Very good and best video I've found! Thank you! A few questions. 1. When the white mist appear, it means it hits the 80% full? 2. I see you mention the stamp should be no older than 10 years, does it mean I should replace my tank every 10 years?
Good to know what we were doing 30 years ago [in Australia] when I was filling bottles was without safety, bare hands, no earthing, plastic bench. We even had our tank in a small shed, aka the gas was building up inside. Joy.
Same, first job of the morning at the local hardware when I was 12 years old working my first job. No safety gear, no earthing, filling on a couple milk crates in the carpark with people just pulling up next to me, occasionally still while smoking a ciggy, damn lucky the place never went up honestly.
The tank should be weighed, the tank has as WC which is the water capacity in pounds that the tank will hold. Take this number times .42 and this will give you the weight of propane that the tank will hold. Add to this the TW weight, the TW is the weight of the tank empty. WC times .42 +TW= total weight of tank when full. The problem with relying on the tube vent is that if the tube is broken off in the tank the tank will be overfilled. This is what led to the OPD valves in the US.
