The Flame King Steel 5 LB Propane Tank is pre-purged vacuum ready for filling of propane avoiding you the cost and headache of purging your new tank. It is built from high grade welded steel and powder coated for rust prevention. For your safety, your tank comes with an OPD valve to prevent overfilling as well as x-ray and hydrostatic tested. You can be sure to transport safely both in the US and CA as they are DOT and Transport Canada certified.
After 6 green 1lb bottles it was time to make an economical, reusable change. This 5lb model is a perfect fit for the Weber Q2200. It fits comfortably under the grill stand. The 5lb weight is easy haul around and refill. The refill cost of $5.28 is cheaper than a single green bottle. It should last as long as 5 green canisters. If that turns out to be true then it will pay for itself after the 2nd refill.It is such a good deal and size that I’m strongly considering it for our short term rental in Myrtle Beach that has a Weber Q1200. Makes sense for our renters, and ourselves as well, while not posing a big risk to our unit.Note that my objective was an economical alternative for an almost exclusively condo usage. For a truly portable usage the 5lb canister isn’t as portable as a single 1lb canister, but it beats a 11lb or 20lb tank hands down and certainly carrying 2 or more of the green tanks.
Perfect size my portable grill. Much better than the small disposable bottles. Only $3 to fill.
I have been wanting one of these smaller tanks for when I am camping out of my van. The larger tanks are just too big for a small space. This will be much more economical than purchasing those little green bottles. I would recommend this item.
Perfect size for my custom overland pickup camper
The tank is new, manufactured in January (bought in April). It came with a minor scrape (no big deal) and a dent in the bottom ring.
But there is a horrible spur on the weld on the bottom ring sticking out almost half an inch. sigh....
I am using this on river trips, so I really do not care that much, but it is really disappointing to see such poor (cosmetic) quality control. If I were less handy with a grinder and touch up paint, I would be very mad right now. I cannot give it more than 3 stars.
