Default 65 gal propane tank: How full?

OK I'm an idiot. After looking at the web site for the propane company, I
realized the gauge doesn't read in PSI, it is a float gauge that reads in %
full. So the tank has about 18% of 65 gallons, or about 12 gallons. Should
be enough to get through the weekend, anyway ;-)


While most propane tank guages read %, it's not an absolute. Mine
reads gallons. Also most guages are inaccurate, giving a relatively
ballbark reading.
