+1 on the 35 liters, anything larger would be too heavy for stairs. Amount you pay has a wild range unless you get in good with the Airgas people, or, know someone. I think their list price for a 35 liter is around $120. I get my 35 filled for $25 cause I had a connection.

Larger the dewar, cheaper the cost per liter due to cool down (LN2 they use to brind down the temp of your dewar. Never made sense to me that the smaller dewars would be more, but......

If you're a college student, check with the university

good luck

Yeah, pricing (an fillinig) can depend on who does the work the day you're there. I'm in their computer though and in tight with the regional branch manager They charge me $25 for the 35 and $38 for the fifty, not counting the environmental crap.

Do you know they have to charge an environmental disposal tax even though the approved disposal method is opening the valve and letting it escape into the atmosphere???? Effin rat bastards in Washington dammit :

The $120 is what's in the computer, but I doubt they charge anyone that amount
