as long as you have a pressure gauge, you should be ok either way.
if the temperature controlled one is giving you consistent pressures, don't worry about going to pressure controlled.

another vote for pressure controlled heaters. what happens when your temp controlled heater is left on long enough to where the burst disk goes, evacuating over 1000 psi? If you have a blow down tube it wouldn't be bad, but if the n2o ever hits you it wouldn't be good. That is my only concern with temp controlled heaters, but then again failures like that are few and far between.

yeah, thats true! i'll be sure to pick up a pressure regulated one then! i'd like to get the gen x 2 upgrade kit for the NX, but i don't need some of the things, i suppose i could just sell them...

try looking on ebay for the pressure controlled heater. there is a user house of power, that I get my stuff from. Some people have bought parts directly from NX. Also try PM'ing Afterhourz, he may be able to get some parts for you too.

I LOVE the pressure controlled bottle warmer... definately well worth it.. have mine set at 1050 .... and has worked out great... Recommended... perfect with the digital guage as well.. and reasonablly priced.. actually mine was cheaper than the others that are out there.
