Bottle pressure wont go up

[suprakid366]

Well this is pretty much the 2nd fill up i have on my bottle, and it has a normal bottle heater that does its job, i mean after a while the warmer gets really really hot. But ill leave it on the bottle for like 20 mins at least and the pressure only goes up by like 100psi. It would raise more than this when i got it filled which was quite recently. I mean i have sprayed quite a bit since the fill up but it shouldnt be low. Anyone have any ideas? Is there a better way to tell how much nitrous is left besides the gauge? I took it in last time and it had like 3 lbs left, its a 10lb bottle.

what's the preasure reading when the above problem is current?

weigh your bottle b4 and after.Dont just assume just cuz you sprayed a few times you should have some left.

[suprakid366]

it wouldnt go above 600psi. But neways i took it in to get filled and there was only air in it, so i used it all, my bad lol.

Yes....by weighing it.

Also, weigh it before and after the fill. It should be printed on the specs on the bottle so you know what 10lbs of nitrous will make the entire bottle weigh. Also, when you fill it, throw it in a walk-in cooler before hand. Get that thing nice and cold. I loved the bottle response when I first filled it. At 3lbs, even a heater wouldn't make it as effective.

wrap a blanket around it as well if it's a cold day to keep the heat from escaping.

Ya when we get bottles filled here, they are frozen sometimes for a day. We can squeeze as much as 13lbs in one lol.
