A mate is after a LPG cooker, originally he was going for a NEWWORLD SPIRIT100TGLP but this is discontinued.
What other LPG cookers are there with the only electricity being used is powering the clock?

This is a range cooker and has 8 burners and twin ovens
This style

The house its going in is off grid, with LPG and Solar/Wind turbine with batteries for power

Any thoughts or other suggestions people ?

Oh and the cooker is going to live in Spain.Delivery to Spain is not an issue as he is in this country with a big Ifor trailer

John, most natural gas cookers come with a LPG gas conversion kit. Whitch is 5 or 6 LPG gas injectors stuck to a piece of card that take 5 mins to change and are worth a couple of pound. So tell him to just ask before buying the cooker he likes whether it comes with the LPG kit. I bet they even charge more for a LPG labeled cooker

. All the new gas hobs, cookers i fit in work come with the LPG injectors.

My Mum just bought a lpg cooker for her holiday cottage and had a fair bit of hassle. She got it delivered from Comet but when the gas fitter came to install they hadn't included the conversion kit. Apparently "they don't include lpg jets anymore because of the new regulations and only qualified gas fitters are allowed to install them"....

Could be the shop talking bollocks but a word of warning make sure your mate specifies explicitly that he wants it with the lpg conversion to save hassle
