Great for refilling camp stove cans. My Coleman two burner runs all weekend on one refilled bottle.
★★★★★ Kartik S. May 1, 2026
Just turn the big tank upside down to get liquid propane instead of vapor. Works perfectly.
★★★★★ Michael C. April 25, 2026
Freeze the small bottle first. The empty can gets way colder. Fills more completely.
★★★★★ Heidi R. April 23, 2026
The threads are clean and smooth. No burrs or rough spots. Screws on easily by hand.

Perfect for my propane soldering torch. Now I don't stop mid project to swap bottles.
★★★★★ Michael L. February 16, 2026
The brass is thick not thin. You can feel the weight. This won't break under pressure.
★★★★★ David February 8, 2026
Fits disposable tanks. The material is solid brass, ensuring this will last for many years ahead.
★★★★★ Alexis G. February 4, 2026
The adapter is very straightforward. Big side to big tank. Small side to small bottle. Done.
★★★★★ Michael February 2, 2026

★★★★★ Shannon H. February 1, 2026
Great for off grid cabin living. I refill my lantern and stove bottles from my bulk tank.
★★★★★ HomeDepotCustomer January 17, 2026
A nice option to fill small tanks. I was a little skeptical as I never tried one of these before. To my surprise it works as it should. The only downfall is no directions came with it, but no problem just look it up online. It is made well, mostly brass. The money I will save by filling my own small tanks. It's very simple to use, screw it on your large tank, then screw your small tank on, tip the big tank upside down and open the valve. Made of nice material, built well and easy to use, sweet success. I think I will add a small gauge to make sure the small tank is filled perfectly.

Solid brass construction feels very durable. No plastic parts that will crack or break.
★★★★★ Pete January 15, 2026
A nice piece of equipment for the DIYer, handy-man, or homeowner. BACKGROUND: I have several propane torches that use 1lb disposable propane bottles. With the cost of purchasing new gas bottles, I was happy to try the Empava refill adapter to see if it would cut costs on the long term. FIT AND FINISH: The adapter is well made and is of the same or better quality of the other propane equipment I already own. FEATURES: • You can refill your empty 1 lb propane bottles from 20 to 30 lb propane tanks typically used for gas grills etc. • This can reduce operating costs for propane use. o I mainly use it to refill my propane torch bottles but it is also handy for refilling the small gas camp stove bottles. • No tools required, equipped with a hand-tightened hand wheel. o I use a wrench when attaching to bottle to ensure a gas tight seal. • Solid brass and heavy plastic makes it corrosion resistant and durable. • Cuts off gas flow automatically when pressure is reached. o This is only true for removing the 1 lb bottle first. If you remove the adapter with the bottle still attached it will allow bottle contents to leak out. • CSA approved propane refill adapter safe as per Canadian and US standardSs • Inlet: 3/8 in., flare fitting male qcc (acme). • Max working pressure 250-psi OPERATION: I found the best filling sequence as follows: 1. Put your empty 1 lb propane bottle in a fridge or freezer for several minutes before filling. This will help any residual gases to condense, allowing

Not Quite Certain What I Got but .... The adapter requested arrived in a box marked w/model empv-eh46 (see photo). The adapter received looks nothing like that model number pictured on the HD website. That being acknowledged I'm submitting a review based on the item I received (see photos). The adapter is solid brass and well built ...should give LONG life of use AND be rust-free at that. I'm lucky in that i saved all my 1 pound cans and can now refill/reuse them. the oversized threaded knob will assure a nice tight fit (think leak free) and won't require any tools. ...as for the smaller nut-type end; i may need to use a wrench to hold securely as i thread on the 1 pound tank. ....a great tool to have for any one using those 1 pound tanks.

Hand tight is enough but I use a wrench. Hand tight is usually enough but I use a small wrench on the 1 lb bottle side for safety.

