I think there's a pretty extensive Samba thread on this but it might take some searching. �And was it Bus Depot that offered the setup to allow you tap into the Westy's lines to run this type arrangement? �Extend-a-stay was the name, or did this let you run the Westy stuff from a portable tank?

Subject: camp stoves outside but connected
 

Anyone have experience or know about low pressure camp stoves that could be connected to the regulated 11" wc propane line of a Westfalia? I would like to cook outside with the onboard propane and a quick-connect instead of carrying green bottles.� I checked my current Coleman 2-burner with a gage and it runs at�14-26" wc pressure. I'm not happy with the performance of that stove, it takes 25 mins to heat water for coffee (large perk) and uses almost 2 cylinders a weekend.� If I cut that down to even lower pressure I'm afraid it would take even longer. I do like the size of that stove. I am not using refilled bottles either.

Thanks,
Chris 3
