Angry Bad Nitous Bottle or Filled with Air?

When you open a full nitrous bottle, there should be atleast a mild white plume depending on the temp correct? Also, if I were to open the full bottle and stick me hand under the contents, it should be so cold as to burn my hand or close right?

If these is true,I must have gotten two bad bottles, when I open the bottle, it is completely clear and not very cold. Nor are my trap speeds even remotely close to what they were.

I think you got pwned.
If you let one blow out it'll create a ball of ice

Really? lol I would rather that be the problem than something else. But it should definitely burn my hand if it was nitrous I think.

All my previous bottles blew out ice chunks, these two hardly anything.

From now on, I guess I need to shoot out some of the bottle right after I get it filled to make sure its good.

I believe Dirt Track Racer has a Pic in his photobucket of when he let one empty out. Left a huge ball of ice.

Nope, worse, Kennedale. Where is a reputable place in DFW(close to mid cities) to get a bottle filled? I FOR SURE want a good bottle for Ennis on Saturday.

Crack it open before you leave. I'd go back to the place that filled it and call them out.
