A propane tank is a drainable item that can be used up to 16 times.

Usage

Fuel

Propane tanks are used as a fuel in propane barbecues and refill a propane torch. Starting with 41.78, refilling a torch consumes 1/16 of a propane tank - even if the torch was not completely empty.

Refilling

The propane torch uses some stored propane gas each time it's used, with a maximum of 10 units. A propane torch can be refilled if the player has a propane tank, then by right-clicking either the propane torch or propane tank, then selecting "Refill Blow Torch".

Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
