Im pissed..."lost" 200lb of Nitrous

Our lab manager just came up to me and said "you know...last week we had our gas supplier just take away (for free) a full bottle of Nitrous that has been sitting around here for ages...could you have used that?"

I would have loved to have that 200lb bottle sitting in my garage for refills!

it doesn't matter which type it was does it? I thought the auto stuff just had something in it to keep people from trying to get high off it.

I thought the auto stuff has sulfur in it so people won't try to get high. The medical grade stuff is pure nitrous oxide

Would the medical grade stuff be better since it's pure?

no real difference in ppm of medical or industrial. Yes they do add sulfur to industrial use.
I asked cuz I never heard of a 200# cylinder, unless your going off the full weight of cylinder. Normally its a 58 or 63 #.
