Get a co2 purge kit, you already have nitrous so you're not really faking the funk. I am sure you love purging to show off, so purge the co2, much cheaper and you won't waste any of your nitrous, lol.

Well you figure a bottle is good for a minute of use down the strip. So you have a good amount of time to make a scene before you run your bottle too low.

Any paintball shop can fill you. Check out our forum sponsors. They range from $100 to $350.

Also, if you look at the size of the jetts, the hole, they are fairly small compared to the purge tube outlet, so I would think that you would purge more than you would actually use in a shot.

Why would you want to purge a whole bottle? Sounds retarded, ricer, and wasteful to show off by purging an entire bottle of nitrous. Nitrous isn't intended to show off, it's intended to go faster.

haha do wat ever you want with this post, ur not goin to hurt my feelings. i never said i was goin to purge an entire bottle. i just wondered how many times it could be purged before its to empty to use. i wont be using nitrous on the street but it is fun to scare little ricers on the street, then i refill it and use it at the track.

How much does it cost to get a bottle like that filled with co2?
When I played paintball it was like $3 for a 20oz. tank

Honestly OP just get you a second nitrous bottle if you really think you cant contain yourself. lol!

Nitrous around me is $4.95 a pound! No way I would waste a bottle on the atmosphere!

Just playing around on the street I usually get a good 10 - 12 "shots" (by no means is a "shot" a full run through the gears -- I usually only have a shot to run through a gear or two before I run into traffic or hit a speed that's inapproriate for the surroundings) out of a 10 lb bottle and I purge the line after I finish playing around.

I guess you could probably purge it 6 - 8 times and give a pretty good show.

Being that I routinely waste nitrous on a daily basis...I'd put another vote in for the CO2 dummy systems.
