Its better then propane, according to BLB 10% velocity increase compared to propane I think, Something to do with the rapid combustion or something like that :?

Just wondering, do you need a regulator on the meter or not? How do you get the right pressure? I really don't want to buy a reg online, but that's the only choice, unless there's an easier way. I was thinking of just using a blowgun as one of the ball valves, to let propane into the meter slowly, so I could stop letting propane into the meter when it was at the right pressure.
