Why not use the auto changeover valve as is is designed? I have one on my TT and really like not getting up in the middle of the night to switch tanks.

Mine have always had a switch you have to rotate to get the fresh tank going...just takes a second outside at the tanks.
I prefer this over any system that does it automatically in the middle of the night...because I'm not going to go check the propane every day (just not going to happen), so I can pretty much guarantee I would forget and then one night both tanks would be empty.
