- MEXICOWANDERERExplorerThe standard 11" water column pressure regulator. Biy it new
- jerryjay11Explorer.........
- rrupertExplorerWhat type of stove is it, a high pressure or a low pressure? High pressure takes the 1 pound screw on tanks or a direct connection via hose direct to a bulk tank. The low pressure is made to attach to the trailer's low pressure connection. Give us some info so we can help you.
- DavinDExplorerSorry, it's a high pressure stove. Most of what I'm reading says that it's better to just tee off one of the tanks as the quick disconnect under the trailer will be too low pressure.

That quick disconnect low pressure feed won't run your high pressure Coleman camp stove at all ... either feed it with a canister or stand alone propane tank or T off one of the trailer tanks before the regulator. If you choose the latter you'll then have a potential tripping hazard in the hose, ergo the reason I just run my own Coleman stove off a canister. - AlmotExplorer IIIOutdoor stove can be either high pressure or low.
If you're certain it is high - then what's Soundguy said. Standalone 1lb tank or again standalone 20lb tank.
1lb tank lasts really long time. You can refill it yourself off 20lb tank if you want. - DavinDExplorer

I just hate to have those throw-away 1lb tanks. I know they can be refilled, but it's a pain. I do have the distribution pole that hooks to a big tank that I can put my lantern on, but was looking to use the tanks already in the trailer. I'm just going to Tee off one of the tanks and use a hose. My stove won't be far from the tank, so the tripping hazard is minimal.
I've had my Coleman stove for almost 30 years (my lantern too), I would hate to switch it out for a low pressure one. - LwiddisExplorer IIAny bacon left for me, Soundguy?

With our previous Spree I plumbed it so I could run not just my 2-burner Coleman stove but also my Weber Q and while it worked fine I tired of setting it up every time and tripping over the hose. I then realized it was the grill that consumes the vast majority of gas, the stove very little, the reason being that a grill needs to not just cook but also preheat but then also burn off residue after grilling. I ditched the hose and began to run the grill with a 5 lb tank and the stove with a 16.4 oz canister. Last year the 5 pounder needed to be recertified so instead turned it in and now run both the grill and stove with canisters. Each spring big box stores around here offer 4-packs of canisters on sale so I buy a couple and find that more than enough for the entire season. This containment box built from scrap plywood ensures the canisters don't roll around in the back of the truck when I'm towing. I can even take along a couple of torch fuel canisters. K.I.S.S. :B - MEXICOWANDERERExplorerI've owned both types of Coleman stove and much prefer the high pressure. Much more heat potential at the burner.
Remember to specifically specify high pressure hose.
I prefer for safety reasons using a 10 lb regulator (they are color coded RED) on the supply line.
