A 100 lb tank is going to weigh 150 lbs or more full. This is not something most folks can tuck under one arm and carry around.
At our sticks 'n' bricks, we've a gas range as well as a 20x30 workshop building that I heat with propane. I use several 40 lb tanks particularly for these two uses because I can carry the flippin' things up and down the hill and load into/out of our SUVs for refilling. How long they last obviously depends on how much heat they have to put out. For the gas range, one of them will last months. At the height of the heating season, the furnace in the shop goes through one in about two weeks. I'd get hundred pounders if I could carry the **** things. But I can't.
