Ok, after my safety cap fiasco, I put another cap in and refilled the bottle. I immediately hooked it up and checked the pressure. I have one guage on the bottle and one in my cupholder. The cupholder guage read slightly above 900 and the bottle guage read almost 950. I closed the bottle and went to work. When I got off I opened it again and checked both guages. They both read around 900. Throughout the night I turned the heater on for 2-5 minutes at a time, and checked both guages. They went up to about 925 right off the bat, but then I sprayed once and purged and it went down to 900. After that the pressure never moved. I felt the bottle and it was warm (very warm at one point) but the pressure on both guages read the same the whole night: 900psi. How is it that my bottle is evading the laws of chemistry here???

Well do you have a thermostat for the warmer installed?
If yes it will shut it off even if you still have the switch still on.
Also, how much nitrous do you have in the bottle?
Weigh it, if you do not have enough in it then you could heat the sh*t out of it and never hit the desired psiRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

No thermostats and the bottle was completely full. Had just filled it that afternoon and hadn't even sprayed it yet.

No thermostat, I just grounded the wire so that if the switch is on, the heater is on. When I got it it didn't have it, but I'm getting one in couple days.
Anyways, it seems that my bottle only evades chemical laws at night. In the daytime (under the hot Florida sun) I turned the heater on for about 3 minutes and heated the bottle from 950 to 1100psi. Why didn't it go up at all on Saturday night when I had it on for 5 minutes? The bottle was pretty warm even to the touch... the pressure HAS to go up... it's basic chemistry!!-<i>Travis</i><br /><b>99 Trans Am, Pewter, A4</b> Forged, stalled, and cammed<br /><b>85 Buick Regal WH1 T-Type</b> It\'d be cool if it ran...<br /><b>94 Camaro 3.4, Teal, M5</b> The daily beaterComment

Does the warmer actually get warm?
It will get so hot it can burn your hand.
During the day w/o the wamrer my bottle psi can be 900+ psiRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6
