    I have been taught that acetylene becomes explosive at 15 PSI and
    you should never run the pressure that high. All the literature I
    have seen on the Little Torch show recommended pressures to be in the
    5-6 lbs and lower range. If you have to crank it up that high you
    would be better served with a bigger torch.
