FYI The worst thing you can do with regulars is leave them set and
simply turn off the high pressure valve on the tank. When you turn on
the tank with the pressures already set the little regulator valve is
hammered closed with such force that it damages the seat.
Smith are good quality.

Randy, could you please expand on this statement with the correct procedure
to use. I never realized that about shutting down the tanks.
