Amazon sells the whole outfit to refill them, even includes a stand to put your big tank on at the correct angle. That said, how much money are you gonna save ? In the overall picture of deer hunting costs, it’s like peeing in the ocean.
I've refilled mine many times with no issues. I initially bought a hose and adaptor for a 20# one and it didn't flow correctly. I use it for a heater buddy.

This is how I do it. Best way I found so far. It does save money. But, what I found is it really saves time. A lot of places I normally buy the 1 lb cylinders were out of them this season.

I also use a digital food scale to weigh the tank once refilled to make sure that's it pretty close to what it would be new off the shelf (~29.2 - 29.5 oz.).
I did have a couple that I overfilled one time, and then they sat in the garage and got hot, so they ended up bulging pretty good. I bled some of the excess out and used them without issue, but I would not refill those.
Well I have been considering this for a while now, and seems consensus is that its ok. The 1 person to mention not ok gave no specifics as to why, and I can understand why Coleman would also strongly suggest not to refill since they need to sell more. Going to get the converter from Amazon and start re-filling mine. Purely for the time savings not for the financial savings.
