Big Buddy ?'s

[NanookofN-MN]

Ok so I decided to splurge and get a Big Buddy heater, found them for 99.99.  I don’t want to be buying/filling 1lb tanks all the time so I am looking to hook it up to a 20lb propane tank.  I have looking online to find the right hose but the only one I can find with the quick fit adaptor and pressure regulator is 12’ long, and about 45.00.  I figured there have to be a few guys on here running their Big Buddy’s off 20lb tanks anybody have a good place to look for a shorter hose would prefer it with a quick connect so I don’t need the inline filter?

Thanks

I bought my 12' quick from cabelas. Not sure on the price, hose really isn't that long if you have the tank outside of the shack/tent.

pm me if you want the name of a guy here in canada that will make you a hose, any length you want that stays flexible down to the -40's. He's a certified gas fitter, and the hose he uses is very high end, no worries about crap flaking off and jamming up your heater.

Yeah, I paid something like $40 for that quick connect hose.   When it's cold and hose gets all stiff, it doesn't matter so much about that 12'.
