<<Hello everyone

I have a 8 pass vanagon.  I've pulled the middle seat out and built a small
table for my propane stove with cabinet below it.  It's placed behind the
drivers seat. Also built a deck over the engine compartment so it's level
with the rear seat when folded down for the bed.  My problem is that I have
this Hugh  BBQ grill tank sitting in the passage way between the driver &
pass seats.  I would like to know if there is a tank that is smaller that
would be able to be mounted underneath the bus the way the normal camper has
with a regulator.  I've also found a new portable fridge that runs on
12v,220v and gas that I would like to buy it's only 399 DM which is 200$
with the Mark rate now  .  But I need to relocate the tank to a better spot.
Space is limited not being a real camper and all.  The fridge will go behind
the pass seat if the works out as planned. Any help on locating a suitable
tank will make me and the kids happy camper are next trip out to the woods
Thanks all.

You can find a small tank and cabinet to hold it at camper supply dealers
like Reimo (www.reimo.de)

You put the small tank in a sealed cabinet that is vented to the outside
through the floor.  If any propane would leak, it would not collect inside of
your van.
