low price gas regulator
I have been looking for a hydrogen regulator and I came across Chris Bradley's discussion with Jamie Edwards about gas regulators he said "Any all-brass regulator should be fine with hydrogen, though you can't always tell what's inside it. But personally I'd be quite happy with something like : http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-CO2-ARGON-M ... 25790888fc. Was he correct would this be a good regulator for hydrogen?

Re: low price gas regulator
This would be fine for a regulator. All none hydrogen regulators should have a small reservoir in the line that can be filled at about 2-5psi. once filled close the tank valve to the regulator so that it will not leak hydrogen from the tank. This is good practice even with a hydrogen rated regulator. Use the gas in the resrvoir for your fusor experiments.
I use a small CO2 cartridge silver soldered into my gas line after the regulator prior to the needle valve. I pump in 1-2 PSI from my oxygen regulator.
