Refill Propane LPG bottle at home from another cylinder & save money easy

[@ezy2Learn]

Stainless Steel Hose Clamp (Jubilee Clip) actually is much better & safer than factory sealed Ferrule. A ferrule is a round metal sleeve that's permanently swaged, or clamped, on to the end of a hose during the manufacturing process to prevent inexperienced people to adjust it. It's usually made of a zinc alloy. You will find Ferrule on gas hoses in most of western countries because of Gov regulations but most of the world uses Jubilee Clip on gas hoses. Furthermore, as per video (time 8:22) I have checked for gas leaks with the soapy water and there wasn't any leak. Hose I have on the video is made to transfer gas from one cylinder to another, not for permanent use. Thanks for watching and your comments

[@noelwhittle7922]

Well... if you watch the video and read all the comments you will have been exposed to all the considerations on how to do it properly and as safe as possible in your own backyard. What you do with that new knowledge is your responsibility. I learnt a lot actually.

[@ezy2Learn]

Thanks for you comments. The main issue is the gas transfer hose, it isn't available for sale in Australia. Some may see my work very dangerous but if you think about it for while, all what I am trying to do is making a transfer hose that isn't available.

[@lucymooch5821]

My Hubby worked in the steel furnaces of Europe and UK using a high pressure oxygen lances often, S/S jubilee clips used everywhere never failed once he says.

When you're using a gas bottle as a work bench, its surprising you got the chance to upload the video

[@mitchellsmith411]

Nice one Aussie. Sometimes a bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. I have seen Jubilee clips come loose at pressures as low as 6 bar. Propane tanks are ~10bar. Whats happening in the tank is that the propane is a liquid under that pressure. With gas sitting at the top of that. As the gas is used/released the temp drops. Thats why the bottle gets cold like that. Naturally you want to transfer as much liquid as possible to the bottle as transferring the gas is going to take a very long time. Before starting. Make sure the empty bottle is completely empty. Then start the process with the full bottle upside down. This will mean taht only the liquid is being transferred and the process will be very quick. Note. You can buy the crimp type hose clamps at bunnings. They are cheap and you will get a much better hold on the hose.

[@ezy2Learn]

Thanks for your comment :) I never seen crimp clamps at bunnings and I totally agree with you about Jubilee clips if they are made of zinc alloys as I have seen them coming loose without even pressures, but I never had issues with Stainless Steel Hose Clamps but crimp clamps would be an alternative option if they are widely available. Would you please post a link for crimp clamps as I can't find them on bunnings website. cheers

[@johnallright6847]

All you do when you have cut the bit of hose off is apply some heat (not attached to gas bottle) and the rubber becomes soft and clamp pulls off easily with pliers. Heat does not bother the brass at all.

[@mrdilligaf1968]

Ideally , keep the big bottle suspended upside down and above the small cylinder being filled so you get liquid gas rather than vapour. Cheers and good vid

[@alexxgloverr]

I'm amazed no one has mentioned how dangerous this method is. A propane bottle should only be filled to 80% to allow for expansion. If you fill a bottle to the top on a cold day and leave it out in the sun it is probable that the safety valve will blow resulting in a gas escape. If you must fill like this please weigh the empty bottle first, add the lpg whilst weighing as it fills. There should be a nett weight stamped on the bottle. This is the weight of the contents when full. Add the two weights together for your target weight. To stay on the safe side I'd only fill to say 60/70% before stopping.

[@ezy2Learn]

Your information is correct somehow, but there are two ways to refill propane bottle, by weight as you have mentioned or by decanting until the bottle starts to vent propane (which is the most common method in all gas refilling station) and there's no way to be able to fill a bottle 100%!

[@neilp7024]

The gas bottles also have a fill weight and the safest way to transfer from bottle to bottle is turn the host bottle upside down,once you know the correct amount of gas you need to put in the receiver bottle on some scales,start to transfer the gas and loosen the bleed valve on the receive bottle,you will see the vapour coming out of the bleed when its about 60/70 % full then you will see the lpg gas and yes only fill to 80 % altho in the uk we fill to 85/87 percent if we are filling storage tanks...oh and make sure you wear some goggles and artic gloves........ if you breath this shit in you could be bang in trouble...i deliver lpg for a living via a tanker its not to be messed around with.

[@rafiatayee7798]

The bleeder that you opened with red screwdriver, during the refilling process the bleeder remains open ? Or u just quickly open the bleeder in the beginning and then close it off during the refill process?

