Flame King 1/2LB Propane Tank, Refillable and Empty Cylinder for Small Propane Lamps, Lanterns and Camp Stoves

I use this for a mosquito repellent device. The device was made for those camping gas containers. They are really expensive so I got one of these 1/2 pound propane bottles and put an adapter on it. I like how sturdy the tank is sitting on the ground. Much less chance of tipping over than with a one pound tank. This paid for itself in one summer with the ability to refill from a 20 pound tank. It should last a long time. I like it.

I had planned to give this a a gift, I will find them something else cause I am keeping it.

I have to agree with everyone else, it does wobble a bit. It literally just needs an extra 1/8” longer ring on the bottom to stop this. It happens because the bottom of the cylinder sticks out just a hair more than the ring. It would also be nice if they included the brass caps with it instead of the funky plastic one. Overall, it is a good size and I love how many offerings Flame King provides.

I have a bunch of these in larger size. They are easy to fill and well made. Saves a lot of money in propane expense. Works great and don't leak.

Much more environmentally friendly than disposables, easy to refill and the size is perfect for a long weekend camping trip. My only minor gripe is that one sits level on a flat surface and one does not...the ring was welded onto the bottom too high and the bottom of the tank protrudes just enough to make it rock.

I actually ordered a second one of these thinking maybe I just got a defect but they were both the same. Then I saw other people mentioned the same thing, so I am returning them for now to look for an alternative, or I guess will try re-buying again later? I got these to use with a small set on burner for cooking, however the bottom of them does not sit flush so they wobble back and forth or spin which is incredibly dangerous for cooking and defeats the entire purchase. I saw someone mention putting trim liner on them, which would probably work, but for a product the size of a baseball that is already twice as expensive than a single use container twice the size, that already has propane in it, these should be ready to go out the box no questions asked. $20 is way to much for such a simple design fix as increasing the base rim by a millimeter or attaching a nickles worth of liner. Severely disappointing, is there like a conspiracy among the manufacturers to make terrible re-usable products so we have to keep destroying the earth with single use garbage? Don't answer that, its rhetorical.

I love the Flame King propane refillable propane bottles...I like the lower ones when heating up water or something heavy so it will be more sturdy and not tip. I am happy with them and highly recommend all the Flame King Refillable propane to save $ and they are super easy to refill.

If you get a canister that wobbles you can fix it by adding car door trim on the bottom rim. Seeing how the seller has had multiple issues with this, they should provide car trim with their product... If they did it would be a five star review!

Its heavy but amazing at saving me money and easy to fill up. I would recommend it for car camping and not hikes etc….

The quality of these ½ lb tanks that I bought is maybe 7/10. Both of the cylinders I received would not sit flat on a table. They rocked around because the curve of the bottom of the tank is lower than the ring base that is welded to the tank. Not a big deal in most cases, but if I use the tank without an additional base for stability, whatever appliance you have on the tank will rock back and forth. Also, I did not receive a hex key for the valve on the tank.
