enrays - part of the problem may be what you described. Part of it may be the combination of altitude and temperature. When the ambient temp gets too low, propane does not want to vaporize.
First I'm going to address this point.. PROPANE the vapor temp (At 1 atmosphere of pressure) is roughly minus 40 degrees, your choice of F or C on that one (-40 is crossover point)
Butane, however.... Closer to the freezing point of water (0C 32F)
Are you sure your luggable tank is propane and not cheaper Butane sold as Propane to maxamize profit for a fraudlant dealer?
Second: I have the Extend a Stay, one of the very first things I added to this motor home. Never had the kind of problelms cited. But then my Luggable was filled in Michigan, where Propane is Propane cause the freezing point of water is often... Much warmer than the air outside the house.
