Fuel Keg 1lb Refill Kit

We use a LOT of propane. This saves a ton of money over those stupid green cans. Easy to use. Works so good. Even my wife can refill them.

Works as advertised, you need to get the mr heater fuel keg to use this. But the fuel keg is really nicely built. You don't need any tools to use this. Everything has hand knobs, even the bleeder valve on the fuel keg. Recommended buy, good design, nice and safe. And easy.

Works great and easy to use. Cheaper to refill than constantly buying the disposable ones.

I didn't know 1lb cylinders made to be refilled were something that existed until recently. I grabbed a handful plus this to get started using them. It's a nice kit, and does what it says. If you use 1lb cylinders a decent bit this is worth every dollar. It won't take many refills to pay for itself. I am taking a star because of how shockingly fragile this thing is. While using it, the 20lb bottle started to tip. I caught it before it tripped very far, definitely not completely over, but it was towards this device. It broke off once the tiniest bit of weight and stress hit it. Had I fully dropped/tipped over the bottle I would have shrugged this off a bit more. And I mean, I did still allow it to tip. But it shouldn't be that darn fragile in my opinion. Treat it with care and kid gloves though and it does its job well. If I break another with a bump or sneeze aimed its way I'm dropping more stars and trying a different brand.

This works with the Keg canisters. They have a bleeder built in so you can expel the air and get every can filled to the max. It is so much safer than trying to bleed via the safety relief valve, which can get damaged and create a slow leak. The Kegs cost a bit more but are they are legal to transport, are well built (thicker that others), very easy to fill. I would highly recommend this setup for anyone that is refilling the store-bought disposable canisters. Safer by far and a full tank every time.

Works well, I guess, but I didn't notice much of the visible haze sputtering out of the spit valve as shown on the videos, and I let it run for a long time. But anyway, the tank got filled and powered the heater well. There is another thing that threw me that I'd like to pass on to others who learned only by the videos having the old spit valves, and that is the new kegs have spring-loaded spit valves that requires you to twist the ring and constantly hold it open while filling (important to have a glove on while doing it). At first I turned mine to the left like in the videos, then turned the gas on, waiting for the hissing, and nothing happened. Something told me to twist it harder, then it hissed and stopped as soon as I let go of the ring. Grok said the new spring-loaded design was an added safety feature.

The refill kit is awesome. It’s very convenient filling the 1lb bottles at home. The venting of the bottles is the only down part but it’s necessary to get a good fill. Basically blowing propane out in the open air to do so. I like it but some idiot will get burned eventually.

Works exactly as advertised. It was cold outside when I used it the first time, so the time to fill was around 2 minutes. But seeing as how I can fill my 20lb tank for $19, and fill my 1lb 20 times, I’d say it is well worth the money!
