I have been trying to find the dimensions (Height and Diameter) of the 2 larger Camping Gaz cylinders, the 904 and 907.
Even the Camping Gaz site only states the weight of gas therein, which is not what I need 
Does any one know the dimensions or can point me to an appropriate site ?

904 7" height, 8" diameter
907 a bit higher (mine are on the boat), same diameter.

If it helps I would guess that the 907 is about 3" higher.
If you can, go for the 907 size. The bottles aren't cheap, but the bigger one works out quite a bit less expensive. I rebuilt my locker to take the bigger bottles........which is why I have a 904 in the kitchen at the moment.

Yes the 904 works out much dearer, £18.05 here in Glasgow and only a couple quid more for the 907.
An empty 907/904 is aprox £52 to buy, then extra for the gas.
I have a spare 904 which I can punt if you need one.

Not quite . It is a shade under 9" 5/8 (the 904 is 1/16 over 7")

If your dog is barking at the back door and your wife is yelling at the front door, who do you let in first?

Sometimes 904's are not available but a locker that will take a 907 will also take a 904 whilst a locker that will only take a 904 . .

If you can fit Calor 3.9kg propane or 4.5kg butane (they are not a lot bigger) the gas is MUCH cheaper - roughly half the price of Camping Gaz. Empty/full bottles always available on eBay for peanuts.
