Hi, I have an older model baby q100 and the ignition has just stopped working. Does it have a battery to replace or do I need a replacement part? Also looking for a stand but the stand for the current model doesnt fit - any advance appreciated.

Raz B.asked
Hi... can I use a portable gas canister e.g. 1lb Coleman Propane Gas canister or BernzOmatic Propane Canister 468g on my Weber Q1000?
1. Is it safe to use?
2. Do I need any special adapters or just screw in and fire up?
Cheers,

Hi Raz, the only approved gas bottles for the Q range are 4.5kg-9kg LPG bottles- all others are not approved for use under AGA regulations.
Hi Raz B, I bought the CGA600 fitting from the US on Ebay, costs about $100 landed here and fantastic to make the BabyQ portable. We get Three to Four days cooking per bottle and really cheap if you refill. Weber in AUS will not sell it but it is how they are sold in the US and safe. Companion use the bottles as do others. :)
Brilliant - Thanks Peter... appreciate the heads up! Take care...
Hakan O.asked
Hi, I just bought a Baby Q 1200 and the manual says I shouldn't use a gas bottle less than 4.5kgs..
I live in New Zealand and our gas bottle options in here are 2kgs, 3kgs, 4kgs and 9kgs or more... I was going to get a 4kgs one as I want it to be portable. But if I fallow your manual I will have to get to 9kgs one... Just wondering is 4kgs will be safe/efficient to use. Thanks

Hakan... you can use the 4kg bottle. I used it on a previous portable bbq and will be using on my Q. Happy BBQ'ing.
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Hakan, yes the 4kg one is suitable. We provide those sizes in the manual so you can get an accurate amount of cooking hours from one bottle.
Micheleasked
The flame is extra high in 4 places on my baby q. There is a small split on the 2 sides and one end and a big hole on the other end.(twice a big as the regular little flame holes). I had never noticed the high flames in those 4 places before and now there is a lot of carbon build up on the grills where the flames hit.

Lynnasked
We have just been given a Weber Q1000 can you only use the portable stand. We still hove our 9kg bottle from our other Weber BBQ (which was big and beautiful but not for un it living) Can this be used with our baby Q
Thanks
Lynn

The 9kg bottle can definitely be used for a Q1000 Lynn. Unless your question relates to the stand?
Thank you - yes it did relate to the stand but we have since found out that the Baby Q1000 can only go on the potable stand.
We do have our 9kg gas bottle hooked up and it does sit under bbq on the stand but just not good for transporting.
Love our new BBQ
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Lynn, I can see that you've found a conclusion- the Baby Q range is only suitable for the portable cart, not the patio cart. The 9kg bottle will still work :)
Josh W.asked
Hi. I see that the minimum bottle size is 4.5kg, but stores only tend to sell 3.7kg or 8.5kg. Will the 3.7kg one work?
1 answer
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Josh, yes it will work, it just doesn't guarantee the number of cooking hours that can be found in your barbecue manual.
Belasked
I bought a Weber cart for my Q100 Weber and then found out it only fits the newer Q1000 model.
Is it still possible to buy a portable cart for the Weber Q100? If so, where can I find it? If not, what options are available for the Q100.
Thanks
1 answer
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Bel, unfortunately, the Rolling Cart that would have suited your Q model is obsolete and no longer available.

Rebecca W.asked
Hi there, brought a baby q in USA and brought home to NZ for my partner. It did not have a hose. We cant seem to find one that fits the bbq regulator to a NZ gas bottle. Heeeeelp!
1 answer
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Rebecca, unfortunately, if your Q was purchased in the US it won't be suitable for NZ gas types and we can't convert overseas barbecues due to gas regulations. If you need further help here, please call 0800 4 93237 to talk to our NZ team

Marilynasked
I have a 4kg gas bottle and I can’t seem to attach it to my Weber baby q!! Any suggestions?
1 answer
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Marilyn, that's not good. Which part are you having trouble with? If it's a new bottle, have you ensured that the plug has been removed from the bottle opening prior to trying to connect?
Swanyasked
Hello i made a mistake buying weber without temperature gauge on it , can i put one on myself or can you tell me what the temperature is , on the three settings when turned on please.
Kind regards swany
2 answers
Weber Barbecues A.Weber
Hi Swany, we don't recommend attaching your own thermometer into the lid as this may void your warranty and damage the Q.
You could look into our thermometer range here: https://www.weber.com/AU/en/accessories/cooking/igrill-and-thermometers/
Thanks for your reply , however I think your having a lend of people with these ridiculous prices for thermometers , why do company's want to keep ripping people off , shame on you weber.
