getting up to temp depends on how much n2o is in the tank. More n2o, takes longer. ambient temps are an obvious variable.
keeping it at temp depends on how much/often you're shooting. As you shoot, it 1) reduces the amount in the tank and 2) chills the tank because of the moving gas.

Doesn't help much, does it.
