Loud hollow sound when bottle goes empty...

I've had my zex kit install for alittle over a month and a half and I believe my nitrous bottle is empty.
I was wondering if while spraying it made a louder "hollow" noise when the bottle is empty.? Mine did. I weighed it 2 days ago and it was at 15lbs, the bottle says 14lbs is empty.

Time for a refill. The most accurate way to measure it is by weight. Since you only have a pound left at most it is time for a refill.

At $35/refill, I'm definitely using every little drop in the bottle.

The last few sprays on a bottle kinda suck, I think the siphone tube starts to push air through the lines.

All that they are going to do is add more to it, so instead of having to fill up 10lbs the shop should only have to put in 9 lbs. Have the shop weigh it before and after. Don't let yourself get screwed.
