Will hook up to any normal LP tank such as the 20 # LP tank. Any thing smaller than this would be sort of a joke. It is a high end 500,000 BTU torch and the difference is like the MPG on a lawn mower engine and a big block chevy hot rod.

YES comes with a nice handy very long hose. Unlike so many products sold with 24" hoses and 12 inch electric cords. Their not saving production dollars on the hose. The connection with built in regulator works on any std LP tank with out the use of a expensive gas regulator. Recommend do not open LP tank wide open seems to work better that way.

Do I need to use a regulator in order to hook up the IdealGas Propane Torch Kit - 500,000 BTU, Model# 171726 directly to a 20 pound propane tank?

There is a small adjustment knob on the torch that allows it to be used without a regulator. Be aware that a small adjustment of this valve goes a long way.

The torch would not require a regulator. It has a control on the top of the handle to control the flame.
