The Cadac Quad Power Pak QR transforms how you power your outdoor cooking equipment. This portable gas system runs on four 227g bayonet-style cartridges that work simultaneously, giving you around 9 hours of cooking time on a small BBQ. Instead of lugging heavy gas bottles to your pitch, you get a lightweight alternative that fits in the included storage bag. The removable back cover lets you click cartridges straight into the valve, and here's the clever bit - if one cartridge runs out or you forget to fit one, the system keeps working on the remaining cartridges. This matters when you're midway through cooking and don't want to stop.
Cadac designed this system specifically for caravanners and campers who want proper BBQ performance without the weight penalty. The 100cm hose comes with quick-release couplings at both ends, so you can connect and disconnect your BBQ or cooking appliance in seconds. Those bayonet cartridges are the same type used in camping stoves and blowtorches, which means they're widely available and many campers already have them. The simultaneous gas draw from all four cartridges maintains consistent pressure, so you won't notice any drop in flame strength as cartridges empty at different rates.
One consideration - you'll need to buy the gas cartridges separately, and at roughly 227g per cartridge, you're carrying about 908g of gas total. That's less than a standard camping gas cylinder, but the cartridges cost more per gram of gas than refillable bottles. For weekend trips and seasonal touring where convenience beats economy, the Quad Power Pak QR makes sense. For full-time caravanners cooking daily, traditional gas bottles might work out cheaper long-term. The storage bag protects the unit during transit and keeps everything together, which stops the hose getting kinked or damaged in your locker.

Frequently Asked Questions
What gas cartridges does the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR use?
The Cadac Quad Power Pak QR operates with four 227g bayonet-style gas cartridges. These cartridges have a bayonet fitting rather than the threaded screw-on type, and they click directly into the valve system. The cartridges are not included with the Quad Power Pak QR and need to be purchased separately. Cadac manufactures compatible 227g aerosol nozzle cartridges specifically designed for this system, and other brands producing bayonet-style cartridges of the same size will also work.
How long does the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR last on a full set of cartridges?
The Quad Power Pak QR provides approximately 9 hours of cooking time when used with a small BBQ and all four 227g cartridges fitted. The actual duration depends on several factors including the size of your BBQ, how many burners you're running, the heat setting you're using, and ambient temperature. Colder weather reduces gas efficiency. All four cartridges feed gas simultaneously, which means they empty at roughly the same rate rather than using one cartridge at a time.
Will the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR work if one cartridge is empty or missing?
Yes, the Quad Power Pak QR continues to function even when one or more cartridges are empty or not fitted. Each cartridge operates independently within the system, so if one runs out during cooking, the remaining cartridges keep supplying gas without interruption. This design feature means you don't have to stop cooking midway through a meal if a single cartridge empties. However, with fewer cartridges fitted, the total available gas and cooking time will be reduced proportionally.
What's included with the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR?
The Cadac Quad Power Pak QR package includes the main unit housing for the four gas cartridges, a 120cm gas hose with quick-release couplings fitted at both ends, and a storage bag for transporting and storing the complete system. The four 227g bayonet-style gas cartridges are not included and must be purchased separately. The quick-release couplings allow fast connection and disconnection from your BBQ or other Cadac appliances without tools.
Can I use the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR with non-Cadac BBQs?
The Cadac Quad Power Pak QR comes with quick-release couplings designed for Cadac appliances. To use it with non-Cadac BBQs or camping stoves, you would need an appropriate adapter to convert from the Cadac quick-release fitting to whatever connection your appliance uses. Many BBQs use standard threaded regulators or different quick-release systems. Check your BBQ's gas connection type before purchasing, or contact the retailer to confirm compatibility and obtain the correct adapter if needed.
Is the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR lighter than carrying a gas bottle?
Yes, the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR system is significantly lighter than traditional camping gas bottles. With four 227g cartridges fitted, you're carrying approximately 908g of gas plus the weight of the unit itself. A standard 907g Campingaz cylinder weighs over 2kg empty, plus the gas weight. The cartridge-based system also eliminates the need to carry heavy metal bottles. For weekend camping trips and touring where weight matters, the Quad Power Pak QR offers a clear advantage, though per-gram gas cost is higher than refillable bottles.
How do you change the gas cartridges on the Cadac Quad Power Pak QR?
The Cadac Quad Power Pak QR features a removable back cover that provides access to all four cartridge positions. To change cartridges, remove the back cover, take out any empty cartridges, then push new 227g bayonet cartridges into the valve positions until they click into place. The bayonet fitting means you don't need to screw cartridges in - they simply push and twist to lock. You can change cartridges individually as they empty, and the system continues working on the remaining cartridges while you swap out an empty one.
