I saw Menards has the Coleman 1 lb propane cylinders on sale. 4 for $10 through July 6. I believe that is a decent buy.

What am I doing wrong, I can only get, if I'm lucky, a bottle a third full. Leave the one pounders outside nearly 20 degrees and the full 20 pounder at room temp in the garage at 58 degrees, hook up turn over, open valve and leave well over 10 minutes, close valve, turn  upright and disconnect.

You need to burp the pressure relief valve a little bit with it still attached to the 20 pound tank.  this gets rid of the air/dead space in the 1 pound tank.  Search you tube for " Refilling 1lb Propane Cylinders using the pressure relief valve method (non-chill)

Thanks, instructions that came with the adapter say nothing about having to bleed the bottles while filling.

Just went to Menards in Eden Prairie. Bought a bunch of 1 lb'ers for $3.12 and then they took 15%

off because they have that 15% off all you can put in a bag deal.

Sorry, not a 5lb tank. An 11lb

 

And today I paid $1.89 to top it off. My hunting budy  has run on it for 28hrs in the original fill. 

 

So glad I went away from the 1lb tanks. Just a waste of time and money.

I used to lug around a 10 pounder. Then ran a hose to the heater.  1 pounders cost more but easy peasy so I pay the extra.

well,  I bought the mr heater 1 pound tank adapter for 15 bucks on amazon smile.  really works great!   took a little bit to figure it out.  gotta let all the air out of the small can first. 2 minutes puts 1 pound back into the can. :)

I've just paid the price(about $3.00-$3.50) for them this year because of convinence. This weekend I only used up 4 in 3.5 days of fishing, heater was on low almost the whole time.

cold can, cold tank, 20 pounder upside down.

I've found it works best with a warm supply tank upside-down and cold 1lb tank. If the 1lb tank had just a little fuel left in it, it seams to work better yet.

Does it really matter when you have to buy the questionable 20 to 1 fill tip only on line? :whistle::lol:

If I remember correctly it is illegal to transport refilled 1 pounders.

Check this out guys... a little spendy in the beginning but seems worth it to me. Gonna buy this and 3 or 4 extra tanks and I should be gtg.

 

Flame King 1 lb. Refillable Propane Cylinder with Refill Kit

Also look on youtube and there is a video showing exactly how it works. Seems safer to me than the the adapter I bought for the green tanks and still havent bothered to use.

      What a difference a day makes.  Fishing was very slow today.  Biggest I caught was only 13 inches.  Marked a lot of fish but couldn't get very many to bite.   The wind was very strong today and did cause a little bit of drifting, but travel is still good on the latke.  Just avoid the snow banks and drifts.  Saw one house get pulled off the lake, and didn't see any new houses come out before I left the lake at 4pm.  Lots of snowmobiles and trailers in Tower.  At least the city and lake will be busy with those.   Good luck fishing if you go out the last weekend of the winter season.

      Ice condition didn't change much in the last week as shown in the McKinley Park photo from today.  The holes in my house froze all the way down in the last six days; 40 inches of ice now.  I drilled my two holes 24 inches and cleared the shavings out before reaching water.  Much cleaner way in a permanent house.   Fishing was pretty good today.  Caught two 24" walleyes, including the 5#-7oz fatty pictured.  Also caught a 19 incher.  Best bite was from 11 to noon.  Much better action with chubs than shiners today.  Never tried the pike suckers I had.   Good luck fishing the last weekend this winter.  Going to be very windy Friday, but drifting shouldn't b a problem since there is no loose snow on the lake.  Saturday and Sunday look to be very warm.  Still about 35 houses left out from McKinley Park.

      Too bad she’s after big game when she leaves home.  Your one eyed trouser trout might not lure her in. 😉
