DOZYANT POL-to-QCC1 Propane Adapter

This adapter is the short connection piece in my propane purchases, rather than a hose or regulator. Recording the two connector types helps keep it distinct from the other brass fittings in the kit.

The item in my kit

I bought DOZYANT POL-to-QCC1 Propane Adapter as part of my camper van equipment.

This adapter is the short connection piece in my propane purchases, rather than a hose or regulator. Recording the two connector types helps keep it distinct from the other brass fittings in the kit.

Where it fits my build

My Day 87 plan put the body openings ahead of the aluminum framing, flooring and wall panels. I specifically included the shower drain and the openings for three water tanks in that order of work.

I removed cargo tie-down hardware to leave mounting points for the extrusion framing, and removed door trim for the later insulation and paneling. SketchUp helped me plan how those separate jobs would fit together.

My build notes

The useful part of this diary entry is the sequence. I wanted to finish the drilling while the interior metal was bare, so later work would not mean opening finished surfaces again.

The photographs show my preceding floor-preparation session. Sweeping, washing and removing residue created the starting point for the interior work I described next.

I planned the openings and mounting access before enclosing the interior.

Alternative products

Two alternatives to compare

The Flame King and second POL-to-QCC1 adapters serve the same connector transition. Body shape and the hand-tightening arrangement distinguish these compact alternatives.

This Flame King adapter changes a POL propane-tank connection to QCC1. Its compact brass body provides a single connector transition.
