Propane Leak: Hose Replacement
OK, don't judge me. Don't make fun of me. Well, go ahead I deserve it. :) Here's the deal. My propane tank leaks sometimes. It seems to be temperature and altitude related. At sea level there ...

Brass fittings on the regulator end are all different because regulators are different.
You don't need to have a changeover regulator. Get a single-tank regulator if it's cheaper - and if it's regulator that failed, not the hose.
Yes, you can open one tank at a time. Don't need a changeover regulator for that. Flip the hose from one tank to another.
Yes, when hooking up one tank at a time, you WILL know when one tank is empty :)... Then you flip the hose to another tank, takes all 2 minutes, and refill the empty one at your earliest convenience.

While playing with the hose we noticed the regulator doesn't fully seal off the other side when the lever is flipped to one side or the other.
No problem, I only open one tank at a time.
I want to know when one of them has run out of gas, not be surprised when both run out and I don't have a back up.
