Default Ways to know you're out of spray?

What are some ways I can use to figure out if I still have n20 in the bottle or not? It still has pressure but when I open the nozzle without the line it doesn't feel like n20 coming out anymore it just feels like high pressure air....

Weigh it. The weights of the full and empty cylinder should be on the bottle sticker. Anything around 3 lbs left and it's done

This much less than 3-4 in a 10lb is done for.

You might be able to squeek some out of a 15lb bottle at 5lbs full, but I doubt it.

Watched a buddy run out last saturday in a 15lb bottle that weighed 6.5lbs before the run. He uses 1.3lbs a pass.

Sounds like it is time to own 2-3 bottles(that are filled) and rotate them based on usage.

I always bring at least 2 bottles to the track. If I have my 15lb I have only brought it once, but with the amount of passes I am trying to get in now a night I really need to bring two.
