That is why I changed to the 20 lb. ones. When they close to date I swap them out at homedepot or where ever and never worry about having to buy new ones. I keep a extra full one locked in the bed of the truck for when one runs out and then get the empty filled or exchange it.
I also went to 20's on my travel trailer years back. 20's were much cheaper and easy to swap. I got a shorter threaded rod, and life was near perfect. My gas usage wasn't that high that I needed 30's.

you bring up a good point. The only difference is that you need to refill/swap just a little more often. We only fill our motorhome up once a year. It's a 40. Haven't filled it up this year yet and think it's around 2/3rds full. We don't normally use the heater either. We will normally use an electric heater, put the hot water heater on electric and the fridge is on electric unless we are traveling. We don't do a lot of dry camping.
