looks ok to me--both green and red on the regulator show that round thing that is used to attach to both--

no idea what that last picture is, but the first two pics yes the red one attaches to the green oneView attachment 92598
But the flow meter looks like this. Do i attach this red one with the green one on the regulator?

sorry still confsed cause cant find info anywhere. Still trying to figure it out. And i guess people who have it would know
The oxygen regulator and flowmeter looks like this though so im confused.

That one is the oxygen regulator. Where the flowmeter connected to the regulator.no idea what that last picture is
Greenberg said you should use a Nitrogen regulator, not an Oxygen one----That one is the oxygen regulator. Where the flowmeter connected to the regulator.
I can only find nitrogen regulator but not nitrogen flow meter :(Greenberg said you should use a Nitrogen regulator, not an Oxygen one----
An Argon Flowmeter is acceptable but measure it down to 12.6 LPM--Argon Flowmeter at 12.6 LPM is same as Nitrogen Flowmeter at 15LPMI can only find nitrogen regulator but not nitrogen flow meter :(
theres co2, argon, and oxygen flow meter
''You don't need to worry about being sure to choose a regulator that will reduce the pressure: they all do that. The flowmeter is the critical element of the regulator for our purposes.''
Hello. Tell me, please, are you from Russia? (I made this assumption after seeing your name)Hi,my questions about regulator.

1.Where is the flowmeter here? Pic 1 or Pic 2?
In the guide @TiredHorse said about two pressure gauges: the tank pressure gauge (unimportant to us) and the flowmeter gauge.
Which one should i buy?
2.I remember from some guide that one of the pressure gauges shows how much gas is left in the cylinder. Which of these shows this information?
3.Why some people here are buying 100$+ regulators whereas there are many around 50$,is there a real difference for suicide? TiredHorse said
and does 28 CF is enough? I'm looking also for the conversion in liters and it looks ok but want to make sure35cf equals approximately 1m^3. So yes, you have more than enough gas. Best, G
I think Argon works fine, but Greenberg here is the expert, among others--I'd refer to him, although you need more posts to PM him---Argon is mentioned here on the Mega Thread but not sure where, check the last 20 pagesHello I'm new here. I've been considering Argon for the last year or so because I can easily order a full 40 cu ft tank and have it shipped to my home. I read the Wikipedia page on exit bags and noticed a new section that gives me second thoughts.
From the first paragraph of the "mechanism" section it says argon won't work because it's heavier than air and won't fill the bag from the top down, leaking out the bottom instead. The sources, however, are poor. One is just a link to the dangers of gas and material safety data sheets. The other returns a 404 error.
I read the talk page for clarification and it has two more sources. One is about a failed attempt which lasted over an hour with condensation in the bag. The other is about running out of argon because a mask was used.
Although I'm fairly sure this section is poorly sourced and should be removed from the article, it still makes me hesitant because I've never though about argon being heavier than air and I've never read about any successful attempts.
I'm curious if anyone here has any further thoughts or info on this.
One of the greatest but sometimes problematic features of WIKI is that it is public sourced and real experts don't always come by to fix misinformation. I'm not saying I'm an expert, but I have been researching and experimenting with this method for some time now and have a fair understanding of the physics.Hello I'm new here.

From what I've read using masks isn't as effective.Don´t you wanna use the helium / nitrogen method with diving equipment ?
Just say you're getting it for a friendFrom what I've read using masks isn't as effective.
Thanks everyone. I could go to a welding store and try and get nitrogen but my anxiety is stopping me. I'm just afraid I'll be asked brewing or welding questions I can't answer.
True. I've never been in a welding supply store. Any idea if they make you create an account like AirGas? They want you to fill out a bunch of paperwork. I also looked for brewing suppliers. None within a few hours.Just say you're getting it for a friend
Don't mention Airgas,they're pathetic--Called some here locally and all their tanks are too small--others PM"d me said they hate AirgasTrue. I've never been in a welding supply store.

I´m not talking about any mask, but about a professional diving equipment.From what I've read using masks isn't as effective.

Unfortunately it could be true, I also found info that argon is heavier than air. I don't recommend argon.argon won't work because it's heavier than air and won't fill the bag from the top down, leaking out the bottom instead
Doesn´t matter, as long as the purity is ok.Hello guys,
I just wanted to know if the size of the exitbag matters because I tried to ctb using a big bag but it didn't work. Also can I use food grade nitrogen or must it be technical grade nitrogen.
Many thanks
Industrial Nitrogen is always 99% pure--You can always ask the retailer to be sure--Exit bag usually should be the 19" x 23.5", also known as a 'Turkey Bag', seen in supermarketsHello guys,
I just wanted to know if the size of the exitbag matters because I tried to ctb using a big bag but it didn't work. Also can I use food grade nitrogen or must it be technical grade nitrogen.

Its not that loud at all--But Inside the exit bag itself you'll hear some hissing, so I wore ear plugs for my tests--Make sure the Regulator is quite tightly connected to the Tank, use a wrench--Otherwise,when you first turn the highly pressurized Nitrogen tank on, the regulator/flowmeter will shoot off like a cannon, making a loud popping soundHi, does anyone know how loud the cylinder is when it's connected to the regulator and tube? I've read some people saying it's really loud. Is it only loud from up close or could it be heard from another room? I'm planning on going to a hotel and don't want anyone to hear me.
15L is perfectly acceptable and will get the job done,as per Greenberg---When talking to K about our Canadian source, he said 25 LPM may make the Nitrogen colder to youhey guys, is it true that 15 L/min isn't optimal and is the bare minimum? my click style regulator only has the option for 15L or 25L and now i'm unsure what to do....
