What kind of gauge do I need for the 20# propane tank on the 13' Scamp?
Is the size standard for this too? I need to be able to tell how much propane is
left in the tank...thanks!

For my 16' Scamp.

mine is calibrated on the "safe" side empty is not empty yet but soon will be.
So it's not a gauge you add to the tank? It's a whole new set of propane tanks?

pressure gauges do not work well in cold temps. You can also just get accustomed to lifting the tank up to see what it feels like.
And this side note if you happen to get sold Butane down south and head into the cold.
Propane and Butane:When comparing propane and butane, the most important differences come down to the boiling point of the gases. Propane has a boiling temperature of -42°C, whilst butane has a higher boiling point at -2°C.
This means that propane will continue to vaporize and turn to gas in colder climates, which is perfect for the cold winters we get here in Ontario and for outdoor use. When stored as a liquid in a tank, propane also exerts a greater pressure than butane at the same temperature. This makes it more suitable for exterior storage and use.
