    You could mount a excess flow valve for extra safety!

    That would help keep the ball of flame down to about a 25 ft. diameter and then it would taper down to about 6 ft' long at the end of a whipping hose. Well, that is the picture in my demented head. Nobody bends safety rules more than I do and I will say I have been very lucky in my life. I think I will try this direct tank hook up in my first design but I am going to go with this hose. >> Gas Regulator Replacement Hoses I have had a lot of equipment with various types of hoses and pressures and I will tell you that crossing apples with oranges in this case is not a good idea at all. If you run a petroleum product through a hose that is not rated for it the hose will slowly deteriorate from the inside and you won't see it coming. If you look at the pressure ratings on the 2 types of hose on that site you will get a better picture of what I am saying.
    I did check on the tank pressure and it can be from 100 to 200 psi. Propane Regulator Facts , High pressure and low pressure propane , propane 101

    And Charlie, I am keeping my fingers crossed for you !
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
