The two different fittings are 3/8"SAE and 3/8"BSP. You require the SAE one for a weber.
The SAE female will screw on a BSP male fitting but is loose and may "jump" the threads when tightening (No good at sealing)
The BSP fitting will not screw onto the SAE one at all!

Hope the above helps But as @mfexpanda said..... Speak to @Ligedy and he'll set you right.

Had trouble finding the 3m hose at masters (which deals weber). Ended up getting long hose and most weber stuff at Rays outdoors where you also get credits off the next purchase, whatever that purchase may be. They also have caravan accessories, priced ok.

Yes 4 more sleeps. I'm sitting in a spare room filled with all the stuff to go in the van; all new stuff, chairs plates, cutlery, drawer liners, fishing gear, bedding, caravan clothes and a host of new unused weber stuff. Boys even have new bikes to go on the racks. Wheel and hitch locks 'in the mail'. Ps normally we go without most things so this is a big treat! I'm watching a caravan video, and to say I'm excited is understatement!

We'll set up the van this weekend, very surreal, then off to Goulburn Friday week first trip!

not long now @Gilmorehappy you can almost taste it :) you know we want pics be interesting what has changed since our one
Yes, and we've been looking at the starcraft so long I don't think too much has changed since yours. I think maybe the fridge and aircon has changed. I haven't seen one with optional composite walls yet. Now that would be a change but me thinks good ole aluminium is lighter and I like the look of it!

Oh yeah
The walls look nice saw one at the show..that and outback we would of gone for if I wanted to spend extra $'s and wait.. Although would of weighed more.
Main differences I have seen are the strip lighting/leds and lighting above etc basic design the same.
and @davemc On the 22.68, the rear bottom bunk has an alternative option of a hinged bunk with storage underneath. You can also get external access to this compartment from an external hatch, or from the inside with the bed on nitrogen cartridges. Ours is still going to be the small cafe dinette bed converter ( not storage compartment) so the boys have somewhere to sit and chill.

Ours triple bunks so nothing changes there :) Doubles be nice to have the small cafe dinette or extra storage.
Although been on 4 trips now and wardrobe next to my bed has collapsable buckets, laundry basket in and overheads above empty. Overheads above dinette half empty and we have not filled up all the food draws yet.
So more storage probably not needed inside :) Although my front boot gets everything put back in like a jigsaw one piece wrong and nothing fits.
