## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a true 5 pound / gallon tank? Also, are these demonsion the outside deminsions and accurate?  + I have the camp chef oven-best hose to connect**
A: Here is where people get confused. A 5 lb tank holds a little over 1 gal of propane. Your standard BBQ tank is a 20 lb tank holding 5 gal of propane. The connection should work fine with any hose that will connect to a BBQ, camp stove etc. I have used them for years for both.

**Q: Can this be stored on its side?**
A: Regarding forklifts. Motor fuel tanks use a dip tube that allows the *liquid* propane to run to the motor where it is used to power the vehicle. 

BBQ and other propane tanks have a valve at the top that allows propane *gas* to go out the tube for combustion at the BBQ or whatever. The tank has liquid at its lowest points and gas is all at the highest points. There must be gas (not liquid) present at the level of the valve. 

Using a standard propane tank for a standard use like a BBQ, gas fire pit, gas stove, etc requires the tank to be stored upright so the gas goes out the tube to the appliance. 

These cylinders also have a pressure relief valve on the top. If the tank is overheated and is at risk of rupturing the valve will open to release some gas. This safety feature can be compromised if the tank is not stored upright.

**Q: What is the diameter of the ring on the bottom of the tank? Trying to replace current tanks, which have a ring diameter of ~ 6 1/2".**
A: The diameter of the bottom ring is exactly 6 1/2".

**Q: Why is cheaper 5lbs tank with gauge is better quality without gauge? Thank you**
A: I will go out on a limb and without research, I will throw in my 2cents. First the IMHO the gauge does not improve tank quality. Only saleability. Gauges read pressure and not actual liquid content and will differ depending on temperature.
Quality. All tanks are all built to a DOT standard which probably specs the steel type and thickness, welding, testing and internal parts as per the DOT CODE stamped into the collar. 
Tanks can cost less depending where the steel is sourced, labor, parts and paint but, it has to meet the DOT specifications. 
Hope my ramblings help a bit.

*by  on Reviewed in the United States April 10, 2026*

This 5 lb propane tank is exactly what I needed for my grill and portable setup.What I liked:Perfect size for camping and small grillsFeels sturdy and well-builtEasy to carry and connectGood quality safety valve and constructionIt’s compact but still lasts a good amount of time depending on use. Makes it much easier than dealing with the big heavy tanks for quick setups.Overall: Reliable, portable, and does the job perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great size, park picnic cookouts and travel size....
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 4, 2026*

this is a great option for travel propane, it is light, small....SMALL and will drive a propane cook top for hours. did i mention it is small, SMALL.i have 3, one is for filling one pound propane bottles that saves me at a minimum 6 dollars per bottle. i rotate out the 1 pound disposable bottles at 5 years since i cant inspect for rust inside, and my life is worth more than 6 dollars.the bottles meet the same standard as the large ones, and can have valve repair done at a propane shop for the same price as the large ones.did i mention i have 3.....i have 100 pound bottles and everything down and by far, this one is the one that gets the most use as i just grab it up and head out for a picknic with the dogs and kids. i like the dogs, they are mine, the kids, eh, maybe

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small, convenient and portable
*by  on Reviewed in the United States March 16, 2025*

I purchased this 5lb propane cannister from Flameking for my two burner Coleman stove/chuck box because its small, convenient and portable . It arrived without any imperfections no damage, no scratches or dings considering its management during transportation. Regarding its size, and wieght its definitely manageable and portable. Which is a plus for me because i have poor dexterity. Its small foot print will make it convenient because it can be placed just about anywhere, back seat, trunk or mounted to a truck bed. This tank will provide more than enough gas for a weekend getaway or whenever we want to head to the local park for an unscheduled dinner. All in all it's a good tank, that offers a great compact size, that does what it's supposed todo. Help keep you fed, warm or both.Hope this helps, enjoy a day away!
