Nitrous fills...

So my dad decided to start selling nitrous kits for snowmobiles and atv's as well as get a fill station . The fill station was around a grand for the pump and a digi scale.

For those who are wondering hard cost on nitrous is $116 to fill a 65 lb bottle + $7.50 to rent the bottle. Granted this will vary from area to area, these prices are in Idaho. I can't wait, at $2 a pound I might spray a little more often

another thing to note is that shops don't make that much money on fills. The station is pretty spendy and you lose some n2o in the lines after you finish filling a bottle. I've been dry for 3 months now waiting for the shop to get the fill station, I think I'll have to "test" the station out with my bottle

That is still almost a 50% markup once the fill station is paid for.

Good to know the base price. My guy in Baltimore charges $2.50/lb. He's the cheapest around as everyone else is 3.50 or more.
