I like simple. I like not having to involve the FAA.
Is there a reasonable way to do this such that access to the valve on
the tank is not required? I think I'd be quite happy using a 36" hose
with a one-way (fill only) valve near the tank. Then I could put a
common fitting on the other end with an easily-removed cap.


Interesting question. I'm not sure of the answer. A gas supply (and
equipment) shop might be able to guide you. Ignoring the issue that your
temporary extension hose is now *permanently* attached G... Rather than
a one-way valve, why not just a simple in-line valve?

The place I use has a book, about a 1000 pages thick, of valves and
connectors and hoses. It's like the "have it your way" burger folks. You
just start picking one from group A, one from group B, ... A few days
later it arrives in a padded package.
