Re: Welding gas consumption

There should be 2 gages on the bottle one for bottle pressure and like said it will be high around that 1500 psi or so. The second one is your welding pressure and should be around 5 - 8 psi. The gas will last a long long long time under normal conditions. I just filled a small tank 2 feet tall or so and it was around 20 dollars to fill 300 bucks seems a bit steep.
I wonder if they got it full?
