Can an appliance that runs on EN417 cartridges like these:

be used with a proper full sized bottle and regulator? is there some kind of adaptor?

yes they will run no problem, you just need a regulator, propane is best with an adjustable regulator and hose, and an adapter to whatever it is you need to connect to, Rick

I have found an adaptor to do the opposite, ie A low pressure (37mb LPG) appliance to a EN417 cartridge. The problem seems to be that the gas in the screw in cartridges is at a much higher pressure.

then connect the bottle direct with a high pressure hose, what exactly is the device you wish to use, Rick

I think I have come up with a solution, I will try it and let you know the outcome
