They convert an old T10 bottle (maybe not one of yours though ): ) into a type of miners safety lamp. |:)

If they did convert an old T10 bottle, then there wouldbe no need for propane to keep it going ;)

I can just imagine the tired Greek torch bearer' reaction, having stood in the immigration queue for 2 hours to then be asked "and what would be the reason for your visit Sir?" :D

Really? Based on the oft-quoted reputation of certain people here, I'd be surprised if there were even any fumes left in a T10 bottle (much less any liquid) after it had been finished with!

Just don't worry your pretty little head with things like this dear.
