The Camco Automatic Changeover 2-Stage Propane Regulator for Dual Propane Tanks # CAM59005 will allow you to use the MB Sturgis Propane Hose w/ Back Check - Type 1 x 1/4" MPT - 30" # 100473-30-MBS to connect your second propane tank to the one mounted on your RV.

If you RV tank is not a standard Type 1, then let me know and we can look for other options.

There is not a changeover regulator that is horizontal, so a photo of your current system may help for me to see what our options are.

Thanks for the picture. I see you have an ASME tank not another 5 gallon tank like a travel trailer would have. It sounds like you simply want to connect your grill to your motorhome. For your application, the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting w/ Hose for POL Valve - 2 Model 250 Quick Disconnect Ports # 103538-MBS will work and use a hose like # 103608 for your grill. We don't have any hoses that fit a 11/16 inner as you stated, as that is not a common size. Most grills use the 1-20 fitting. Another option I recommend the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Flow T-Fitting w/ Hose for POL Valve - Disposable Cylinder Port # 103608.
