LP pressure at convenience quick connect

Can anyone tell me the LP pressure at the quick disconnect port? I may want to use an external appliance which does not have a local regulator. I don't have a convenient way to measure so please reply if known.
Thanks!

It's going to be after the regulator on the AS so it'll be about 12"water.

It should be at 11 inches dynamic and about 13 - 14 static pressure, just like the rest of the system.

I think it depends on where the port is located. I'm used to seeing an extra connection at the Bottle which is high pressure and my BBQ has the regulator. Not everything runs at 11" WC pressure. If th OP can see the hose(s) run from the bottles to the regulator without a branched connection to the convenience port than it may well be low pressure.

We are talking about the quick disconnect on the Interstate vans. They are definitely low pressure after the regulator as is everything else in the LP system of the Interstates.

If it's downstream of the main regulator it should be at 11-inches of water-column, equal to about 1/2 psi. (.5 psi)
