Refill Disposable Propane Tank from a Standard BBQ Cylinder

Step 6Weight Empty Cylinders

Weight Empty Cylinders
Weight the empty cylinders.
I give you my result after I weighted about 24 tanks :

Type #1 With plastic Base (Coleman Type)
Average empty weight : 384g
This mean a 100% full tank will weight 849g (384g tare weight + 465g of propane)

Type #2 With metal Base
Average empty weight : 417g
This mean a 100% full tank will weight 882g (417g tare weight + 465g of propane)

Please check your math. I believe 417g tare weight + 465g Propane weight adds up to 882g not 849g
