GASPRO Propane Refill Adapter, Fill 1 Pound Bottles from 20lb Tank, Easy to Use, Solid Brass

The GASPRO Propane Refill Adapter works perfectly. It’s made of solid brass, feels durable, and makes filling 1-pound bottles from a 20lb tank quick and simple. Very straightforward to use, and I feel confident in its safety and quality. A great tool for camping or small propane needs!

I was sick of buying the disposable small cans because they're expensive and I feel guilty about the waste involved with the cans. I bought some top name brand refillable cans. And I bought this device because it was simple a good price. There are more fancy devices with gauges and whatnot, but I've been very happy with this device. What I do is fill my large gas tank with gas at the service station, and bring it home. Then I place my large gas tank sideways on the edge of a chair with foam holding it steady. I attached this device, then my refillable small can. I open the large can valve and fill unto the overflow on the small can starts leaking gas (then I know it's full). It fills pretty quickly so be ready. I like to weigh my small can beforehand with a kitchen scale, then afterwards to see how much gas is in there. I think the build quality is good (I'm an engineer), the screw fittings are standard size and don't leak, and I like that it is simple; I've found that pressure gauges often fail on small devices so didn't want to pay extra for that and end up being disappointed in the future. I'm saving tons of money using this device, it paid for itself after a few fills and no more disposable cans in a landfill. NOTE: I realize that some people refill the disposable cannisters, but they are not safety-rated to be refilled. Just for your own peace of mind and safety, buy a couple reputable refillable cans, you'll still save plenty of money in the long run. I've seen one of these single use cans explode while camping, my friend singed one of his eyebrows off and melted his fleece jacket.

It works. Plenty of YouTube videos on how to refill the 1lb tanks. I only give it 4 stars because the fuel gauge really doesn't work. Worth the price.

Great product! Refilled my 1lb cylinders quick and effectively. Definitely make sure you're outdoors when you do it as there is some excess expelled on removal. Chill your 1lb cylinders before use as it helps with the transfer.

This is such a well made heavy duty product that is perfectly described in its description and the perfect size that my neighbor liked mine so much after I showed it off to him he quickly and easily unhooked it from the tank and slid it into his pocket as he left my house. Apparently its the perfect size and so easy to use he decided to buy his own big tank. Not sure why he had to steal my adaptor though. The price is very affordable and he would have been happy with his purchase.

Works perfectly and saves buckets of money compared to continuing to purchase the "disposable" camping propane canisters. I would purchase this product again without question.

At my local big-box hardware store I am able to refill my 20 lbs. tank for approximately $20, thus $1 for a pound of propane. The same store sells six of the green 1 lb. gas cylinders for $60, thus $10 for a pound of propane, packaged more conveniently. This GASPRO refill adapter enables one to conveniently and safely refill the green 1 lb. bottles at one-tenth the price of purchasing new bottles. It is a no-brainer to use the adapter, particularly if one is a heavy user of the green bottles, as I was over the Thanksgiving holidays, when I had three going at once: one for boiling the water for coffee, a second for the camp stove cooking the bacon, and a third for the heater, as it was about 40 F. Over the four days I used 18 green bottles as it went below freezing each night. The adapter is easy to use. Simply thread one end onto the 20 lbs. tank, then thread the green cylinder onto the other end. Invert the 20 lbs. tank and open the valve to the 20 lbs. tank. One should be able to hear the hiss indicating that the green tank is filling. There are a number of instructional “how to” YouTube videos on this process. I found some contradictions. For example, one said that it is best to take the green gas cylinder from a freezer. Another swore that his kitchen scales indicated that there was no difference in the amount of propane transfer, between the freezer version and the room temperature version. Both however approved of the process. Not so a warning video from the Department of Transportation, saying it was (sorta) illegal to refill them, and not wise to boot. Looking at it closely, it appears to be an industry funded “scare” video. Sure, we should never refill around on open flame. And I strongly suspect that the purported thin walls of these tanks could withstand 500 refills, much like a Scuba diving tank. One issue that I did not see addressed: if one is refilling ten green cylinders or so, it might only take five minutes to fill from a 20 lbs. tank which is completely filled. By the 10th cylinder, it takes longer, and I found that one hour is better than a half an hour. I’m still working on refining the estimates for the length of time as a function of the fullness of the larger tank. For now, though, this adapter is a great way to save a bundle of money… perhaps enough to pay for the gasoline to drive to the campsite. Attached is a picture of the inverted 20 lbs. tank filling a green 1 lb. cylinder. 5-stars, plus.

Isn’t as easy as they make it seem. It works. Doesn’t leak. You still need to manually vent tank to get it to completely fill!

Excelente para rellenar los tanques de 8 oz

Muy bueno y es para los tanques gringos (con la rosca por fuera) el único comentario es que al momento de enroscar la perilla negra del articulo da la impresión como que se enrosca chueca. mi recomendación es revisar que enrosque correctamente. Yo en lo particular lo use muy bien y sin detalles.

Muy buena calidad

SOLO LO HE INSTALADO Y A LA FECHA NO HA HABIDO NECESIDAD DE DARLE USO PROLONGADO, PERO EN PRIMERAS PRUEBAS, TODO BIEN..

El precio es muy cómodo y tiene buena calidad.
