Fire! Burners and Regs.

So I bought this new for $25

and I'm buying the 21 jet tommorrow for a few $ more.

My question is will I need one of these:

More beer says this on a comparable burner:
These burners are not for use on portable propane tanks, they are for use with large propane tanks with regulators that typically feed a rural homes where natural gas is not offered..

One of the guys in my club spoke with some local propane people that said w/o the Low Pressure Reg the tank would freeze.

I just want to know if any of you are running burners like this, how you've got them set up, and how fast you're burning through tanks.

I'm running 3 of the H209 series burners on my stand, and have them connected thru a low pressure reg, like the one pictured. I'm running off of regular grill sized propane tanks. I normally run the HLT and MT at the same time, although not full blast.....and when it comes time for the boil, I'm running one burner.....and I can do about 3-4 brew sessions (at least) on a single tank. I have had all 3 burners running at the same time when I tested out the system, and seemed to work fine, although I didn't run it for a full session.

I have three of the Burner - 92,000 BTU for Low Pressure Propane
(H212) from more beer. I use the same regulator you have posted (H212A) also from more beer and I run them with portable LP tanks from my BBQ grill and everything works just fine.
