Yeah, when renting big ones they don't understand what we use em for and tend to give high pressure valves for people who want N2 gas. When I rented one the sucker popped off every 30 minutes, blasted practically across the room from the "liquid" valve, and I got about 80L out of it in a few days.
Apparently they can use low pressure valves that are more conducive to our use, but they need to know what you're talking about and be willing to give you a low pressure valve on the tank. The LN2 I've drawn from the 230L tanks at MSI and ASUS events comes out at a much lower pressure.
Don't get a 5L. Unless it's just to transfer in small amounts from a larger dewar at home. I have 4 dewars (30L, 25L, 20L, 10L). I appreciate the portability of the 10L and sometimes transfer into it from the 30L when I know I'll need to quickly refill my thermoses when running multiple pots.
