These guys are very reasonable and convenient as hell. Just put the old bottle
on the front porch and they drop off the new.

For first timers, you can't beat the price.

But, you have to live where they're availabe.

I can beat the price a "regular" customer pays. There are at least a
half-dozen outlets for propane within five miles of where I live, and I
know that at least two of them beat your supplier's $21.99 price. I
haven't checked the rest.

Good idea, though, and considering the lack of effort required on the
part of the home user, a decent price. The $15 first time price, as you
point out, can't be beat.

It all depends if you are getting the real 20# or 15#.

If you open the valve of any modern propane tank, nothing happens. You
need the regulator plugged in to depress the safety valve in the valve
body.

How did that come about? Gov't regulation? Hmm... just asking.

Yes, that is a 33# tank (their tank& product) delivered..... think

For first timers, I got a full, new tank, 17lbs, for $10. But, I think they've
stopped that. Now it'll run me about $22 for a 17lb tank, but they drop it on my
front porch or back deck. I could get it somewhat cheaper, but I'd have to drive

Not bad for delivered. I have 4 tanks, and just wait until a couple are
empty and one is partially used. Put in the pickup and go get filled at the
bulk station. Have extras as when the government guy said we had to have a
different safety system on the tanks. Was going to cost $40 to get rid of
them at the dumps after I bought 2 new tanks. Buddy said they charge a
couple bucks extra at HD to trade in an old tank for a legal filled one.
Wal-mart was a buck cheaper. So now I rarely have a problem with empty
tanks.

Aren't the tanks called 20lb tanks because that is their capacity, the
amount of propane that they can be filled with. But, nobody every fills

For first timers, you can't beat the price.

Until some psycho opens the valve, lays it on its side in front of
your door, and kills you while you eat lunch.

If you open the valve of any modern propane tank, nothing happens. You
need the regulator plugged in to depress the safety valve in the valve
body.

How did that come about? Gov't regulation? Hmm... just asking.

Actually it came from NFPA, the same people who write the gas code and
the electrical code.
That is a private not for profit corporation.

So, they must be a failure then... since I seem to recall someone
saying non-profits aren't viable or some such nonsense.

Or, perhaps we shouldn't bother to follow the regs...

They don't have prices. I can buy 33# for $18 and change..... are
they close?

For first timers, I got a full, new tank, 17lbs, for $10. But, I think they've
stopped that. Now it'll run me about $22 for a 17lb tank, but they drop it on my
front porch or back deck. I could get it somewhat cheaper, but I'd have to drive
somewhere to get it.

That is really not bad. The campground here charges $18 and the other
place is about the same but they do fill the tank.

I get the tanks on the travel trailer topped off when necessary at campgrounds.
Not all campgrounds have the capability, but in the course of the year at least
two or three will be able to fill them.

Empty tank is 18lbs. Add 15lbs of propane to get your 33 lbs.


Aren't the tanks called 20lb tanks because that is their capacity, the
amount of propane that they can be filled with. But, nobody every fills
them to rated capacity.

Supposedly for safety reasons.

Many years ago, you'd take a 20# tank to the guy at the local hardware
store, he'd set it on a beam scale, adjusted it to zero out with the
tank on, start filling, quit filling when he got 20# in it.

Put the lighter down and step away from the bong.

Nobody said that.

It 'was tongue in cheek. Take a lude! :-)
