Get the "torch" mounted ones, not the "regulator" mounted ones - the difference is where the pressure lock side is located - on regulator mounted ones, the pressurized side is mounted to the regulator, on the torch mounted ones, the pressurized size is mounted to your hose end.

The pressurized side (female) has a slide release that pulls back towards the body and releases the male connector.

These are an excellent item to have at any time.

To connect, push the male side into the female side until you hear a "click". You may have to slightly pull back on the slide if you don't have a lot of hand/wrist strength.
