Little Buddy Heater Question

[shadowstalker]

Has anyone had trouble hooking up a propane tank up to the little Buddy Heaters? It runs fine on the disposable cylinders, but I was having trouble with it was hooked to a larger tank when we went camping over Labor Day.

the only problem i had turned out to be the hose.

Make sure the hose you are using from the large tank does NOT have a regulator. The Little Buddy heater has it's own internal regulator and having another one affects the burn. I found this out trying to tap into an existing regulated line in a past camper I had.

I gumed one up, the new one has had no problems after buying a filter from sportmans.
