    I recently had my propane provider take back their tank, since they were charging me a 75/year rental fee. I did not expect to loose my regulator and now have a 20lb tank full of propane that is not connected to the line. Anybody know what specs I need to use in sizing/choosing the proper regulator? The application is LP, 1/2" line, non-pilot single appliance (stove).

    All propane appliances run on the same pressure. Any propane regulator that will attach to your tank should work.

    Ran the typical regulator from a grill and it worked fine. Thanks!
