I just purchased the torch and tank. Question, it is not a continuous blow torch when u depress the trigger? The flame stream comes out, but then forced dissipates and you have to wait for it to build up again, is this correct?
So I wondered what the little steam was for in on the refill adapter. It’s to index the tank to the adapter. But I just heard him say index it then he goes to tighten the bottle and rotated the bottle.
I like it ! ! ! Easy work for those of us seniors that aren't as flexible as we were in years gone by. Bending and weeding is just not happening like it used to.
This is awesome! You guys really need to figure out how to properly market this to the hiking, camping, and hunting communities. We waste tons of money on burner stove fuel canisters that just get thrown away and can be hard to find in stores. Good product here.
@dagmovin There is no way to get all of the propane out of the larger tank because the liquid propane comes out of the valve which sticks down into the tank so when the tank is inverted, at some point the level of propane goes below that valve and can not come out.
@@overwatch2671 he he! Hey, seriously, please tell me what you use your tanks for through the year. I want to use mine more. It really does seem like the fuel Kegs are made better than the king or the disposable.
The Flame King Heavy Duty 100,000 BTU Propane Gas Single Burner Cooker is not designed to be used with an RV propane system, it is designed to be used with a regular QCC1 propane tank.
Always connect and disconnect SLOWLY, so if you did a mistake and gas start whooshing with pressure, you have time to close back the knob. Mistakes happen, always eye protection, long sleeve clothes and only outdoors away from sources of fire, angry neighbors and crazy dogs.
Warning: When 20 lbs tanks are welded at the factory, the worker is supposed to flip the empty tank upside down, and remove all welding spatter (slag) from inside the tank, through the tank neck, before installing the OPD valve. LAZY workers don't do this, leaving tiny metal particles inside the tank (like tiny metal balls). If you put the tank upside down, these particles may block the Valve inside the tank, causing tank blockage and no gas flow. Even worst: a tiny metal spec may travel into the valve of your refillable 1lb bottle, causing the valve to block open, ejecting all propane once you disconnect it from the 20 lbs tank. If you read on a certain big site reviews, this is exactly what has happened to a few owners who reported the 1 lb bottle ejecting all the propane upon disconnect. Upon getting a new 20lbs tank, always put the tank on the floor, then carefully flip it 45 degrees to one side and listen if there spatter moving inside - it will sound like there's sand sliding inside at the bottom of the tank. If you hear this, skip that tank and pick one that doesn't have this sound.
Great video. Clear, short and simple, just like process. I just refilled my three tanks. Thanks for the products and video! I'll share this with my camping friends.
QUESTION: when you open the bleeder valve and press down on the fill nozzle, the air that immediately blows out the small hole, is that air being pushed out of the tank as propane fills it? Or am I not supposed to be getting any pressure until it fills to 80%?
Vapor propane will come out of the bleeder screw as the tank gets filled, the tank will have reached the 80% mark once a white mist is consistently spewed from the bleeder screw.
No, it would work. But safely flipping the tank over and supporting it seems like a big enough obstacle to just not do it. You could use 40lbers if you need a lot of refills. The cost per lb is the same. The other slight problem is that 100lbers only have "POL" threads (internal left hand). They do not have the QCC1 thread that the Flame King filler attaches to. But there is a simple adapter for that.
Yes, the 100 lb tanks typically come with a POL valve which is not compatible with the Propane Fitting Adapter Valve for 1LB Refillable Tank Cylinders.
