[QUOTE="sapest, post: 1436798, member: 29340"] I’m no propane expert, but I did live in a propane only environment for 7 yrs. the new tanks you buy will need to be purged before first fill. (Just a chore not to forget) depending on a few factors, like temp and levels in each tank, you may not be able to fill a big tank from a small one. small to big tank fill can be slow, you may need to rig up something to hold the small tank while the transfer takes place. the auto switching regulator is a great idea, IF you watch for the ‘I am empty’ indicator. Otherwise you end up with two empty tanks, and that only happens when its really cold. This is a very good way to manage supply. edit - One tip, if you go with tanks that you transport to fill, check out feed/farm supply shops for propane. In my experience, they often sell propane at lower than average prices. -Steve [/QUOTE]
