Thank you for responding. I'm 100% sure there was and still is propane in the one tank and the other ran heat/stove/fridge... until it didn't
. Thinking along that thought process, when we got back home, i connected the one "full" tank to my bbq and just let it run for about 5min before i turned it off. I haven't weighed it yet, but i can do that tomorrow.
What i should have done was move the tank to the other compartment and test it there before i moved it to the storage yard... which will be my next test.
The main thing i'm trying to figure out is whether there are supposed to be regulators inline from the tank to the auto-changeover switch:
Tank1-->hose-->Regulator-->hose-->one side of the auto-changeover switch
Tank2-->hose-->Regulator-->hose-->other side of the auto-changeover switch
since the auto-changeover switch seems to be a regulator also, it just seemed to be double "regulating".
