We have a 182g. I love cooking on the grill hooked up to the quick connect under the garage. We recently cooked some bacon and eggs inside the rpod, but I really wanted to do it outside. I couldn't imagine the smell that would linger inside if I had blackened fish. So I figure that I want to put a portable stove burner outback. I would store it in the left undercounter sink-like structure. I think they call it the cooler, but we will never use it for that. Right now it is just a great place to store pots, pans, etc. The easy way would be to just use a Coleman camping stovetop and th small propane canisters. But it would be great if I could also hook it to the quick release at the same time the grill is running. Can you put a splitter in the quick release? Even if I can't use a splitter and have to change out the line from one cooker to the other, can those camping stoves that use the small propane cylinders be used with the quick release line? Does it need some kind of inline converter. I would guess the connector and the pressure would be different. Any advice from someone who has done any mod like this would be appreciated. ------------- Tim and Melina 2016 182G 2015 GMC Canyon crew cab 4x4 SLT = main Tv 2017 Toyota Highlander Hybrid-TV |

It's all about finding a Y with the correct type of connectors. Your additional BBQ appliance will be equipped with it's own regulator so pressure should not be an issue. If you live near a Camping World, that would be a good place to check for the adapter. Next best place would be an RV parts supply. You can also check online. Camco has a bunch of LP supply adapters for RVs. Good luck, let us know how it works out.  ------------- Cliff & Raelynn Ranger 4.0/178 (1/2 ton 5,800lb tow capacity) |
