Can't find Champion propane fitting

[1Dave]

I bought a Champion 2500W Dual Fuel Inverter for my 19. I want to connect it directly to my low pressure supply but the fitting is different on the Inverter to the Standard fitting on the hose I have. I have searched everywhere, contacted Champion, no luck so far. Please look at the attached image. If you know where I can buy the Male Champion style fitting or know where to search for it, please comment. THANKS!

I found the correct adaptor at a RV sales place that had a large parts / accessor show room.
I tried all the hardware type of stores first, no go.
Camping World sells champion generators, they might have the fitting.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out

You will need to retain the "demand regulator" (the big one) for this approach. The hose from the demand regulator to the generator is also a "specified" length and that little black barb at the gen fitting needs to be retained. (believe it cuts off gasoline flow?)

You can loose the initial high pressure regulator (the small one) when utilizing a low pressure (regulated) port.

But, get both!. For my Champion 2500 dual fuel I separated the demand regulator from the initial high pressure regulator and added a QC approach as shown below. I can use the trailer low pressure QC, or #20/#30/#40/etc.. tanks directly as needed. You can also use a "standard" QC propane hose extension if wanted to move the gen and demand regulator away from the trailer QC port.






See here for some ideas: (different model Champion - but same idea)

You should NOT connect the hose from the trailer quick disconnect directly to the generator. You need the large diaphragm portion of the included connection hose.
