Bottle pressure is the key to a well operating nitrous system.
My favorite is the 860 heater.

DynoTune black heater here, used it a bunch this week in 40-50 degree weather here in New England, working great .

I like the 860 Performance one also, I may put one of those in my 73 Charger, I like the heater/bracket idea, one less thing to hook up when you put the bottle in.

 

Our Revolution Bottle Heater wraps all the way around the bottle leaving no open voids. More info:

hsw heater my bottle gets to 1000 psi in seconds and dosent drain my battery while doing so

 

Zex automatic. I've only had it for about 3 weeks and so far it's worked fine. I didn't have to put more sensors on the line either. I wanted to be able to heat the bottle without the valve being open (for the pressure sensor). I have a remote bottle opener and a bottle opener noid. When it's off, it's off. If one of my noids fail, there's a second noid AND the valve opener. I like backup systems.
Over the last 3 weeks, the car has been in temps from 53 deg. F. to 93 deg F and the bottle has stayed at 900. It's currently about 2/3 full.

 

I ordered a 860

 

Good choice! Works very well and the built in bracket is awesome.

mmhmmm got that one!

 

+1

Both are great Heaters.

 

+1 for the dynotune heater. 99 bucks is a great deal.

 

I chose the NX standard heater for it's amp draw, running two heaters to heat up two 15lb bottles, and this takes some amperage. The NX is 240watts, and the other wrap arounds are 300watts. IIRC, the 860 is 280watt? Something to keep in mind, as a dead battery at the drags is no fun. Say, you want your motor to cool down, and your fan is running then you need to turn your b/heater, well it can take no time to drain a questionable battery, and even a good one. I also choose to heat mine manually, as the automatic transducers never keep pressure where I want it, and have used several of them. Just some things to think about.

I have the 860 heater/bracket and I really like it because All I have to do is hook the bottle to the bracket and the bracket is already the heater so I'm good to go!

Its really easy to deal with. I put the bottle on like a normal bracket and turn on the heater. It heats the bottle pretty fast too! I went from 700 psi to 1200psi in like 30 minutes. Not to bad if you ask me.

 

Robert time to purchase some more Dynotune products The higher wattage means the bottle warms that much faster. Yes the draw is higher but for a shorter period of time. You need to try a Dynotune pressure transducer - set it to the pressure you like when it drops approx 50 psi it kicks on - back to temp - it shuts off. The NX one, correct me if I am wrong has no adjustment, when it gets to 1050 it shuts off, then it waits till it drops 150PSI before it kicks back on. Just my thoughts..

Thank you everyone for your thoughts...
it will help me in my purchase..

 

Yea, the 300 watters do heat faster, however, get 2 of those going and the coolant fan(s) running and with the engine running, you can watch your voltage go down visually, ask how I know. OK, it does it with the dual 240watters, so the 300's would be even that much more demanding. I allmost mentioned the DynoTune transducer, as that's one I haven't tried, and I could live with a 50psi variation. Actually I figured this out once before, the 300watters will heat the same bottle up in 80% of the time it takes the 240watter.
