Hello, newbie here :waves:
I've got a SIP migmate 130 turbo and am restoring an old mini clubman estate. Anyone who knows mini's know they rust like theres no tomorrow so theres quite a bit of welding to do.
Anyway, I have a couple of small argon/co2 cylinders at the moment but I find that they do not last very long and at 8 quid a shot, I can see it'll start getting expensive.
While looking online for new bottles, I've noticed these...

Could someone tell me how exactly is it a refill? Is it that you jut buy the bottle (empty) and then take it to some place where they fill it for you? Or is it just a normal bottle of gas except its called a refill?
Or, could someone let me know whats the cheapest way to get a supply of gas for a small welder like I have please?
Thank you.
