Is there a benefit to this kind of regulator compared to the basic in- line one, other than you can adjust the psi? What I am interested in is more volume at 45psi.Valterra AdjustableIn the description..."has a full-flow design". Does it really allow more water through at 45psi?In the past I've used a basic "high flow" regulator, but it's pre-set to 50-55psi instead of 40-50. It went up to 60psi during use! I really want to keep the water pressure at 45, but have increased volume.The reviews are mixed. Read one that wrote it has "great volume", but another that just wrote "decent flow".

The Valterra you have listed, Camco, Renator or Watts will all give you higher flow at 45 psi. Don't be afraid to go to 50 or 55. The cheap ones reduce flow while trying to reduce pressure. I have the Watts 263A from the Rv Water Filter Store and like it but others have had good luck with the Valterra or Renator for half the price. Add an Oxygenics shower head and you will think you are at home.

I can’t get by NOT hooking up city water because of the damage that may occur from a bursting water line or fitting. That’s why God made fresh water tanks...to avoid bursting.... And to leave your campsite and not turn off the city water? Foolish!

the inline non adjustables will fail after a while. it might be one year it might be three years but they will fail on you, just when you are taking your morning shower, never fails. this is why the we went to the adjustable regulator.

I’ve been wondering the same thing as we are going to be moving to a spot that has pretty good pressure but I hate the flow through our cheap regulator.

Been using the same Camco "Hi flow" for more than 10 years and it still regulates perfectly.$10.
