Manual propane tank switch

I am looking for a manual propane tank switch. I have a setup that has a built in regulator that I don’t want to remove so I don’t want the built in regulator that comes with an auto switchover setup. Do these exist anymore? Any links to where I can get one?
Thanks!

Built in regulator??

What is it on/used for?

There are manual changeover regulators and auto changeover regs

Maybe something like this

If you don't want the auto change over feature, just leave one tank turned off and turn it off when you want or need to.

You can make you auto change over valve manual. Point the valve to the tank you want to use. Turn off the valve on the tank you don't want to use. When the selected tank runs out of propane you will need to manually turn on the valve on the other tank. If you want you can also turn the selector to the new tank.

It is actually for a pizza oven with a European (Italian) regulator so don’t want a second regulator upstream which is why I don’t want an automatic switch as they all have integral regulators. This looks perfect, thank you!

That's pretty cool. A pizza oven in an Airstream.

I actually have two that I travel with (1 at a time)
One (and my personal favorite) is a Roccbox by Gozney

The other is an Ooni Pro

But the question is for my home pizza oven. I just knew that the RV community would have my answer!

That really looks like an Arizona back yard in the picture.

Absolutely (who doesn’t ). However in an oven that size you can do a lot more than just pizza. You can cook pizza at night and it will still be over 300 degrees in the am so you can do breakfast rolls, breakfast casseroles, cinnamon rolls, etc.
You can also do roasts, lasagne, roast veggies…bake bread. They are amazing
