Are you talking about the AUX Propane Connection on the R-Pod? If so it is low pressure. You can't connect a grill with a built in regulator to the line, in other words you can't regulate twice. You have to modify grill connections to eliminate the regulator. CAMCO makes an adapter that allows you to run off your on board tank, by adding low pressure and high pressure ports in line with your present propane system, I use that as I don't have an AUX Propane connection.

Can the Coleman roadtrip grill be hooked up directly to the propane connection on the R-Pod?  So we wouldn't have to use the small, disposable propane tanks.  


You can buy an adapter hose that will feed it straight from the 20 pound tank, using a splitter valve, OR, you can modify the grill to accept low pressure to run it from the Pod's low pressure port, if your Pod has one.

Splitter Valve. You will then need a 20lb to 1lb adapter hose.

Convert to low pressure.

actually, the regulator is not built in.  it came with the grill but you have to screw it on every time you want to use the grill.  I'll figure out how to get a picture on here.

If the regulator is not built in, you just need the connecting hose. From the AUX connection on Pod to the regulator connection on grill.

Do an advanced search on "Post Images". Most of us use postimage.org. Once in post image. Select image size (800X600). Select removal time. Open pic source. Choose image. Go to "Hotlink for Forums". Click on Blue Folder icon. Indicates copied. Return to post - Control V, you can copy one image at a time.

Yes... as was posted above, you can either use a hose with an end that fits the 5gallon tank on one end, and the 1 pound bottle connection on the other, continuing to run on high pressure..

OR,

You can convert that assembly, by removing the regulator and and adding the parts to plug into the low pressure feed provided on your Pod.

OR,

You can continue to pay $17 a gallon for propane in 1 pound cylinders.
