Refilling 1 lb Propane Tanks
http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_11829_11829
After reading the thread re: propane vs. kerosene heaters I was doing some searching and came accross this coupler that allows you to refill your 1lb propane tanks from a larger e.g., 20 lb. tank. I never saw or thought aboutt his before but it seems great! It would allow you to save money by refilling the tanks. I'm guessing when you do the math you would be looking at about $1-$1.50 a fll vs $2.50
This will also be a time saver as you will no longer need to run to the store to pick up a tank at the last minute.
Does anyone have one of these? If so, I'd be interested to hear how well it works. I can't imagine anyone has bought one and been disappointed.
One review that I came accross said that after repated refills (maybe 10) some tanks may not seal properly anymore and be prone to leaking. Anyone know if there is any truth to this?
Also.... let me know if anyone finds one cheaper than $18.99 on the link above.
