We have a Jeep Wrangler that we tow and so we place the tank in the Jeep, turn it off, secure it and transport it that way. We only take the auxiliary tank on cold trips although we might find a better way to secure it when we do our Alaska trip.
Hi, Thank you very for answering my questions. Is it dangerous and against law to transport the auxiliary propane tank in one of the baggage storage areas on Jayco Seneca?
By the way, Have you noticed that the heating flex ducks are not insulated in Jayco Seneca? I found this on my last trip. Yesterday I spent the whole day wrapping the flex ducks with insulation materials.
We adjusted the heat ducts and added a vent down into the under storage area. Jeremy also put in insulation to the under area. Once it’s done we will have a new video with the changes. It has really warmed the under storage area.
Would you guys ever consider a trailer for your vehicle? Can do a little bit more storage as well? As a past CDL driver, to many stories of vehicles being towed and only 1/2 the car showing up at the destination! Great vid! Trying to outfit our Seneca with goodies and this is one! Have you ever considered saddle tanks (under the doors) like the other super C’s for extended range?
The problem with a trailer is you need the space to park it as well. We’ve stayed at many parks where the site barely fits our rig (and the Jeep can fit anywhere). A trailer would greatly limit us at state park and national park campgrounds. I don’t think there’s room for saddle tanks on our unit but I could be wrong. The mounted propane tank could be swapped for larger though.
We ordered online from a company that only deals with gas lines. It’s been four years and I can’t remember the site (or I would have linked it for you).
Our fridge is powered by electricity (not propane). It runs on the batteries while we are driving and not hooked up to power. It can run a few days before we either need to plug in or run the generator.
@@anotherdamnyankee3805 It’s just a regular residential fridge. It goes to a sub panel of items that run through the inverter and Off the battery bank. So our lights, the microwave, the fridge, and a few wall plugs can work at all times (as long as the batteries have charge). I think this is pretty common with motorhome. I know nothing about the setup for trailers or fifth wheels.
@@RVHomeschool I have a Winnebago and my A/C, and microwave use way too much power to run off the inverter they need a land line or generator. My fridge runs off a land line, gas, or the 4000w generator. I do have a 12 volt TV, the water pump, and interior lights will work and thats it. Oh, and a couple of fans.
Good grief! At least half the video is babbling about why you need an aux. tank. We already know why we need it! Just get on with how you hooked it up and shorten the video by seven or eight minutes. lol I finally got tired of watching, but at least I see the valve you used so that was handy to know. Thanks a bunch!
Great info! Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching.
The dual round thing your touching is the " regulator"
Sorry I need more info than just pointing things out. How did you get that other “sturgis” piece in place?
Hi, I also own a 2019 Jayco Seneca. Can you please tell me how you transport and store your auxiliary propane tank on your trip?

But where do you store the auxiliary tank?
We put it in the Jeep on travel days.

Where do you get a hose to hook up?

Link to item?
How does your fridge work when driving if you turn off the gas?
Our fridge is powered by electricity (not propane). It runs on the batteries while we are driving and not hooked up to power. It can run a few days before we either need to plug in or run the generator.
@@RVHomeschool That's a fantastic fridge! Where do you get one that runs on 12volts dc?
