Customer (PF13CL160):

you have a new generation regulator, please inform me what the advantages are.

Outdoorstirfry:

A PF13L160 will go with a regulator with an ACME Type I (QCC) connector.   An ACME type I (QCC) connector makes use of the outside threads on a 20lbs propane tank valve.   Your stove is a PF13CL160.   In order to the stove to be configurable (usable) for both 20lbs propane tank and a 1lb propane bottle, the connector on the regulator has to be a POL type.   A POL type connector makes use of the internal threads inside a 20lbs propane tank valve.    Both PF13L160 and PF13CL160 stove performances should be identical.
