I would just start using a fire extinguisher instead; much cheaper, larger capacity and better refill availability. I have the same kit and changed to FE as soon as the JBL bottle ran out and it has worked faultlessly since.

most shops can exchange them but they have to order them in for you, usually a small fee, so talk to your lfs.

not the jbl ones no

well going for an fe is no good to me

I might be wrong, i went straight for the FE setup as it was cheaper and looked a more solid setup than the JBL one. Might just be a case of getting a new regulator or an attachment for it. So cant be 100% certain.

most of the JBL regs will fit FE's.

My JBL Profi 2 (the predecessor to the M602) fits FEs fine, I'm running one at the moment. This ebay auction(http/www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JBL-m602-Full-Pressurised-Co2-Set-Up-plus-extras-/150632323920#ht_500wt_1413) shows a pic of an M602 reg attached to an extinguisher if that allays any fears.

what make of fe have you got?

 

[Gav935]

Currently, it's a Chubb one, but I've used different brands in the past with no issues, I believe most extinguishers run a standardised thread size.

Who ever refills FE's will refill your jbl bottle, look in yellow pages or on the net for your local fire saftey installers and they should be able to help you out.Or Maidenhead Aquatic store's have an exchange service. £15 at my local one.
Last time I had mine refilled the local FE place did it for free. Also some gas suppliers offer the service, I paid £10 for one once.
So just surf the net and you should find someone.
