so on a 200 shot you guys are averaging around 3-4 full 1/4 passes, so in theory a 100-125 shot should see anywhere from 7-9 1/4 passes?

I wouldn't count on that, it's not exactly linear.

OK, I got it now on open & close.
My gauges are built into the neck, so I don't have to use a down the line gauge.
I do use a dash gauge right before staging to set the pressure,
but that because with a funny car cage, I can't see the bottles when strapped in.
Just be careful, I have never trusted pressure on the solenoid, and every time you start the car, I would cringe.

I've been running a 100 for 4 years and I get 7 passes out of a 10 lb bottle.

If you can keep the bottle warm, it will last 4 passes. It also depends on how it was filled too. I always flip my heater on when I stage, turn it off when I get my ticket, keeps a little heat in going down the track while spraying. Keeping the bottle the sameish temp as much as possible without jacking up the pressure seems to do the best, for me at least.

And you CAN get 7-8 1/8 passes on one if yoiu stretch it, I did it the other night with one of my bottles, but then borrrowed a friends "fresh" bottle and it faded out by the 5th run. Gota watch who fills it and how. Freeze you bottle before it gets filled everytime, and it wont fade out on you after a few passes

How many passes are you guys getting before you have to refill your nano bottles? Is the trade off of having to refill the nitrous bottle less but instead having to fill the nano nitrous worth it?

The NANO system is designed to be a 1 to 1 ratio with your nitrous bottle. The NANO bottle is filled with compressed air or nitrogen from local scuba, paintball, and welding supply stores. This depends on what is available in your area. We have seen fill prices of the NANO bottle from 2-8$. If you need more info or would like a catalog let me know.

So in a nut shell when the nitrous bottle is empty the nano bottle is empty but it's only about $8 to fill the nano nitrous and you get about 3-4 more runs with a moderate sized pill. I think nano kit may be in my future if that's the case
