The extend a stay adapter needs to go *before* the
regulator.  Between the tank and the regulator would be another way
to say it.  Otherwise you will be getting tank pressure to the stove
and fridge, which they are not rated for.  the regulator reduces the
pressure to about 1 psi.  Tank pressure varies with temperatures and
it generally about 200 psi, iirc.  This would be a dangerous mistake!
