This is the first that I've heard of a shortage, so thanks for the heads up. I haven't filled my 120+ cf tank since I bought it 3 years ago! I have setups for propane & acetylene, typically use the propane for cutting and switch to acetylene for brazing.
Same regulators, hoses; just a different tip on my end. Works great for my use.
Got the 100lb propane tank for free, was $85 to fill locally last summer. Haven't used 1/4 of the tank with all my cutting. I know I'll need to recert the tank before getting it refilled, it expires in August this year!
Hmm, maybe will consider refilling the acetylene tank next time I've got it out just to be safe. Am planning to do some body work to my M101 to get a wider bed at the wheel wells and will need the torches....
Thanks for the heads up on this "shortage"
