Re: SmileyTools Argon regulator
Mine is threaded SAE. No problems, love having a ball valve one. Main dial reads 4500psi, but it remains to be seen what it can operate too. Reads to 25l/m.
Works like a charm. I love it. & I love my airgas supplier. My new tank was filled to 3400psi. That's getting your money's worth!

Airgas sux big time. They rip you off big time. They charge almost $1 a cube here in LA for argon unless you're on their nuts and buy a grip each month.
Praxair FTW. $0.40 a cube the first time I bought gas, after that only $0.20 a cube.

Airgas here charges $20 even to fill my 180cu^ft tank, $25-27 to fill a 220cu^ft.

Hey I'm just telling you my experience with them. Reguardless of where you live. The price difference is an issue.
The distribution center is not close. Depending on the time of day, it could take me an hour an a half to get there. Local place is only 6-10min.
