Can the shnozzle be used with a partially filled 20 lb propane tank?

Have not tried mine out yet, but have been told filling 1 vessel from another be sure the filler sits higher and upside down as the one being filled is lower, even if the filler is not completely full. Hope this helps.

Yes it can. The 20 lb tank simply needs to be adequately full. The fuller it is the quicker it will fill the 1 lb cylinder. I would recommend trying to use a 20 lb tank at half full or more just to speed things up. It's important to follow the directions regarding temperature or you will have issues no matter how much you have in the tank since you must have the pressure difference to work well.

No mostly filled . You need the pressure from mostly (three quarters to full)

So long as the 20# tank has more pressure than the 1#, the propane with flow. You wont be able to get every last bit of propane out of the 20# tank. One trick I found to help is to put the 1# cylinder in the deep freeze...or if you live in North Dakota like I do, just leave outside when its 20 below... keep the tank you are filling from inside/warm before hand and it helps to refill the tanks quickly and to a higher capacity.

Yes. I have a smaller tank which I use for picnics which is easier to handle instead of the 20lb. tank which I use mainly home. You just have to ensure that both have the same hose connection.

I'm believe not. The manual says to use only standard 20 or 30 pound capacity LP tanks (we also used a 15 lb. tank, too) with type 1 right-hand Acme threads. The hose hook-up that comes with the unit is small and I don't know if it would be the right size to hook up to something that big? I suggest calling their customer care phone number 1-877-338-0999 if you'd like to talk to the company about it. It never hurts to ask, and maybe they customize. Have a nice day.

Yes, we use ours camping and hook it up to a standard 20lb. propane tank....Works great!

It comes equipped with the fitting for a 20 lb. tank. you would need an adapter to use the small 1 lb.cannisters.

This item screws into any 20,30,40 Lb portable Propane tank--I have all (3) & it works fine.PS always check for leaks with (Soap & water) watch for bubbles.Hoses are available to adapt any Gas appliance to this "Tree" Richie.

Yes. I use a 20 lb and 40 lb tank (switch out) and have had no problems. I use heater for supplemental heating. I assume because the smaller tanks will lose pressure faster is why they state only a 100 lb tank. I found you need to make sure you have a proper regulator (low pressure).

Yes, but you need to buy an appliance propane gas hose extension . I bought a 20' hose made by Coleman, I think

You would need an adapter to match the 20 lb. threads. It would work but is the most expensive way to heat. Consider a 10 lb tank.

A fire wouldn't last long with a 1 lb canister. And you'd need a hose to connect to it so the propane isn't right next to the fire! Yikes! We use the 20 lb. tank with a hose connected to the fire pit. It lasts several nights. So handy to have where wood fires are not allowed.

No. It allows you to use a 20# tank on a device that was designed for a 1# can. The 1# can has a fine thread and the 20# tank has an extremely coarse thread.

If you mean a 20 pound 'propane' cylinder, the answer is no. The jets in this heater, as delivered, are sized for 'natural' gas only. I'm not sure if it can be converted to propane (meaning replacing the jets).

To answer your question directly, no. The safety valve (the small valve off to the side) is not opened by this. That's one of the weaknesses of refilling your own. Unless you have some way to vent gas, you will only be able to partially fill the 1 lb. tank. But; you'll still be able to re-use and refill them. Just don't plan on being able to get more than about 3/4 lb of propane back in the bottle. This is common to all the refill devices.

Its made for the small BBQ propane tanks. So I don't don't know if you can use it with a bigger one. Sorr .

This trap is designed to operate using a standard 20 pound propane tank. We cannot recommend using butane.

As long as the threads are the same as the ones on a regular 20 lb tank it should be fine.

I'm sure you can but I wouldnot personaly use it for the purpose of having to fill it so often.I have always used propane never tried anything else and I never had any issues.
