I was at the NEC show yesterday and couldn't help spotting this profressionally hooked up MotorHome

Perhaps you can show you know what you are talking about by explaining inductive loading
I think what Dave is saying here in his own inimitable way is:
There isn't a significant inductive load, the inductive effect is canceled out by the flow and return being contained in the same sheath, also there is no metal core. Doesn't mean it isn't bad practice though because if a significant current was being drawn the heat generated by having the cable coiled would be excessive and constitute a fire risk.
Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong Dave.

Agree you have to use the map quite a bit. It is easy to lose your bearings and I went round in a circle once but I guess that is the hazard of a bigger show.
I am happy with the way Calor market their lightweight bottle but I guess it depends on how you intend to use it. I purely want one as a backup to a 11kg refillable and anticipate that it will be exchanged very little if ever!
I swapped a 13Kg propane for one with no trouble other than the price of £18.80.

Crowds - what crowds? The NEC seemed very quiet to me. Many MH dealer stands appeared to have more (worried-looking) salespersons than punters on them.
From my casual tyrekicker's point of view, yesterday it was so much more pleasant to wander around than last year.

We went yesterday,just the right amount of people and well laid out so you weren't fiighting to get to stalls and stands.

Not only coiled up but it is still in its manufacturers plastic wrapper keeping it nice and warm and clean. Gonna sell it on after use may be.
