Designed for campers, tailgaters and outdoor hobbyists, this accessory attaches to a standard 1 lb propane canister and splits the connection into a top distribution post plus two side outputs with auto-shutoff male throwaway cylinder threads. It ships with a 15-inch distribution post and a heavy-duty storage bag for neat transport and protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the distribution post let me use multiple propane appliances at once?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit takes the single inlet from a 1 lb disposable propane cylinder and routes gas to three separate outlets, so you can run a lantern on the top post while two other devices connect to the side ports. The side outlets use 1\"-20 threaded male throwaway cylinder fittings with built-in auto-shutoff for quick, secure attachment. The top outlet is dedicated to the included 15\" distribution post, which raises a lantern connection away from the cylinder for safer placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTop outlet connects to the included 15-inch distribution post for lanterns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo side outlets: 1\"-20 male throwaway cylinder threads with auto-shutoff\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAllows simultaneous operation of up to three appliances\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSimple screw-on installation to standard 1 lb propane cylinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Camco 51096 safe and easy to set up at a campsite?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the distribution post uses common threaded fittings and auto-shutoff connectors to minimize leaks and speed attachments. Setup only requires screwing the unit to a disposable cylinder and attaching your devices; no special tools are needed. The 15\" post keeps a lantern clear of the canister, and the auto-shutoff side threads limit unintended gas flow when disconnecting appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTool-free screw-on installation for quick campsite setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAuto-shutoff side fittings reduce accidental gas flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRaised distribution post improves safety and clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact design stores in the included carrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat types of appliances can I connect, and are there compatibility limits?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe side ports and top post work with common portable propane appliances such as lanterns, camp stoves, small grills, portable heaters and campfire devices that accept 1\"-20 throwaway cylinder threads or a lantern-style connection. It’s intended for disposable 1 lb cylinders; it’s not designed for permanent larger bulk tanks or line-pressure systems.
