Air hose quick connect for gas?
I put in a Camco propane quick connect kit for my BBQ on the exterior of my trailer. On the BBQ side of the hose is there a problem with using air hose quick connect fittings?

OK, OK! Off to Wally World I go. Hate to have a 1/2 psi fireball at the BBQ!
Wonder how long gas leaking at 1/2 psi would take to leak enough to explode, and blow the camper to bits?
I think that may be a bit "dramatic" to say the least.
More likely a fire hazard than explosion.
Generally to get an explosion you would have to have some containment to get that.
With a leak more like a big hot fireball.
The danger with LP gas is it is heavier than air, it HUGs the ground and can do so for a pretty good distance if no air movement (quiet still day).
In a nutshell, your big ball of flame could go UNDER the RV and even engulf the RV.. If one was inside they would be trapped with now where to go.
That is why I really recommend using the proper gas rated QDs..
The right tool for the job.
