Guys, could you please confirm that both the Kampa one like Ray has and the Costco one work one the standard "low" pressure (37mB) regulator as say a normal camping stove or BBQ?
At present our camping trailer has a "low" and a high (adjustable) outlet, but we could do with two low's and if these ovens do work on low I'll change the regulator at the bottle end rather than making up one to plug into the high outlet each time we need to use it for smaller stuff. TIA LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
Thanks Greg, just had Ray on the phone too saying the same, then for some reason my mobile line dropped out and I've not been able to call him since - looks like local Vodabone master has been struck by gremlins.LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

What do the Q1000 run on? I want to run mine off my normal propabe cylinder and have done but noticed that not all the gas outlets in the BBQ were lit????

I had no issues using the red calor gas bottle via a standard 37mB regulator. I found the Q1000 resisting lighting a couple times too though, but not only with this gas feed, with Weber 445g cannisters too. But once it's lit, as soon as I closed the lid it'd warm and the rest of the burner lit perfectly.
BTW The Weber cannister reg is also 37mB, only difference I can see is that the Weber cannister like the JetBoil ones uses a Butane/Propane mix rather than either or.LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
Well, back from eight days in Pembrokeshire and what a place. Thoroughly enjoyed the area and the weather was very kind for six of the eight days.
Didn't use the oven a great deal, only two or three occasions, but it was definitely worth the purchase.
Observations:
The oven got up to temperature quite quickly and easily achieved +250 centigrade
Stove top worked a treat and the integrated wind shield is a real bonus. Huge pan of spuds up to temp in no time really
Difficult to achieve oven temperatures below 200 centigrade
Did notice that it scorched the grass underneath on the occasions I had it on the ground. Not sure if this is a cause for concern but worth noting if you intend mounting one on anything such a trailer drawer or table
All-in-all, a great purchase and well worth my 120 notes.

Thanks for the write up, the note about scorching is good to know because at oresent we have a plywood "table" that bolts to the side for the cooker to sit on, so may need to change that to an aluminium one.LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
You're not far from me in the grand scheme of things MrH. If you wanted to give it a whirl and a try-before-you-buy (your own) for a weekend, I would happily meet in Glos at some point.

Cheers chap, but we're holding off buying one this season - need to save some pennies having just bought the camping trailer, but the offers much appreciated LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
Can anyone recommend a field kitchen setup that I can place the oven on?
Been looking at this Easy Camp Sarin on Amazon, which is on offer at the moment and full-steel construction, so no issues with heat from the underside of the oven:
