Gas BBQ Cartridge alternative

I have a portable Weber BBQ which is designed to work with a cartridge. It’s fine but I have also made up an adaptor and hose that a I can plug into the BBQ point on the motorhome. I know that the motorhome supply is regulated down to around 30 mbar and the Weber has a regulator/control valve but I don’t know whether it is safe to use the motorhome supply in place of the cartridge. Is the supply pressure of the cartridge the same and will the BBQ regulator handle the gas supply from the motorhome?

For the record, I eventually found the BBQ instructions and, yes, with the correct adapter (which I have) you can use a regulated supply rather than a canister. Now I just need the overseas travel restrictions to be lifted!
