Has anyone heard about this bottle heater?
I currently need a bottle heater, and I'm leaning heavily towards a pressure actuated heater. I found this one on ebay (it's essentially a modified NOS heater), and the price isn't bad at all. I just wanted to know if anyone has ever known someone using it or heard any remarks.

With the temperature based heaters, they'll work regardless if there is nitrous in the lines or not. Your bottle can be warmed and ready at all times (like mine ), and if you don't spray, you won't be wasting any nitrous. Just something to think about.

There must be nitrous in the line(s) for it to maintain proper pressure. What if you don't end up spraying? Then you'll be wasting that nitrous that's stuck in the line(s). It may not be a great amount, but that's just a lil' pet peeve of mine.

This is what I was telling you the other day hype. Nothing wrong with the heater itself, just the thermostat is a little diff. Calsonic makes a good point to consider.

On a final note, do you guys purge your line after you close your bottle so the line is clear while the car isn't being used?

Anyway, you can just leave the nitrous in the line. It won't do any harm but it will eventually dissipate. I'm not running my fuel pressure saftey switch at this moment, so I just close the remote opener, and spray what's left in the line. No real harm done; car will just run rich for a lil' bit.

I was looking at dynotune products a while back. Before I decided to go to boost I was going to purchase their purge kit and electric pressure guage.
Seems like high quality stuff for a reasonable price.
