I totally agree with that

Very well kept grill for a freebie.

US Propane tanks look a lot more industrial than that style.

Picked the Spirit it up today after work, maybe a 10 min longer trip home Except for the crossover tube that seems to be clogged I can't find nothing wrong with it And that should be an easy fix

You can by the steel ones also, but they sell a lot more of the composite ones.

How much LP does those tanks hold?

 

[timothy]

Looks like our 5lb tank.

 

[Bruce]

Taller and skinnier however.

 

[LMichaels]

They're metric equivalent of our 20lb tanks

Hmmmm. I like the composite ones. They look nice, but I imagine they are more expensive. I wonder how well they hold up over the years.

The ones (composite) I use are significantly lighter, approximately half the weight of a steel cylinder, making it easier to lift and carry. but with the same amount of propane. They hold up very well. They're translucent, so you can also see through them which enables you to see the amount of gas left. Downside is if you use them when it's cold the evaporation capacity may be less effective than steel cylinders, especially when the gas level is low in cold conditions.
