How do you clear out the carbon build up? Is there a purge capability that will blow it out?

Would there be a way to add a clear window slit for the fuel levels?

How do we prime it when if or when it runs out of fuel? If we lose prime how can we see the air trapped in the black fuel line? How well does that fuel cap seal when going from sea level to 6000’? Fuel level sight glass integrated on one end would be my pick for a fuel gauge.

I like the idea of a clear slit window to see the fuel level. Will there be a power adapter so I can use it in my garage?

Been waiting a long time for this. I really like the thought that went in to this heater and that it was refined for the LP system. Here’s to less cold feet!

As long as the tank on the inside is already clear, a very simple “cut out“ on the exterior aluminum housing would allow the user to essentially view the tank level visually. You could further add clarity by adding “tick marks“ or some sort of graphic on the side of the exterior housing. Similar to the photo attached. This seems like an incredibly simple approach, but again would require the actual fuel tank to be clear. As well as the tank to be close enough to the sheet metal housing.
