Also, is it safe and practical to transport a 100 lb tank? I’m reading that this weighs 170 lbs when full and should only be transported upright. So you’d need a pickup truck and a way to keep it secure. And 2+ strong people on both ends of the trip to load and unload.

Propane has an indefinite shelflife. You might want to go with 40 pound bottles of propane. These are the type you would see on the front of a travel trailer. Three or four of these would be easier to move around and transport.
