    I have a gauge I can screw into the DIN fitting. Open the valve eh voila! Got it off here from a chap called Les for £20.

    I put a blanking plug in the end of my hose and just read the pressure off.

    Seems to work O.K.

    I started a similar thread last year.
    Someone made mea a blanking plug that screwed into a male AA plug. Ijust put it in the female on the hose and open the valve fully to read the pressure on the bottle.
    Make sure that the male has the ball valve removed or it will hold full pressure!!!
    I can't remember who made it for me! But if you search my name for threads you will find the info.
    I am using a Blackberry to do this so I can't search myself at the moment
    Cheers

    You can get them from Pirtek as I did. As Raygun says, it's just a standard 1/8" BSP blanking plug. Email me if you haven't got a local Pirtek or Bob doesn't leap in as I may have a spare.
