There are in fact two types - Propane and Butane. Butane operates at a lower pressure (so can have easier-fit connectors - changing a Butane cylinder just needs you to unclip the regulator and clip it onto the new cylinder, Propane needs a spanner to change cylinders). The snag is that Butane freezes at low temperatures - not much use when you wake up in a freezing cold motorhome and want to fire up the heater, then discover the gas has frozen in the cylinder and nothing happens! Over here, most use Butane though for obvious reasons Propane is popular in colder areas and in mainland Europe.
