Range Rover Blues:
IIRC 1/2 inch pipe is 1/2" ID and is roughly 15mm.

Would explain things. I'll get one of them 15mm taps or ball valve and hope the fittings are same thread as I do not want to soldering olives and the likes (or are they compression?) . There is enough room below tap to fit the freezer jacket (don't know why I thought only 3 inch it's more like 7).  Was nice to have a hot shower last night  :clap:, that freeze block lasted near enough 2 hours!

Based on personal experiance id have a back up plan! (Basically be able to turn it off in the street)

I was changing a stopcock on my house and the pipe joint later un snapped (came off in my hand, no force, old house, crap plumbing). Also there are other thigns that could happen, limited clearance, faulty fitting  and you dont want to have your freeze spary run out and have not got a water tight system!

Just my experiance, but im Mr Belt and Braces (also freeze spray is expensive, but outdoor stopcock is free!)
