Should I get a DIN or yoke regulator?
The easiest way to determine which kind of regulator you have is to look for an o-ring in the regulator. If there is an o-ring in the part of the regulator that attaches to the tank, you have a DIN regulator. If there is no o-ring visible on the regulator, but your tank has an o-ring, then you have a yoke regulator.
