with the cost of everything going up lately, I figured I'd drop some budget info for everyone. find a steel tube or box big enough to set your bottle in. try 10" steel ac duct, steel pipe, even a trash can or leftover industrial waste. if you have a welder and don't mind a little fab work build your own. get a 110v small water heater element AND THERMOSTAT. once you have the container and element put the element as low in the tank as possible, if your tank is small use a grate or extruded metal to protect the element from getting damaged. set the thermostatfor 125 degrees to start. set bottle in and fill with water to find fill level at the track and mark. always cover the element with water before plugging it in and don't dump it out until its fairly cooled off. this is just to protect from burnig out the element. wiring is basic 110v circuit.
build a water tank to heat no2 bottles.
