Is the Mr heater 75000btu hose sold in the store compatible with the Coleman two burner propane Stove or will I need any extra fitting or adapter? I tryed my stove with a small tank works but doesn't work when I'm connected to my 20 lb tank.

I m ean those little bottles at Wal-Mart worked but my 20lb setup isn't working with that Mr heater hose and I tryed two big tanks gonna try another probably Coleman hose. I also saw the 20lb tank with a gauage on it so I'm returning this one.
Also , does anyone have the Coleman burner grill combo that comes w the electric start wondering if that's a hastle to clean. Probably should have just got a single burner and the burner on the right side has actually probably broke it's stuck on super low.

I'm a little confused by the question, but all propane appliances that use the little green bottles will use the same adapter hose. The adapter hose adapts a bulk refillable tank to the little green bottles.

I was confused too. I have an adapter that goes from #20 to #1 bottles but it might not work with stoves that don't have the hose but instead the rigid steel tubing. My stove has a flexible hose so the adapter works well but would be unusable if the stove had the rigid steel tubing instead.

I don't think it matters about metal or rubber arm. My Coleman 1 burner has a metal arm and Judy has one with a rubber arm and we both use an adapter hose.
The hose screws into where the green bottle would go, it doesn't matter what kind of arm. If it takes a green bottle the adapter hose will work.

I have two adapter hoses. Each has an end that screws into the place the little green bottles attach. Each has an end that screws into the valve outlet on the 20 pound tank. But, one has a pressure regulator at the 20 pound end that reduces the propane pressure to the appliance. Some appliances have their own pressure regulator. I can see no reason double regulators would not work, but I have not tested this. So, maybe that is your problem?

My guess is you have the hose for the Big Buddy. It's some weird hybrid thing I don't understand.
Camping appliances are almost all high pressure and must not have a regulator on them.

My atwood furnace came with a built in regulator and electronic valving, but would not function without a tank regulator as well.....
My low dollar camp stove is happy with or without a tank regulated hose....

good to hear. I was going to say the hose. like bob said doesn't really matter about the hard tube or the rubber one. all propane appliances have a regulator. some are built in so you run high pressure to it. some are remote or on the tank. highdesertranger
When I hit warmer weather I am going to test this idea of mine. The pressure regulators take the high pressure input and out put lower steady pressure. If a regulated lower pressure is inputted to a second regulator it should just pass that pressure through with no problem. Do not the small canisters drop in pressure as the propane runs empty?
