If there is not enough vapor space then a temperature change could cause the can to burst. You could also feed straight liquid to an appliance causing quite a hazard. You will quickly notice that when refilling these tanks with the adapter you will NEVER be able to fill the tank ! That's it that's all there is to the story. I've been doing it for years and if you use common sense in doing so you will not have any problems either.