[@johnlayzell4748]

thanks for that and turning the feed bottle upside down is correct and leave the bleed valve open till receive bottle is full you should see white gas at the exhaust port, now close bleed valve and feed and receiver valves, done.

[@ezy2Learn]

Thank you

[@doraexplora9046]

Very few Australian guides on InnerTube. So this was good. You should do a follow up vid with the 9kg on the table and the 4kg on the floor. Also, try it with a 'dead man' switch and a hose.

[@drumsnbikes]

I love how he's got an air compressor, but he had to bolt the hose to his door frame 😂

[@ezy2Learn]

I agree with you hahahaha I do have a vise but it is bolted indoor with low light condition, I wanted the video to be bright and clear, so I clamped it to the wall instead which I do a lot if I need to do something up high (eye level) if you know what I mean. But that was a funny comment 😂

[@karenmills6459]

Brilliant thank you so much for sharing this. Loved watching you 3 take care stay safe 😘😘😘

[@Helliconia54]

So,if you watch an official video teaching the correct (safe) way to decant. you'll see the same basic procedure. However use spanner to tighten fittings. EARTH your self and BOTH bottles.

[@dmasa01]

Thanks for the how to! It works a treat!

[@glenwilkie1331]

Cheers for the video. I was led to believe that a gas bottle shouldn't be turned upside down??

[@davidcollins2258]

@@glenwilkie1331 It shouldn't be when it is being used to supply a gas appliance. Only turn upside down for decanting.

[@paulpincott]

PLEASE ALL WATCHERS, YOU MUST ONLY FILL TO 80% BECAUSE THE GAS EXPANDS MORE THAN 80% WILL BE RISK OF EXPLOSION, SO WHEN FILLING ALWAYS WEIGH THE BOTTLE

[@ezy2Learn]

Thank you

[@condor5635]

It’s really the liquid expanding not the gas... liquid propane expands 17 time that of water for same temp delta. The 80% covers that not really the gaseous component. Gaseous propane will vent out of overpressure valve as will liquid but you don’t want liquid venting because it will then expand 257 times per unit as it becomes gas.

[@step2807]

When you transfer the gas from a big container to a small one does the pressure of it increase?

[@pbsalyid5323]

All bottles are made to withstand equal pressure, so regardless shouldn’t matter

[@rafiatayee7798]

Excellent video

[@tokpaben]

Isn't it dangerous to create a spark near or close to the inlet/outlet valve? By hitting any metal can create a spark.

[@ROLFCOPTERZZ]

brass hammers were used in ww2 to disarm bombs because they dont make sparks

[@paulsiviour7001]

Good video. I enjoyed it. Thanks.

[@HDXFH]

Need to get the liquid in there and be sure to fill by weight

[@oneandatwoanda]

The supply tank had to be turned upside down because liquid fills the other and not gas. This is dangerous. The valve can freeze. The hose can freeze. Not recommended

If only you had shopped at *Blue LPG* and all the hose mucking around would not have been necessary.....

[@bomatechtv]

WHAT WAS TE PURPOSE OF THE BREATHER, COULD IT NOT RELEASE ALL THE GAS THAT YOU HAD FILLED INTO THE SMALL BOTTLE?

[@brettwhitla4425]

Not that I agree with this guys methods but... The discharging bottle should have been inverted from the start so that LIQUID propane was discharged, not just gas... The receiving bottle stays upright and the bleeder screw (BREATHER) is opened and closed slightly during filling to release the gas pressure until you see liquid coming from the bleed port. That way you know the bottle is totally filled. The method he used would have been lucky if he got the bottle half full. REFILL gas bottles have a tube going to the bottom to draw straight from the liquid.

[@ezy2Learn]

You are fully right! I usually don't invert the discharging bottle unless it's half full or less. I didn't face issues filling up 2kg bottles from 9kg in the past , but I agree with you.

This is the most inept engineering that i've seen in a long time. Do you really have so few tools? Why didn't you explain why you used the bleed valve and inverted the source tank? English may not be your first language, but do you really need a voice synthesizer?

[@ezy2Learn]

This is far from an engineer DIY video. The idea of my channel is to get jobs done with minimum basic tools that most of us have at home, there's no point to post a DIY video with fancy tools that most of people don't have! Apology if I didn't provide more details about bleed valve! and BTW, there is no tool on the market that can take off the ferrule metal sleeve that's permanently swaged without damaging the barb. So, Hopefully you have learnt something new after watching my video. English is my fourth language and my video has delivered my idea very clearly. If you are online to discriminate people, you may choose not to engage with others! Thanks for your comments :)
