Cooking With Gas

Most of us enjoy the BBQ when camping as our primary source of cooking while enjoying nature.  I have tried many of grills and found that my Weber Q 5662 Gas Grill is the best that I have cooked on.  The light weight easy to store grill uses a portable propane tank or can be used with a hose adapter to use a standard 20 lbs propane tank. I have used both style tanks and so far, the 20 lbs tank has lasted me 3 months, and still cooking.

If you don't bring your own portable table with you when camping or need a place to put the grill for cooking, I would recommend picking up one of Weber's rolling carts to go with this great grill!

Marshall Gas Control Indicator

Most of the RV’s on the road today tell you everything you need to know about liquid, battery, and power levels with the RV’s on-board sensors.  The one thing that is most commonly missing is how much propane you have left in your tanks.   This is an important need to know especially if you’re camping in cold weather.  What would you do if you ran out of propane in the middle of the night and your family had no heat to keep warm?  With this simple solution, you will always know when your primary tank is out of fuel and you are running on your secondary / reserve tank.

My 5^th wheel has (2) 30 lb tanks.  I know exactly when I need to refill the primary tank by an amber light that comes on when I automatically switch over to the second tank.  In order to accomplish this modification your RV needs to be equipped with a Marshall 250 series 2-stage LP regulator or similar model.
