but wouldn't you gas yourself with the fumes?

 

only if you use a lot ln2 in a small room without ventilation

 

between Christmas and New Year's we used 500L LN2 at the end there was so little oxygen that people could not smoke but it was no problem to breathe

Anyone from the Cincinnati, OH area know where to get LN2 for cheaper than $5 per liter. Only place i can find is Airgas for $5 per liter.....

 

I'm in Louisville and Airgas gives it to me for $1/L. Tell them that you use it for a hobby and you won't buy often but if they won't sell it to you for cheaper, you won't buy it from them at all.

Basically what I did. Played up the geek part of things, and that it was for non-commercial use.

You need to learn efficiency on LN2 benching with the prices of our country :D

Some people have made bad jokes about my comments of LN2 usage, but think about the prices:

 

Best offer to fill my 34L dewar is 133€ :D

If you use 2 of those in 1 month, you will need to pay ~3200€ / year. Pick 4 of those in a month and pay ~6400€.

With list price 4 pickups in month would cost 13 000€/year.

 

So keep joking about my 20liter LN2 results and welcome to Finland :D
