Default 5 or 10 Propane Tank.

My Uncle gave me his old Tank top heater. I was looking but could not find a 5 or 10 tank for it I could pull a 20 and it would take less fill ups but it weigh more and take up more space in the tent. Where can I get odd sized tanks? I'm not sure on the model but it is a mr buddy.

And be prepared to pay twice the cost for a tank half the size of a 20.

Guys,

Make sure that the "new" tank was recertified. Some are just repainted and resold.
Some of the "new" tanks may not be stale dated but might only have a short time left till they are.
Check the date!


Don
