Coleman grill modifications

Just purchased a Coachmen Apex 215RBK with an outside kitchen. It comes with a Coleman 9924 series grill that works on the disposable 1 pound propane bottles. Would LOVE to be able to fuel it from the dual 20 pound tanks of the RV. My dealer told me it would be a very expensive modification since the grill is designed to work on high pressure propane, and the RV propane system is of low pressure. Anyone know of an affordable way to solve this problem?
Any help is greatly appreciated. My old RVQ grill from my previous Surveyor trailer tied in directly to the RV tanks.
  • This is what I bought from Amazon; works great:

    5-FT (1.52-M) HIGH-PRESSURE PROPANE HOSE & ADAPTER; Model No.2000014877; Use your Coleman® stoves and lanterns almost 20 times longer without refueling with help from the Coleman® 5 Ft. High-Pressure Propane Hose and Adapter. This accessory is all you need to hook a 20-lb. tank to your camp stove or lantern for high-pressure fuel. $24.99 plus shipping from Coleman. $19.97 at Walmart.com. Amazon $18.16.
  • What a bunch of BS. Why don't the just say they do not know.
    I run all my small Grills on a large tank. You just need a hose assembly.
    They are available at Walmart I think.

    Or here is one such unit. Weber 6501 Adapter Hose for Weber Q-Series and Gas Go-Anywhere Grills, 6-Feet on Amazon.



    Barney types faster than me.
  • You can tie into the propane lines before they enter the regulator. There are kits available to accomplish just that. Extend a stay kit.
    "Extend-A-Stay kits let you safely hook up to outside propane cylinders. Allows propane gas into your system from an outside cylinder or gas out of system for high pressure appliances like grills and camp stoves. Kits include brass tee fitting and 5 feet flexible pigtail for hooking up outside propane cylinder."
    If you need a longer hose, then they are available also.