My friends all borrow this adapter now. I might need to buy a second one.
★★★★★ Tyler September 23, 2024
Easy to use and saves you money. The adapter is very easy to use, and saves you quite a bit of money in the long run. You simply attach the adapter to the larger tank and then you can fill up the smaller green tanks that most people just throw away. Instructions provided are easy to follow. For the price, you can't go wrong. Refilling your green bottles just a couple times pays for the product itself.
★★★★★ Peggy S. August 30, 2024
Much better quality than the cheap plastic adapters I've seen online. This is all brass.
★★★★★ Brian August 20, 2024
Very useful. I originally wanted this for the portable camping stove/propane heater bottles you know the iconic green ones. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the thread pattern is the same for my propane torch bottle (see photos). The bottle I filled wasn't completely empty but it seemed to accept additional propane and appears to have filled without issue. I will let it run empty and try again to verify. This makes it very convenient as I have several spare propane bottles at the house.
★★★★★ Justin P. August 18, 2024
Works exactly as described. Screwed on. Flipped the big tank. Filled the small one. Done.
★★★★★ Andrew A. August 11, 2024
Best adapter for my propane torch. I used to go through a bottle every weekend. Now one lasts months.
★★★★★ Carol August 7, 2024
Riverview, FL. Ordered one and to my surprise, two showed up a day early! I am looking forward to using them to refill my next empty one pound propane canister. A local wholesale club is selling a six pack of one pound bottles for $30, but I can get a twenty pound canister refilled with propane for the same price.
★★★★★ Steven August 7, 2024
Safe auto shutoff. I love how simple the design is; it literally took seconds to install.
★★★★★ SA July 31, 2024
So awesome!! Great little tool to have. I absolutely love this little thing. I fill up my little camping cynlinders with it and it definitely pays for itself, very quickly as well!! If you like camping, or just use those smaller propane cylinders alot, definitely buy this!!
★★★★★ Wendy F. July 29, 2024
Works with 20 lb and 30 lb propane tanks. I've used it on both. No difference.
★★★★★ LindseyFaye July 23, 2024
Works as described minor challenges. Overall does what it was designed to do. I love how I am able to fill up my smaller 1lb camping tank without having to go fill it at a store. Didn't come with instructions, but found a how-to video online. The only minor complaint is the brass nut moves when hand tightening or loosening it. So you need decent hand strength to hold it while with your other hand move the smaller bottle or you could use a wrench to hold it from moving.
★★★★★ Tina F. July 11, 2024
This adapter is a no brainer purchase for anyone who uses those little green bottles.
★★★★★ Jane S. July 5, 2024
Works with all standard 1 lb disposable cylinders. Fits my Coleman, Bernzomatic, and no name brands.

★★★★★ Rick January 1, 2024
Great camping tool. Saving money on those disposable cylinders is exactly why I bought this today.
★★★★★ Sammy1492 May 15, 2023
Easy to use, saves time and money!! This adapter is easy to use. I save time by refilling my on pound cylinders at home and save money by not buying them new when I need them. Just be sure to use the adapter in a well ventilated area. I am very please with this adapter. There are several online videos you can watch to feel comfortable using it. If you can change a light bulb, you can use this product.
★★★★★ BuilderBob May 9, 2023
Works perfectl and build quality is high. This propane tank refilling adapter worked perfectly to refill a small green propane bottle I use with my propane torch head. The plastic black end of the adapter screws onto the large propane tank with the valve turned to the off position. The tank is then turned upside down so that liquid is used to fill the smaller canister. The smaller green canister is then screwed onto the brass end of the adapter. Sometimes a small amount of gas will be discharged when connecting or disconnecting the smaller canister. The tank fills best when done in two stages. Fill until you hear the pressure equalize, then remove the canister and put it in the freezer for 5 minutes. Then refill the canister some more until the pressure equalizes. At that point, the canister should be full. Naturally, all of this should be done where there is no ignition source nearby. The build quality is excellent and the threading is a perfect match.
