For the Huky owners out there using the IR burner. Which propane bottles are you using and what size hose and fittings are these generally compatible with?

Many thanks

Stuart,

I purchased a 20 lb. propane tank from Home Depot and used the regulator and hose with attached fittings as supplied by Mr. Li. I wish I had quick disconnect capability, but they may be more prone to leaking - I really don't know. This is all I can tell you.

Similar to the Home Depot tank I got a Blue Rhino 15 lb tank at Lowes. I must have 50 roasts done and the tank still reads 3/4 full. I also use the hardware that came with the stock IR stove and roaster.
