The generator runs so poorly on LP that we've given up attempting to use it with anything other than gasoline. I was hoping to use the contents of the bottle with a Little Buddy portable propane heater, and had a couple of questions. The setup has a regulator attached to the bottle, a 1/2" compression coupling to 10' hose, and a threaded end that fits the generator but not the heater. The heater looks like it requires a 1" outside thread. Should I just bypass all that and buy & connect a new (Buddy) hose to bottle and heater, or do I need a regulator here, too? (I've used 1 & 20 lb. bottles with just a straight hose and this heater before, but does the larger bottle result in too much pressure for this appliance?) Any advice would be most welcome.
