I was reviewing our current road-baking options which include this backpacking oven: Ultralight Outback Oven Review | Trail Recipes ... our Dutch Oven and this handy highly-packable Swedish campfire reflector oven: Reflector Oven Handmade in Sweden which has made some tasty cinnamon buns by...

If it makes you feel any better... the entire east is getting walloped right now. And we will finally get some sort of winter with similar temps to you are expecting. Which is what we should have had a month and half ago. Maybe with these changing weather patterns, all our efforts to the heat...

No reason why it shouldn't. But I assume you mean "CI hose... connected to the MH 1" port" which, I believe, is what Cary is now intending to do. Two options for using the side port of the trailer: 1) replace the missing pin in the CI hose, or 2) modify the MH hose with a QC like I've done...

This is the connection for my Coleman propane lantern: and the MH connection: A quick glance (previously) and I assumed them to be one and the same.

As a recap, these are my successful gas accessory versions: I replaced the CI regulator with an adjustable one, that goes up tp 30 PSI. I have it set at 20. These are my two (working) hose combinations for the side port: They have been modified to adapt to the side port with the Quick...

Single side:

Dual side:

Hmmm... pics not attaching but there is a pin 0.67" long with a mini compression pin that looks like it needs to be depressed in order for gas to pass. Without the opposing "pin" in the hose section to compress it, nothing will get by, I imagine. Will keep trying to attach.

All 3 inputs (the 2 screw-ons and the 1 quick-connect) fuel the entire heater; however, just one fuel source is required for both heating pads. Only the left side pad ignites on “low”.

I think that Sweeney's experience further corroborates the necessity of using a 1-lb hose connection with the pin still intact, at least for these Mr Heater heaters. Other propane-fueled devices may not be as demanding of the presence of this little piece of engineering. Probably best to carry...

Shiny one is just like the one on the right. Identical. The left side is the CI-supplied hose (with the pin removed) that I couldn't get to work on any MH Heater under any circumstances: I highly suspect that if you remove the pin from the inside of any 1-lb connection, the heater will cease...

"The Case of The Missing Pin" Bob had the answer. I wasn't able to test his theory until I got this delivered today: I spun off the tank connection and spun on the QC for the side port: This particular hose has a brass 3-way connection that allowed the QC conversion. Most hoses without...

For picnic tables, fire pits, that tree that escaped all of your pre-setup site reconnaissance and which your partner feels that you are obviously aware of so (s)he doesn't alert you... Yes... and certainly not for driving away from a highway-speed rear end collision. The tube is 0.10" wall...

Kevin: That's been my understanding as well. However... I now see that my two MH hoses are made using two different hose suppliers: Deltec (ULH201) 1/4" and Flex Tech. Both are rated for 350 psi; the Deltec appears (from a web search) to be made in China while the Flex Tech hose sports a Made...

Curiouser and curiouser... Indeed the pin is gone on the CI hose (left side) but present on the Mr Heater version: Unfortunately, my MH hose is crimped at the other end (with a tank connection) and I have no way of spinning on a male QC to connnect to the side port to see if the presence of...

Mine is 4” dia and despite the appearances i have never come close to banging my shins on it. For it to work effectively as a protective bumper it needs to be somewhat proud of the rear-most part of the trailer. I think i have the height and extension dialled in fairly well. No “test...

I’m sure you could. If you went up to a 5” tube, you’d have another 5 gallons. And a bumper. I love double-duty things. Mine certainly wasn’t meant to be watertight and is only for long skinny stuff like tarp poles and fishing rods. Figuring out how to fill it and connecting to the CI tank...

Sweeney: Are you referring to this: Custom Stainless Bumper (with Storage). ?

That likely won't change anything, as you say. Whenever I've had a "flame out" of the pilot, it was only lit for a few seconds and pretty feeble at that. Just some latent gas in the lines. There was certainly nothing pushing it through.

Mine is 20. Actually a few lbs higher at the port than at the tank. This would indeed seem counterintuitive, but a check valve with a wide swing in pressure points, as you suggest, (or a malfunctioning valve or no valve at all) would be one explanation as to why we have such a wide variation...
