Wait, am I missing something?
HP "pushes through" a lot of air, LP pushes through a very low flow of air, no?
If my LP port fails it would be equivalent to having a free flowing regulator, which leaves me a lot of time to empty a tank.
But HP should be much faster to empty the tank no? What you describe seems to be the opposite.
Nope, the other way around: If a LP hose ruptures, it will empty a full tank in around 2 minutes when a HP hose rupture will take 15 - 20 minutes for the air to drain from a full tank (80cuft).
