i bought the RMB-53 with stainless steel valve. I would recomend the B series over the A series, with the C series being the least restrictive, and most expensive. the 53 does up to 100 scfm.

I also got the RMB-53, but without a valve. It's a good compromise between price and performance. The RMA's are a bit small and restrictive, and the RMC's are too expensive. As for the flowrate, I'm guessing you did in fact mean LPH as 500-3000 LPM would suck your face off if you got anywhere near it. Also, the RMB-53 does 10-100 SCFH, not SCFM. Here's a calculator.
