Thanks for the video. I was a little perplexed by the fact that the gauge had no lb meter, but it works! Thanks for the explanation!

Nice video. I picked one up. After less than a year it started leaking. I'm guessing bad O-Ring.

Thank you for the video. Just FYI, if you're like most people and you exchange tanks (the ones in the cages), they only fill them to 75% capacity. Don't ask me why, it's what I was told at Tractor Supply when I went in for a fill-up. However if you own your tank like I do, you can have it filled to 100% and at a cheaper rate per pound. That's a considerable difference. Having your own tank saves money in a short time if you grill a lot and you don't have to fill up as often.

The pressure on a propane tank tells you what the temperature of the liquid propane is, not the level in the tank. So many people get this wrong. If you want to know how much gas you have, weight the tank on your bathroom scale and subtract the tare weight (TW) posted on the top collar of the tank. For a 20# tank, the tare weight will be around 17 or 18 pounds, so a full tank will be 37 or 38 pounds. Check the tare weight on your tank. Older tanks are heavier than the new ones. The pressure of propane starts at zero psi when the temperature of the liquid is below -45F. When the temperature reaches 0F, the pressure will be 28 psi. When the temperature reaches 50F the pressure is 100psi. When the temperature reaches 100F, the pressure is 200psi. I hope this helps someone.

Propane is stored at saturation as liquid and vapor - if ambient temperature were the same - the gauge would not move until the very last drop of liquid propane turned to gas... doesn't make sense to me!
