can we install 2 aux port for appliances like 2 lanterns i am not entirely sure how i would plumb all this as i have only ever played with a propane tree and i can run my 2 stoves and lantern off of that

You need a manifold with separate valves for each appliance. No mystery - go to a plumbing supply shop for the parts.

so i don't need to go find some weird *** LPG fittings

There is "high pressure" and "low pressure". You need the appropriate regulator for whatever appliances you are hooking up. Some appliances have internal regulators.

If everything you have is "low pressure", then all you need is one regulator and assorted hoses and some brass fittings. (And shutoff valves are good too.)


To eliminate the little bottles usually takes a special adapter. Like this:
