So would this work with a 15 lb propane tank ?
@@robnavarro8195 yes it'll work with a 15lb 👍
@@JonnyDIY
The newer stiff brass holders do not have a turn on/off value. Where can I get one or is it necessary when using a adapter with a 5 gallon tank
Leave it burning, then turn off the large tank valve,. When the flame goes out fully, then close the stove valve . This eliminates gas left in the lines.
Thank you!
Thanks very much - good tip 👍
Yup....this. Been doing this for decades.
Great tip thanks
My adapter threads into the inner portion of the tank valve threads and the valve is closed on the tank but when I unscrew it it leaks gas and behaves as if the valve is unscrewed (open) please help
Ohhh was this ever helpful. My late husband did all these types of things and I’m having to learn while maintaining a healthy or neurotic, depending on who you ask, attitude about safety. I remember the first time I used propane in my Van Conversion. I was spraying the hose on my stove every 5 minutes..and worse. But I would rather b safe than sorry. I have the 20 lb and the 5 lb and I couldn’t find anything until your video about this topic and how to convert. My concern was if the bigger tank would have to much pressure. So happy to hear I can easily convert while staying safe. Thanks again for very useful video.
You're welcome, glad to be able to help you out 👍 Yes the stove has built in regulator so no need to worry
My Grandfather had a very isolated cabin in Idaho. He cooked on a propane stove set up, just like this for many, many years!
Even had an oven to bake pies, cakes, bread in, etc.
If it's set up right, and you take reasonable precautions, it's perfectly SAFE.
Awesome, sounds like a cool place and good food. Now I want a pie 🥧😁👍

Near the end of cooking, our local-owned family-operated propane shop says to shut 'OFF' the valve on the twenty-pound bottle, allowing the stove to sputter-out while using the propane in the hose.
.
Apparently, the odorant in propane can soften the hose lining, contributing to premature failure.
Ahh that's what it is! Thanks, I usually try and do that. I do it like that with the BBQ 👍
Thank you very much 😊
You're welcome, happy I could help! 👍
That 1lb tank can be refilled, Thanks for sharing
You're welcome, happy to help. Yes you're right they can be refilled, but the tanks and valves aren't rated for multiple usages. Just not built sturdy/quality enough to reuse 👍
You can buy 1lb tanks that are meant to refill, but they cost much more than a typical tank.
The small cans are refillable. Coleman just doesn't want you to know that. A quick adapter from amazon will refill em
You're right, but the valves and tanks aren't built for reuse. There's a couple companies that sell sturdier reusable 1lb tanks, but they're not cheap
That would be illegal, and I’m guessing for a reason. At least in Canada.
Yup I fill mine all the time .....👍🏻
It worked!

Yes exactly! And no need to worry about running out of gas 👍
Hi dude...thanx for an informative video...I bought a new coleman hose and the pipe gets fitted with the coleman stove external adapter..but the gas is not passing ahead to the hose - adaptor attachment
Make sure valve on attachment hose to stove open as well as the tank and knob on actual stove. Make sure all connections fully seated. If all open and fully seated and still nothing I would say its the adapter hose not engaging the connection. Ive heard some hoses not working with certain stoves
Same problem here: and the new rigid adapter doesn’t have a “on/off” as your flexible one
@@maevacmoi1178
With a Coleman propane two-burner camp-stove, the regulator is the 'knob'-looking device on the steel line.
.
It has no on/off switch.
Turn 'ON' the flow by opening the valve on the five-gallon twenty-pounder propane bottle.
I need a "GreatLand" 3 burner camp stove connecting regulator hose, any ideas?
If can't find a specific one for that another similar brand should work. But if you have a local propane store or RV supply. They can make you one that will work for not much money 👍
Coleman NXT 200 Propane Camp Grill Red . It takes little green bottles On this type do you think it still needs an adapter ? The bottle goes in the front upright and has no regulator just a metal screw in . What are your thoughts ? Thank you for sharing
If it takes the small 1 lb bottles it will need to have an adapter to take a big tank 👍
Cool stuff! Question for you if you know. I got a stove just like this from the father in law who scraps metal/hoards junk. It has the flexible line, but is missing the little wire stand for the bottle. Do you know if it's necessary or if the stiff line that the new ones use would work on it?
You could easily make a lil stand out of a stiff coat hanger to keep the tank upright. I believe they just dont want you to use the propane on it's side. And yes I think the newer stiff valve line will work, although they're not made as well
The stove I have has hard, metal adapter to the propane can. It does not have a valve there, saying "preset non-adjustable". I guess it should work as well without a regulator?
@@SoybeanYoung it should work 🤞 those have built in regulators
What about a filter? I was reading that bulk propane isn't as refined/filtered as the 1lb and some hoses have oils from manufacturing that can clog up the buddy heaters.
Yes you can add an in line propane filter. I would suggest if you had a Buddy heater to do that. But I haven't had any issues with this set up yet. Will update if any problems arise
@@JonnyDIY Thanks man. Apparently it's only an issue with the heaters.
@@rodneylittle3530 Get the Mr buddy hose that doesnt require a fuel filter. a little bit more but you also add 5 more ft of hose. PART# F273704

Thank you, will try that next time I use it 👍
U don't need a regulator value to control the pressure? I don't know much about propane. When I hooked mine up and lit the burner it sounded like a blow torch.
It depends on the appliance you're hooking it up to. That smaller hose I first attached to stove regulates the pressure so no added regulator is needed on this stove. Even if you dial down knob on stove it doesn't go down? Itll be somewhat loud on high, mine is that's normal
Thanks. I have been looking for a way to do this. Do you know which model number your Coleman stove is?
Think it's an old 5410. Not sure what year probably 70s-early 80s
@johnk,
This system works on all propane appliances, including our Wave 3 catalytic heater.
Hi! Is it possible to have the part number of the pressure regulator that is on your stove?Thank you!
amzn.to/3MJQZt2 this one should work 👍
Is there a conversion to use a 20# propane tank with a white camp fuel Coleman stove?
Yes here's the video you need. You'll attach the hose like I did in my video to this converter shown in video below 👍
ruclips.net/video/BDuvvegyFik/видео.htmlsi=mItEMb-ar_68_UgX
I have this exact model
Awesome, glad to help 👍
In modern ovens, there is an aluminum tube connecting to a small Coleman can, not the same as yours. There is no release valve, what should I do?
Same, but you connect adapter hose to that stiff line that comes out 👍
Great job. I looked up Freon r 134a and it says it’s for cars only. Is there a different freon. My compressor says r 134a… Tks you
Its the same stuff as far as I know 👍
I have a bit of an unrelated question, but I can’t find a video that addresses flame color. I saw when you turned your stove on that there was a decent amount of yellow in the flame… I’ve read the flame should be pure blue with no yellow/orange/red. Is this true, or is some yellow okay?
Some yellow ok, but once it warms up and you turn it up on high the flame should be blue purple 👍
Great vid what is the size nut that connects to bottle I am looking if doing it but don’t know if it will fit a UK gas bottle 😎👍👍
Thanks glad to help. Sorry not sure about nut size. May want to check if US and UK propane bottles use the same valves
Would probably have good luck if you swing by a propane supplier or RV/trailer parts store

@al,

I am looking to run a butane stove from a large propane bottle. I was under the impression that propane is a higher pressure gas than butane, and therefore would need some means of regulating the pressure. Am i wrong?
You're right you will need to use a Butane to Propane adapter fitting
Like this one
amzn.to/3rycqDM
So I know some of those adapters have the regulator and some don't. Is it better to have the hose with the regulator? Thanks for the video!
If you're hooking to a stove or heater like mine I showed they already have a regulator so it's not necessary. Only when hooking to appliances that dont have a regulator it's needed. Having 2 would end up just restricting gas flow 👍
@@JonnyDIY Okay great thanks for the quick response! I'm just going to hook it to a Coleman heater that usually takes those small green cans. So in that case you think I should be okay with just the hose? Thanks again!
@@ReWildTucson yes just the hose will be fine. Some have mentioned they recommend adding a filter in line on the hose to the heater. They mentioned sometimes the hose degrades and pieces come off inside and can clog things. Just something to know about 👍
@@JonnyDIY Great thanks so much!!
@@ReWildTucson you're welcome, glad I could help 👍
I did not know that i should connect the larger propane tank to the stiff line. When connected, and i turn the stove on, it seems like it has one setting...really high. If i connect it to the stiff line first will that solve the problem? btw, my propane camp stove stiff line doesn't have an on/off switch.
You should always hook the large tank up to the stiff line that has the control valve on it 👍
@Kare,
On later model camp-stoves, the steel tube screws into the side of the stove.
The 'knob' on the steel line is the pressure regulator.
.
Without a regulator at the stove or at the twenty-pound five-gallon propane bottle, you get the entire pressure of the bottle.
As you might imagine, a full bottle with five gallons has more pressure than a nearly-empty bottle with only a pound remaining.
Thus, the need for a regulator for an even flow.
So using the hose directly doesn’t require a regulator? Can I get a hose with a regulator?
No regulator needed since we're hooking the hose up to the factory hose or piping of the stove that already has a regulator built in to it. So no need or worry 👍
Ok,what about the hose that ties right to the stove,where can I get one of those?
Thanks
Your stove should come with the piece that attaches directly to stove. It'll be the hose with the valve to control the flame. You should have unless lost. Then you attach this hose to it. If you lost or missing yours can get replacement on Amazon
I have that same stove but no hose cause it was given to me… do you know how I can modify my stove to use the new propane adapter?
This should be the piece you need and then I left another link in description to the hose you connect to this piece
amzn.to/3FEU5uv
The newer stiff brass holders do not have a turn on/off value. Where can I get one or is it necessary when using a adapter with a 5 gallon tank
How do you turn them off after use with those? 🤔
@@JonnyDIY - I turn off the propane tank and then the stove but I saw that your older flexible hose had a off/on on it.
@@thehebrewyisraeliteinstitu1868 huh that's strange they removed it from the connector. Do they expect you to disconnect a small tank that doesnt have a valve every time? I would think turning all the way to lowest setting on dial would be closed would be my guess
@@thehebrewyisraeliteinstitu1868 PS- I have seen replacement hoses with valves on amazon
Do they make a hose that goes directly from the valve on the tank to the small inlet on the stove itself, bypassing the flexible or rigid 1lb adapter? I'm looking for something that goes straight and has the proper regulation built in. I don't like propane gas in the first place, bust especially having an extra junction where things might become loose over time. It seems superfluous to me to have that extra piece in there. Any ideas? Thanks.
Not that I know of but a propane supplier or rv parts supplier could probably make one up out of parts on hand. They do stuff like that all the time for customers 👍
@@JonnyDIY Good idea. I'll have to check in on that with my local supplier... he seemed willing to help me a couple years ago, but needed to know what I was using...
Yes you can connect directly from 15-20 lb tank valve to coleman table top stove without using the shorter regulator valve hose .I bought mine on Amazon (Regulator hose STRANBOIL #B089KGGGDH and Fitting Connector GASSAF #B07NSJB7W2)

You can refill the 1 pound
Well yes and no. You can refill them, but they're not rated or legal to refill. I think there's only 1 company that's sells refillable 1 lb tanks, Flame King.
I need help. I have two camp stoves they both work. My 5 gallon propane tank is half full maybe a little less. Bought a new line to run from the tank to the stove no leaks neither one of the stoves stays lit. What could be the problem?
Theres not an extra regulator on the hose going to tank? Sometimes that will restrict it. If not I'd say try another hose. Some I've heard don't screw on deep enough to engage to let the gas in through the regulator hose on the stove.
@chari,
Take all the components to your local-owned family-operated propane shop.
Do you know of any refillable tanks for car camping?
You can refill a 1lb tank with a 20lb there is a small connector that does it.
Do you know if there is a quick connect adapter to connect directly to RV?
Yes I'm certain there is 👍
No, not for Coleman type stoves. The RV quick connect lines run on low pressure through a 2-stage regulator. The Coleman stove runs on a higher pressure.
There are some stoves designed to use the RV quick connect (Camp Chef and Blackstone Griddle, for example).
Are the hoses with the regulator not needed
No additional regulator needed when hooking to camp stove or heater. They have them built in 👍
Is this alow pressure or high pressure hose?
Was designed for propane so probably not too high as the pressure is regulated
Hey I’m trying to put a 20 pound tank on an ozark single burner and I tried putting a splitter on a hose with a regulator and almost no propane comes out but with a direct line from the tank to the burner it works fine do I need the regulator for the burner
You don't need the regulator. Camp stoves haver their own regulators built in or like on mine it's the hose with valve control👍
@@JonnyDIY ok yea I’m putting it on my 17 blackstone and that has a regulator but I’m just gonna get a splitter off the tank so the burner and blackstone are separate and the burner has its own knob to control the propane just makes me worry
@@Ultra77737 Should be fine, can always double check with manufacturer, but as long as you're putting the propane in line the same as you'd be doing with a 1lb tank it should be fine as propane pressure doesn't really increase with larger tank sizes
@@JonnyDIY thank you
@@Ultra77737 you're welcome, glad to help 👍
Do you know where to get a propane hose burnzomatic st840 campstove
I would call manufacturer. If they don't have it they can at least give you part number to look up replacements 👍 or ebay or sometimes forums have lots good information on old camp stoves
I refill those little one all the time. Amazon adapter for that...
Be careful, tank metal and valves not rated for repeated use.
I need that hose conector, where can I find it ?
I put a link to one in description, can order one off Amazon or can sometimes find locally places like Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes or Ace Hardware 👍
Checks for leaks with soapy water. Proceeds to start the grill against a 20lb propane tank. 🤣🤣

lol thanks yeah I should have mentioned not to use propane next to stove, I just had it up for ease of making the video. I forget things sometimes in the midst of filming 🤦♂
@@JonnyDIY
Zero leaks, zero issues with proximity.
This assumes you have a regulator in the stove. Mine is too old for this setup. Is there a setup with a regulator?
@@AffordBindEquipment yes you can put a regulator on hose if that's what your stove requires. Im wondering where the regulator is though if the stove was designed for 1lb tanks?
@@JonnyDIY I assumed the 1lb tank has less pressure. Anyway, I had terrible results today with a 20lb tank direct with no regulator and will try the small tanks tomorrow.
@@AffordBindEquipment the pressure will be same from 1lb to 20lb. Hopefully the 1lb tank will work well. Sometimes the 20lb hose adapters don't always work on every stove. They don't always engage when screwed on and not enough gas comes out
Can I hook large 100 lbs tank and use safely?
Yes, any tank size will work 👍 just be sure to check for leaks as I did. And also shut off valve on tank after use as I did 👍
When I hook mine up to the 20lb I get minimal gas flow and low flame….much less than with a 1lb. Tried on two different tanks. Any hints?
Sometimes the conversion hose when you screw it on doesn't engage the valve all the way. I've heard others complain in the hose reviews of this problem before. May need to try a different hose setup
I had this problem with a Coleman two burner stove, trying to connect to a 15 lb tank - no gas flow to the burners. A pipe wrench and a bit of gorilla on the fitting where the bottle usually attaches let the pin depress the valve enough to open, allowing gas to flow, burner to light, coffee water to boil, etc! The same hose worked fine with hand tightening to a Little Buddy heater, so it must be how the different connections are machined...
@mikey,
Does your five-gallon twenty-pounder propane bottle have a regulator?
Does your camp-stove have a regulator?
The two would indeed create significant restrictions.
Where did you get the hose?
Ordered online, I put a link in description to one 👍
Hey Jonny..How About A Mr heater/cooker 10/12/15,000 BTU ?...IV Had 3 or so Go Out On me with plain Hose Hooked up to 20pound tank.....
Try running an in line filter between the hose and the heater/cooker. Have heard a lot of these hoses deteriorate over time and clog things up 👍
Ok cool ... Yea was thinking that...someone might have said that it kinda works as a regulator too in a way possibly...🤔
So it's the hose that is the contaminater?🤔 Ok
@@JeremyMN Yes I believe its the hose degrading over time. No it shouldn't act as a regulator. But I have heard a lot of people add those filters to keep them running longer.
👍

The 1 lb bottles are INDEED refillable. There are fittings to do it.
you are not meant to refill those, can be very dangerous
@@ex_yz Not really. Just turn the large tank upside down, connect the hoses to the tank and bottle, snugly, and open to fill the little bottle, then close everything and you're done. Just don't smoke near it and do it outside ...everybody does this.
“Everybody does this” is neither true nor a sign of intelligence. In fact suggesting anyone to just refill these little green bottles with larger ones is not only dangerous but also unnecessary. For starters those little cylinders were not designed to withstand the stress of being refilled over and over again and while it might work a time or two it also might leak or even rupture, or worse. The whole point of the video is to forgo these little green things with an adapter piece, which is both smarter and if you care far less wasteful.
@@adjectivenouns3484 What do you mean by "not designed to withstand pressures..."? I've seen those small propane bottles bounce on concrete, fall down rocky hillsides, get kicked out of campfires where they accidentally fell and so on and never ever heard of one giving a problem. What world do you live in?
i converted my propane coleman stove to a twenty pound tank and i notice a considerable pressure loss. the one pound tank had more flame than the twenty pound... any ideas why... the tank was full
You didn't put a hose with another regulator in line on? That or sometimes certain hoses just don't work with the connections. Like they don't fully engage and open so maybe not letting it all in. May want to try a different hose. That would be my guess
the only regulator was the one from the stove@@JonnyDIY
@@carmencristantiello5176 ok then most likely the adapter hose isnt fully engaging the connection on your regulated hose coming off stove. Seems to be quite common problem with certain stove/hose combinations after reading some reviews
So it wouldn’t be too much pressure on the stove so it blows?
No it's fine, the stoves have their own built in regulator on the hose that has the gas control knob 👍
@lan,
Yes, it wouldn't.
Hi. I have bought 2 different adapters, 1 from your video, and another one but neither works, what am I missing?
Make sure screwed in all the way. Sometimes it doesn't engage unless screwed all way. And some adapters I have heard don't work with some appliances
@@JonnyDIY We got it! Thanks so much.
@@lisarodriguez5461 Awesome, glad you guys got it. You're welcome, happy I could help 👍
Where do I get the converter from?
Theres a link in the video description to one of the conversion hoses. May also be able to source locally depending.
Do hardware stores carry the adapter or does it have to be ordered online?
Some hardware stores will carry this adapter hose. I think harbor freight and maybe home depot. Ace hardware too 👍
Don’t you need to use a regulator as well?
The stove has built in regulator on the hose or hard pipe you attach to it
Okay, Jonny, I bought the hose but it won't run the stove, but the small bottle will, any ideas?
I have heard certain hoses won't run certain stoves, but which one seems like a crapshoot. I'd return and try another brands hose. I believe it's the fitting on the end not engaging properly where it hooks up to the stove

The one pound tanks are refillable. It is not illegal to refill them, but it is illegal to transport them.

I don't think the cops gives a shit about you transporting 1 pound propane .. and yea refill them it's easy with an adapter .
Strange, I see that you connected with a regulator in-line, but all the comments say you don't need to use a regulator??? I am confused
You need to use the regulator that comes with your camping stove. The hose or stiff line with the knob like I showed. In the comments people were referring to an additional regulator like the circular silver ones used with propane barbeques 👍
Always turn tank off first and let it burn all the gas in the line out.
I want to use my 5 lb. propane tank
It'll be the same process to hook it up to a 5lb tank 👍
Don't you need a regulator for it to be safe?
No it has built in regulator on the hose that comes with stove you attach this one to
I have a 5 pound tank
That will work just the same too 👍
I have a boat motor and it has a tube that connects to a large tank. If I want to connect that tube to a small 1lb tank do you know the adapter I would need?
I think this is the one you need. Check pictures to be sure.
