Portable E Tanks
Portable smaller units called
E tanks are used for transport. A key is required to turn
the tank on and off. The portable tanks must be replaced when
empty. Therefore, the family must plan ahead for trips outside
of the home. Portable E tanks may be used for backup in case
of power failure.
