  • Very bad idea, been in propane business for 32 years. your asking for trouble. You have overfilled that tank.

  • @MinDigitalMedia how so ?

  • How dangerous is it to refill the 1lb. tanks without using a refill gauge? Propane filling stations won't even fill a tank with an old valve due to the fact they are missing the necessary pop off valve to prevent exploding tanks. I'm not bad mouthing you at all, just curious about the safety. I know companies say non refillable but that's because they want you to spend money buying a new one each time. Thanks and I look forward to your response.

  • @brianb942 im not sure i have never herd of any thing happening as long as you dont fill one that the valve is leaking

  • I have a question, because i airsoft i use propane as a cheaper alt. for green gas. I was wondering with my empty propane tank(Mini one) can i push down the needle and put alot of silicone oil in it then refill it? Thanks

  • @IamTeHe you mite be able to but there is no telling how much is needed or how much is actualy getting to the gun =)

see all

  • if you live in the united states they sell them at menards.

  • @ils360 There was a fill adapter on the market for years, along with refillable 1lb cylinders that had a relief (outage) valve to let you know when to stop filling the cylinder. Just be very careful not to overfill the cylinder.

  • @brianb942 refill station have a motorized pump that refills the bottle. If it wasn't shut off it would overfill the tank. In this video he uses the pressure of the larger tank to re-pressurize and fill the smaller tank. No danger, plus the little thing off to the side of the top of the smaller bottle is a safety.

  • @ils360 Thanks
