My trailer developed a propane leak recently. It was enough to empty a tank in two days. The first time a tank emptied quickly, I thought that the exchange hadn't given me a full one. The second time ...
I use a propane detector wand, then glycerin to find the bubbly spot (glycerin is better than soapy water since it won't corrode if it isn't wiped off immediately.)
When I do that, I tell people I'm doing the Zippo test to check for propane leaks... they then give my rig a wide berth, so I can work without interruptions.
