a 3.9KG Propane bottle is the same size as a 4.5kg butane.When we got our dandy it had 2x 2.7kg Campingaz bottles in the front locker.We used up the gas then sold the empty bottles and regulator for £20 on ebay,campingaz is great if your touring about on the continent as its available everywhere but its expensive.I believe campingaz is 80% butane 20% propane so it work at lower temperature than butane alone.
Since we camp all year round i would only use Propane,i think one burns cleaner than the other not sure if its propane or butane though.
