I agree it is all too silly. Another case where the people who invent these things have never gone RVing.

if your talking about a MH mounted tank, what happens if you fill it when you are slightly off level? I don't know how these tanks are constructed with the spit valve etc. but if how do they accomidate (or lack theroff) if your filled off level? that might account for the difference.
The dip tube for the fixed liquid level gauge "spit" valve is located at the center of the tank. Being off level has virtually no effect on the amount it takes to fill the tank.

It doesn't come out right that 26 litres is half a tank, so I will have to get more info next time it is "filled" and confirm the tank's gauge too.
The existing 1/2 or 50% plus an addition 30% = 80%, ie 26 litres represents ~1/3 of a tank or 30%.

23.2 gallons would be the water capacity. LPG capacity is about 80% of that, allowing for headspace. Thus, when properly filled, it would hold just about exactly 70 liters of LPG, or around 75 pounds, or the equivalent of two and a half 30 lb bottles.
