Not BBQ hose... high pressure hose rated to 350 psi.   Which is 150 psi
greater than necessary.

Cheers,

Jeff

I'm going to guess that you made that up yourself from a BBQ hose and tank
fittings. Or, is that hose rated for full tank pressure? I like the idea,
but usually the hose will be much larger for full pressure.

I use one of these with a standard BBQ tank:

No plumbing required, just attach the hose and you're good to go...

Has anyone used this "Propane Temporary Refill Adapter for Westy & Eurovan"
from Monster Industries LLC sold by Amazon.com?
 I wanted to make sure not to run out of propane and thought this might
work.
Any thoughts?
