    I have decided on using propane for my post SHTF fuel. It will be used for cooking and heating when wood is not appropriate. Also as a light source if need be. My concern is what is the most economic way to aquire it. Up until now, I have been stocking the 1 lb disposables at about $2.50 apiece...

    Is it worth it to purchase the adapter to refill them? Do they hold seal after many uses is my concern being any given day I can be at 6000 - 9000 feet above sea level. The adapter cost $9.95. Thanks

    Just curious. How many of the little green propane bottles do you keep around?

    I own 2 propane heaters. A big buddy..which is rated for indoor use and a tank top heater (I bought today). The tank top heater attaches to a 20lb propane tank and is rated for outside only.

    For those of you who use or are stocking up on propane or just need an extra tank or two, I ran across a great deal yesterday: Some of The Great Indoors stores are closing / going out of business. One of the stores in my area has brand new unfilled 20# propane tanks (the BBQ grill size) marked...
