How to Connect Two 20 Lb Propane Tanks Together
Question:
Im looking for some kind of connection for two 20lb propane tanks that can switch between the two tanks and something that has a tank capacity gauge

Expert Reply:
In order to connect two 20 lb propane tanks to one another you are going to need a regulator with an auto changeover feature like the Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator part # CAM59005. This regulator will pull from one tank until that tank is empty then it will automatically draw from the second tank.
You can then use the Camco Propane Cylinder Gas Gauge and Leak Detector part # CAM59023 to tell how much gas is left in the tank and the Camco Propane Supply Hose part # CAM59053 to connect it to the regulator. You will need one gauge and one hose for each tank.
I have attached a review video on each of the above parts for you as well.
