Flame King (KT12ACR-2a) 2-Stage Auto Changeover LP Propane Gas Regulator With Two 12 Inch Pigtails For RVs, Vans, Trailers

It could not have easier to replace my regulator on my RV! I had a propane leak a few weeks ago on my RV. I did the leak test with soapy water and found the fitting where the hose attaches to the propane bottle had a leak on one of my propane tanks. I decided to just replace the hoses on both of my tanks/regulator. When I bought the 2 hoses, I decided to buy a gas leak detector to check all my other propane items (grill, griddle, etc.). Not only did I have a leak again in BOTH hoses, I had a leak on my regulator as well. I decided to buy this regulator with both hoses already attached and it works like a charm! Perfect fit! Very easy installation! The hoses seem to be good quality as well as the regulator. I think Flame King should include in this kit a small spool of yellow propane PTFE tape (everyone has the white teflon tape, but DO NOT use it for propane!!!)) to install the regulator on the main propane gas line....that was my only downside for the DIY's. Other than no PTFE tape, I'm very satisfied.

It's been on my RV for 5 years now works great

Worked great with out two tanks

Used to replace a recalled unit on my 2020 Grand Design Imagine. Easy to change out and worked great. Only worry is that the tank hoses were kinda flimsy, but we will see how they last.

Easy to install

Did what it states.

I am extremely disappointed in this. We bought it last July when our RV regulator failed and started leaking propane. We installed it at the end of the season and didn't get a chance to test it out. This season when we went out to start our camping season the RV was not getting propane. After looking at the regulator the area that is supposed to change from red to clear/green was not changing no matter which tank we turned it to. Both tanks were filled that day so we knew that the tanks weren't the issue. We then had to try to track down another regulator to attempt to fix this issue which we couldn't do because of the time of day. We ended up spending the night in 40 degree weather with no heat. Once we did get a regulator the next day we ended up having to purchase one without the pigtails for the tanks, figuring we could use the ones off of the regulator purchased here. When we got the hoses off we were quite surprised by what we discovered. It appears that during the manufacture process the hoses were defective. Within both hoses the connection between the hose and the regulator was plugged. One side had an excess of red material which I'm assuming was used as sealant for the connection. The other side had a metal part blocking the opening between the hose and the regulator. This caused both feeds to the regulator to not function causing us the problem. I am quite surprised that during the quality assurance portion of the manufacture process that this was not discovered and I'm very disappointed.

Did the job

Does exactly what it claims to do. Auto switch between tanks and indicator tells which tank is being used and status of the propane.

Item was priced better than most, arrived when expected, item is as described and works great. Automatically switches from tank to tank when one becomes empty. I have this installed at an odd.grid cabin to power the propane fridge and stove. A few weeks ago, I was not there for a week and when I arrived, my fridge was showing an error indicating it was not receiving propane. Everything in the fridge had thawed and spoiled. I went outside to find both tanks empty. I figured I was low but estimated I had another week of propane left. I connected a new tank and heard a hiss and could smell.propane and noticed something had chewed thru the supply line and all.my propane had leaked out. I needed to order new braided stainless steel propane lines to replace the rubber lines included with the regulator. I find this odd as the single tank regulator that I previously had was there for 14 years without an issue and 2 months after I change to this, something chews thru the rubber. I'm assuming it's similar to the issue with the coating on electrical.wires in new cars that critters find yummy. The supply line from the regulator.to the fridge and stove was also rubber so I ordered a copper braided "sock" to cover the line just in case.

Works as intended! Changeover works flawlessly. Indicator is clear and I've had no issue with flow. Mounting points worked from my old regulator on my 1980's Okanagan Camper. Recommend if you want to add a second tank to your old camper and if you have the room for the tanks; My space is a little tight but this regulator fits nicely in between them.

Easy to install and works perfect

Do not buy this product as the pigtail connecters are defective after about a month of having this installed and only changing the tanks once before I went to change them again I noticed both pigtail connecters were cracked and I could smell propane leaking out these plastic green connecters split and crack. I did not over tighten and temperatures outside. Got to maybe -5 to -10 degrees Celsius.
