I saw the solenoid remote bottle control setup and I am now interested in mounting my bottle in the spare tire compartment.
How well do they work? Can I leave my nitrous bottle open at all times with one of these and never have to go back to open it? Remote bottle openers seem to be way over priced.

Im sure u can leave it open while cruising but i woul close the bottle when the car isnt in use just for safety...afterall its still just a solenoid and im sure to much pressure for to long will eventually affect its ability to work....from what i read they are a little more reliable than the regular bottle openers.

I prefer the ones that open the ****, NOS brand is my favorite. I've never seen one of those that doesn't work, and I've never seen a used solenoid style opener that did work.
I would say they are expensive but are well worth the money, pm me if you are seriously looking to buy and we will see how good of a deal I can make you
I can get you either style, and from several different companies.

I agree with Scoggin, the solenoid openers are useless as they are only recommended as a temporary open/close valve. In other words, you still have to manually open or shutoff the bottle before and after driving because the solenoid isn't designed to hold the system pressure for long periods of time. So if you have your bottles mounted in the trunk this is a complete waste of time... get the motor operated valve opener.

I hear nothing but good things about the NOS bottle opener, It comes with a controller box that shuts off the motor when it senses that the valve is closed. The NX bottle opener on the other hand I hear from several people that you have to keep tightening the clutch frequently. Ive also had this problem with mine.
