Great... that helps bunches... I stumbled onto something that is NOT clear on the Napaleon website... the kit (66287) contains not only their 6ft hose, but also the other parts necessary to make the modification... it was confusing, so I wrote them and they confirmed that there are several parts in the kit, NOT just the hose...
With the kit installed, and not using their 6 ft hose, did you use a longer LP hose to work with your RV? If so, what hose did you use? I would like one that is between 12-20 ft in length to keep the grill away from the RV... and I would want to have a quick disconnect on both ends so I can just store it separately...
Thanks for helping me out on this!Cowboychincs

Yup... if you used their hose, it is 6 ft... I would feel safer and it would be more convenient if it were 12-20 feet away from the camper...

Folks... just trying to find out what grill you are using with your low pressure connection on your RV... I would really like to order a new grill, and I want one that I can have a 12-20 ft quick connect hose (both ends) so that I can keep it away from my camper... safety first... as always...

After lots (and lots... and lots... you get the idea) I really like the idea of a Blackstone originally. Yet, after using my BIL's unit, the grease catch in the back absolutely drove me bonkers with food getting lost into the catch with my style of cooking. Then I found the Camp Chef VersaTop 2X and loved it. Then saw the price. I was willing to deal with the price, but it's out of stock for a few months per the manufacturer... I needed a grill sooner than that. So, being the Harbor Freight junkie I am (for reference) I went on an Amazon Chinese manufacturer scavenger hunt. I had decided I really liked the stove top idea and the multiple use application for when I needed it. Ended up going slightly larger than I had originally planned (figured it would spend most of its time outside any how).
Here's my setup I ordered:
VivoHome Outdoor 3-burner Stove with detachable legs (like typical Chinese stuff there's several brands but nearly all are identical). No messing around with regulators if I dont want to.

2 Burner Camp Chef Griddle. I went with 2 burner for a few reasons. Mainly weight reduction and also having an exposed 3rd burner... having a side burner is insanely helpful. Pot, pan, warmer, etc.

24' quick connect hose

Grease catch I'm hoping I can get to work with my set up with little to no modifications.

Carry case for it all

Adapter to be able to have a secondary propane accessory (like propane firepit)

I spent a little less that I would have for the Camp Chef VersaTop 2X. I get a more adaptable grill (been looking at this pizza oven https://smile.amazon.com/Camp-Chef-A...p+chef+&sr=8-4 ).

Texas Yankee... great info... and a very nice setup... pretty amazing portable kitchen you have!
I'm trying to minimize, so am just looking for a small portable grill, maybe like the Napaleon Pro 285... but am having a difficult time finding anyone who has one that has connected a longer hose (12-20ft) with quick disconnects. I tried my Char-Broil with a longer hose... it failed because of the regulator on the grill and Char-Broil did NOT have a replacement regulator offered.... so will swap it out for one that works with a longer LP hose so I can keep the grill away from the RV a tad...Cowboychincs

They do have single and double burner set ups exactly like I posted above for cheaper.
I think you're over thinking it. You don't need a regulator at all for your portable grill since the trailer already has one. No need for a replacement regulator. So basically you're looking for a grill that has the ability to remove the regulator and thread a quick connect fitting in its place and run whatver length hose you need. Length of hose will not affect much until you get down to the end of the tanks and lose pressure.

I am sure you are correct about over thinking it... the grills I have found are run by 1lb propane tanks and thus do not have a place to "screw on" a quick connect port... the Napaleon has a "conversion kit" that I can purchase that comes with a 6' hose... I can always do that, but use a longer hose that I can get from Amazon... but I do not know the specifics of the port on the Napaleon so it is hard to order the hose until I have the grill in my possession... so was hoping that someone had already done this and knows exactly what hose/fitting to purchase...
Thanks tons for all the help... it will all come together soon... and if there are other small grills folks have used, I am not tied to Napaleon.... just want something that works well and easy to clean/setup....Cowboychincs
