Which Propane Adapter/Hose?

I think they're kind of pricey, though (the trees).

The "distribution tree" still presents the same problem, unless you buy TWO hoses, & put the lantern on the top connection.

It's not worth it. Stay with the canisters, you can put each device in the best location to suite your purposes.

The pic is correct but the description is bogus. It does not have a flare on the appliance end nor a model 250 quick disconnect.

Blulk tank hose adapter, ACME QCC-1 to connect to 'tank' and 1x20 disposal thread to connect where the 1lb bottle goes.


A POL is left handed so one turns it counter clockwise to tighten
The ACME (green or black) turns clockwise to tighten.

Hi mitch,

Pricey but safe. Cheap but unreliable (fall down go BOOM). Your choice!

HUH? The tree is pricey?
I don't think I've ever seen a cheap propane tree.

OP HERE. It's the Everest version of the Camp Chef stove.

I just went to Camp Chef's site and they showed this as an available bulk adapter, with the following description. Can I correctly assume the hose on the right will work with this stove (and the other appliances)?

Description
Need more propane than a one pound tank? This five foot Bulk Tank Hose Adapter will attach a bulk propane tank to a portable propane tank fitting. Perfect for attaching your Outdoor Camp Oven, MVP Sport Grill or any disposable bottle appliance to a bulk propane tank.

1/4" Hose 5' Long
Appliance End: 3/8" Female Flare
Inlet: Type 250 male quick connect
Max Pressure: 0.5 PSI



Thanks for your help.

PS: Red31, I have no idea what your post means...I THINK it has something to do with the things you use to screw on to the bulk tank? They turn in opposite directions?

Yes, that would be the best & easiest to use& it will work with the Everest. But, it can only be used for one appliance at a time, so you lose the advantage of the cylinders.

If the devices are designed to use the throw away bottles.. The one on the right.

^^ that hose looks correct. Large ACME thread to the bulk bottle and the other end looks like the top of the bottle and should fit into the appliance nicely.
