I would agree with Bill. if the system is tuned you could get between 4 to 6 hrs benching. My 60L will last for two bench session of around 4 to 6 hrs each. I have what is classified as a pressurized dewar so the evaporation rate is higher.

That's because you guys are LN2 Whores!

I went 7 hours with 10L and a gentle pour, with my two 10L container thats alot of time. Now for the truth, that 7 hour first session was a baby step, my second re-fill on the container took out 10L in 2 hours cuz I went for the gold! (never got it ) but I'm workin on it!

I hear these stories all the time, I only had 1L left of LN2 and benched for 5 hours and got 6 gold's. Never works out that way for me HAHAHA

Cascades have there +'s & -'s

They draw a lot of power and output a lot of heat, plus they makes a fair amount of noise. If your chip cannot handle temps of -100c or lower then the Cascade is out. I have had plenty of chips that do not like the Cascade coldness.

LN2 gives you plenty of options, can handle higher heat loads better buy pouring more LN2 and you can fine tune your temps to any temp you want really.

Each tool has its place. I usually start out with SS Phase, then Cascade and finally LN2 if it looks like the chip will perform.

All that said a Cascade makes running very easy, don't have to pour LN2, can take your time tunning etc.
