Yes, The Factory designed the system with a 30psi regulator on the driver's side. It in turn

Shouldn’t a tank be pigtailed straight to the switching regulator?
Only if it was set up like a TT. Or designed that way with both tanks next to each other
in one compartment.


I’d think that if you’re feeding a regulated tank to the auto-switching regulator that the auto-switch would think that the regulated tank is (near) empty and switch over to the other side.

And I don’t know how your system would react if you had two regulators in series. If it’s anything like plugging a regulated Weber Baby-Q into the regulated quick-connect, it’d be pretty pathetic.
It's NOT the same. Quite a different critter altogether.
Thanks for your intrest in my problem. I hope that I didn't come across as condensending. Not my intent.
