Agreed, single use propane bottles are not designed to "refillable tank specifications" and therefore, pose a safety hazard...the valves are not designed for multiple uses and the steel used is not the same grade as, say...a 20lb tank.

Toss them. The valves on them are so cheap, usually after just the first hookup they won't seal right again. I used to have an adapter that allows you to refill from a 20 pound tank and every one I tried I had to keep hooked up to an appliance to keep it from leaking.

I have accumulated a lot of those supposed throw away propane bottles. We have an outdoor stove and a Little Buddy heater. Are there any tricks to refilling them, or should one just toss them?
