I'm going to switch to "Chemtame" I believe it is called.
They're workin with their customers through this, so I can exchange my acetelyne tank for a Chemtame. Just pay for the fill. Chemtame is slightly more expensive; however, with the shortage, Acetelyne may prove to be more expensive. The additional benefit, same size tank and the Chemtame will give me about 4.3 times the use of the same size Acetelyne. Its actually much cheaper.
They took me in the back, and let me use a "test setup" they have, short lesson to learn how to adjust flame, a bit different than Acetelyne. I was impressed when I cut through a 1" steel plate they had there. Cleaner cut than Acetelyne for me.
To do it right, I have to change my hoses, around $30 for 25' set, and my tip HAS to be changed. I may switch permanent to this Chemtame, we'll see.
Just trying to give a heads up. Might be a long while before Acetelyne is readily available at a decent cost.
