Ok, I know there is a high likely hood this will "fuel" a argument. But I do not have that intent. I already know its not the correct way to do this, if you want to argue that point start another thread. This thread is a question about the way LP gas flows.
I do A LOT of dry camping, and use my Mr. Heater Big Buddy for the coach. Works great, I removed the onboard furnace and now just use the Big Buddy. So LP use is a concern. I have a LP frig, heater buddy, and instant on water heater.
Anyway, I wanted to be able to carry a extra 20LB tank to hookup to the main onboard tank. I know they make things like extend a stay, and Ts that go after the main onboard tank between the tank and regulator. My issue is theres no room to be able to plumb in stuff like that.
I bought a adaptor, and all the hook ups, that will allow me to directly hook up a 20lb tank direct to my fill on the main tank.
Thats where my question starts.....
I do not think LP will flow from a full 20 lb tank into a empty onboard tank, please let me know if I am wrong there.
In order for me to use the 20 lb tank, I'm pretty sure the only way it will flow is if I invert the 20 lb tank and raise it higher then the onboard tank.
Is that correct? Is that the way to flow LP from the small tank into the empty large tank???
