Ebay seems to have loads, get as big a diameter as you can as it just speeds things up.

It looks like the "standard" size. I have one and it's takes quite a while to siphon off 20L. There is one with a much bigger diameter (bore) hose - we used one on The Beast and we'd still be there now without it. I'd go for the big one, you should get one for less than £20.

I don't see them on Ebay but the wee hardware next to me sells them - so they must be fairly common

Without doubt the best £7 you will ever spend! I use them plus nozzle spout 22lr plastic for my RC 585 and even in the Sound of Jura I can refuel with no mess!
