Extend-a-stay

[Old_Crow]

Anyone else ever notice that when running your motor home off an external propane bottle using the extend-a-stay that the bottle always seems to go empty at around 3:30am?

At least it wasn't 30 degrees when I went outside...this time.  :

Wally,

Get one of the small tank gauges at Home Depot or Lowe's.  Not real accurate, but if you disconnect and refill when the gauge is in the yellow, you can avoid the middle of the night change overs.  And, yes, I learned the hard way too!

I can tell when they're getting close just by picking them up and "swishing" them.  IF I remember.  Therein lies the problem  ;D

I've gotten pretty good at checking the cylinder weight just by lifting it, but if I'm in doubt I use a simple hanging fish scale to check it.

I leave notes on my computer to remind me to do things....Now I just have to remember to check the computer

Murphy's law: If anything can go wrong it will.. At the worst possible time.

I am a dedicated follower of Murphy.. Oh my last name is Davis and how this got in the official Murphy's law books with my name on it I will never know but I wrote it.

Davis' corollary to Murphy's law:  If nothing can go wrong..... It will anyway.

Yeah,  I sort of cringe every time I fix something in the coach, wondering what will be next.
