The only ways to transfer more propane to your onboard tank is to take your RV to a refill station or have a propane truck come to your location to fill it. Chances are that a truck will not come to you for such a small purchase.
Another alternative is to use an outdoor 20 pound propane tank. You will need the MB Sturgis # 103538-MBS extended stay T-fitting. Where your gas line from the RV connects to the tank you can install this T-fitting. The included hose will run from your T-fitting to a refillable/exchangeable 20 pound propane tank.
I have attached a video showing this product.
