You can screw a regular fuel gas regulator (propane or acetylene) into the BBQ grill propane tanks and use them. Acetylene regulators are usually cheaper and I think better tuned for lampworking because the gauge for line output usually maxes out at 30 psi since most acetylene work is done in the 5 psi to 10 psi range. This means they are easier to set low pressures on than propane gauges that are often up to 100 psi.
