You should just get Karmakazi's, he'll make you a lid.

I don't see any reason not to get it, if you need a dewar this one is probably perfect. It's around 30-35L, so it's enough for a good session for some hours. I just made a lid myself, ln2 stores really well without lid too. But a LID is nice for transportation:)

I had my thermos filled with ln2 over the night without a cap on, still there was more than 50% of the ln2 left.:D

MaadDaawg 03-10-2010 02:58 AM

nice price, but that looks a little scary to me :scared: Worse case is you lose $250 bucks, best case is you get a hell of a good deal if the seals are intact.

I know my 35 is a bitch to carry from the car, up 8 steps and into the house lol thankfully it came with a trolly which helps part of the distance :D

Buckeye 03-10-2010 03:31 AM

Yeah my 50L weighs in at 150lbs when full. I need help getting it out of the car safely as I do not want to drop it LOL.

It has a roller stand so after that its np.

I am glad it has a pressure top as tipping a 50L to fill a thermo is not something I would want to do. A 35L migth be better for tipping, I dont know.

Splave 03-10-2010 03:46 AM

Bunch of girls in this thread LOL I carry my 50l 50 yards and up 3 flights of stairs ! Dude you can do better mine was three fifty with withdrawl setup. I would hate to have to tip

I was thinking the same thing, but damn sure wasn't going to be the first to say it. :taunt:

RomDominance 03-10-2010 04:10 AM

Neuromancer 03-10-2010 04:13 AM

Wish I could carry my Dewar full of LN2 :(

Unfortunately it is still empty *sigh

Hondacity 03-10-2010 04:58 AM

darn everybody's chiming in...and now i'm divided lol and karmadude hasn't replied...

i'm sure my girl can't carry this piece of shit when full... :)

Chuchnit 03-10-2010 05:12 AM

If you get the big boy, just make you a roller cart. Four big caster will cost you ~50-75 bucks. The rest of the supplies couldn't cost too much whether steal or wood.

I'll let you know how heavy it is full when mine arrives. ;)

Neuromancer 03-10-2010 05:18 AM

35L=62.2525 of LN2 + dewar weight (25 pounds?) You should be able to carry it.

Chuchnit 03-10-2010 05:38 AM

lmao, I thought you were the red headed guy in the stream. :Dizzy: So you were the guy sitting at the table behind Travis??

Kal-EL 03-10-2010 05:57 AM

He was the manong hiding prom de camera all de time. But was the only one in the room capable of cranking out some ownage. :poke:(v2-v3)

If you can get Karma to sell it to you, it'll be a large plus. 50L will cover a few good sessions without a nagging need to constantly refill. I really wanted BOTH those 50L's but the shipping to Hawaii was astronomical.

Astronomical is not an honest term for those shipping prices :Dizzy: More like Supes better bend over and hold on to his toe hair, because this is gonna hurt. :laughing:

FACE 03-10-2010 06:21 AM

that looks like 50L .... /barf

Gutterz 04-08-2010 09:34 AM

50L isnt bad for tip pouring. You should see me shakiing the 50L upside down like an A1 bottle saying to yourself ya its that good.

FACE 04-08-2010 09:39 AM

I shot the guy a question on vacuum.... he hasn't replied back yet

EDIT: replied right after I typed that ^..

LOL "I dont think there is any vacuum for the tank? I did pour water into the tank to check if there are any leaks, None. I have never used it, I got this from a University Surplus. I belive this is in good shape."

lol. Ya dude it takes a Dirt Devil durr. I'd buy it even if he did put the water in it. Mine I found out has a surgical rubber turnicate in it. Realy dont know how Im going to get it out since its frozen all the time. An thawing it might take a bit an Im not sacrificeing bench time

Hondacity 04-08-2010 10:08 AM

lol water

just keep it frozen..but its better if the vacuum was there...it'll hold ln2 for weeks..

FACE 04-08-2010 10:12 AM

Well, wouldn't it be wise to dump the water out and dry the inside? I feel like I am really missing something.....

Hondacity 04-08-2010 10:28 AM

i would rather leave the water in..if its frozen and the leak is shut...then a semi vacuum is created...

vacuum in the dewars make the dewars contain ln2 temps stable...even for a long time...

Gutterz 04-08-2010 10:32 AM

I missing somthing too. Cause all the water did was tell him their wasnt a hole threw the side wall. A crack in the internals wont leak out. Kind a like a cooler, outside may look fine but the inside is cracked to shit an it wont hold Ice. But look it can hold water. I vote buy it. I chanced mine an its fine.

But we don't all live somewhere that's only 10 degrees warmer than the LN2, Kriz. :D

$75 for a shipped dewar with a lid? Heck, if you guys don't want it, I'll bid on it if it stays cheap. If I keep getting small dewars I'll eventually have the equivalent of a 160L. Isn't it a truism that the ugliest, most beat up looking dewars have the best seals?

Lids dont seal the dewar. It would explode if u did that. They have to breath so lid on or off dontmake much of a differance in evap. Now if the lid is off an you have a fan blowing across the top of it the evap would be alot greater.

Here is my ghetto ass lid I made out of a pool noodle an a thermos cap

Pool noodle, I already had one.

An if u dont think a dewar will blow up put a condom on the top an c what happens lol

FACE 04-08-2010 10:52 AM

I want a video of that..... time lapse ftw!

Patch 04-08-2010 11:52 AM

.......I meant the the double wall vacuum "seal"......

And nice noodle lid!

I should try the condom thing for fun. Cept I'm not sure I have any small enough to make a seal on the top......
