Ragasco LPG bottle

Corey, 2 things:

1. Your truck is dirty; just not used to seeing that...
2. Tell me that you have more than that bungy cord and folding chair securing that potentially explosive projectile.

That spooge you see above the doors rubber gasket is from the two old growth fir trees my rig is parked under.

It mixes with the rain and oozes in there.
A shop vac takes it off very easily.

Oh yes.
You can see an orange ratchet tie down strap in the rear on top of the lounger, and I have one up front too for the lounger.
They both weave through the ECS cases.

I have a blue ratchet strap for the tank.
It was just not on when I shot the pic earlier today, as I was waiting for Fed Ex to drop off a can opener I ordered yesterday after seeing the can opener thread in the Chef section.
The can opener goes with the kitchen stuff in those two white drawers.

The blue strap is on and the tank is mighty safe and tight.

Another thing.... if that cylinder is laying on its side, tell me its designed for that. A tank or cylinder that ISNT designed for for horizontal svc, the relief valve is is now below the liquid level(relief valve is part of the svc valve), and wont work properly, if at all.

I certainly hope it is.
I work with propane tanks on a daily basis at my job, and we store tanks similar to this on their sides too.

I would have to call the place up that filled my tank the other day, but they are closed until tomorrow morning.

 

[Corey]

Never did call the propane place up, been to busy doing last minute things before my trip.

But I just got into the back of the rig to do some stuff, and I was able to flip the bottle up right after moving that HUGE Cabelas lounger chair around some.

I'd appreciate hearing about any known problems with the Lite tanks as well since we are using them. Otherwise I'm going to keep worrying...

We have used a 20lb tank only since this spring but just ordered a 10lb one - easier to carry out for outside cooking.

I will sell the 20lb tank if anyone can tell me the best way to get the propane out of it (into the 10lb tank would be ideal, but otherwise a safe way to vent it?)

The propane fill people also commented favorably on the Lite tank and we sure have liked it so far.

I thought I saw some offered by Camp Chef in a catalog I have. I'll check it out tomorrow. :sombrero:
