Garland,
It would probably work, but it is hard to tell what comes with it. You can get a regulator with a bubble counter and needle valve attached (can't tell if this has either?) for just a few dollars more, and you will know it is ready to go.
A lot of people use the Milwaukee MA957 regulator which comes with everything I mentioned above, and you will have peace of mind knowing it is setup and ready to use with your aquarium. Plus, it is new and comes with a warranty. The one you linked has no real guarantee. You can pick one up on Ebay for $97 shipped.

Keep in mind, you will need to buy a Co2 tank as well, which will set you back 50-150 bucks depending on size.
Also, you will need to consider a method for diffusing the CO2 into the water. The bubble ladder you are using is great for a DIY system, but won't be very efficient for what you can do with a pressurized system.
Just curious, why the change from DIY? I hope nothing went wrong with my old system that you are running?

no everything is fine with it I just cant be there all the time (my g/f's aquarium) and I would like to change a tank rather than a yeast change.
