Default N2o Bottle Heaters

Wondering how long a bottle heater takes to get the bottle up to pressure. I was thinking in regards to a 10lb bottle.

Thanks.

on mine [NX 10 lb.] it takes 30-45 minutes in the winter. obviously in the summer it's faster. hell, on my black car I have to purge a little pressure off if it's been sitting outside in the summer.

I should add that my bottle is in the trunk & is separated from the cabin by a partition. an "inside" bottle should heat up faster.

Bottle warmers are dated technology. The Nano systems are far superior. You get every ounce from your bottle, at a constant pressure. No waiting for the bottle to heat up. Arm system, purge, spray, watch ricers sheit themselves!
That's why I didn't put a bottle warmer on Sneaks. Waiting for the golf lesson season to kick into full gear for some extra funds.........

is that a "push" system? sounds good in theory. probably would help you guys in the frozen north. down here I get hellacious pressure 9 months out of the year.

I would want the Nano if I put a system in my car. Constant pressure and it looks snazzy! The cost is an issue but it sure beats a heater.
