Hiding the propane

Postby mikeschn » Sun Aug 01, 2004 4:52 pm

After the near disaster of having 2 20# propane bottles on my tongue, I decided to approach this one a little differently. If there's one thing I've learned, and that has been repeated here over and over again, put it behind the axle.

So I did...

Here's the only thing I am feeding with propane...

And I decided to put the bottles, both the 7 1/2 # and the little disposables under the galley counter, in it's own vented cabinet... Here's approx how it's going to look...

That's perfect!

For all of travelling that we did, we used a 10 pound propane tank and it always lasted us a long time.

We used it for our stove, light, sometimes heat and even our portable BBQ.

I think we would only fill it up 2-3 times a year.
