Have a link? a pressure regulator isn't cheap. (even a Starbucks cup of java is cheaper) A ball or needle valve is not a pressure regulating device, its a flow control.
But these little vane pumps don't need that regulation, they kinda self regulate. (hell, just a cheap easy version is to just give it more 'head'.)
