Ok, seems more like a problem I was facing until we use the Cleese. There's hint of leakage due to the smell until we switched to using the Cleese. Nowadays, gas run out because other users either never tell that is finished or never bother to ask gas tong uncle to bring replacement over.

There's another player in the market as I recently discovered. My gas man told me the pin on the Cleese Comet (Comap) doesn't go down as deep anymore. Could be wear 'n tear and a combination of user induced manhandling that might have damaged it. Had it changed to IGT A-100IS/A-120IS from IGT.

Still, the Cleese Comet (Comap) remains one of the best regulator I've used.
