It seems im back to square one.
If i purchase an argon regulator, theres a very convoluted calculus that has to be done and its barely addressed even if answered. :
https://sanctioned-suicide.net/thre...as-and-why-is-it-a-co2-argon-regulator.21456/
Because the regulator is rated for argon, and nitrogen had very different weight than argon, i need to find that conversion number.
15 lpm argon =/ 15 lpm nitrogen, despite people saying it works. ( And it does, technically they have the same fittings.)
How much lpm in argon regulator = 15 lpm in nitrogen.
Thankfully Greenberg had it adressed in his nitrogen exit blog and apparently its 12.5 lpm.
Problem is this comment on the megathread dismantled that option single handedly.
( Read picture attached now here for context)
( Based on that . maybe it could still work if i set the flow rate higher, since i have a 10 liter, so way more than i need, and wouldn't worry about wasting, but I don't know how that would affect or change everything.)
Ok.... Nitrogen regulator then... With extra money, extra work and confusion to buy an added nitrogen flowmeter, since as you noted it doesn't even have a correct ( no lpm like argon) reading and I would need one.
Only one problem. Theres none. Nada. 0. Googled aggressively "nitrogen flowmeter" and theres absolutely none to buy in uk, as the guy touches on in the comment as well.
All flow regulators i find are for argon.
So nitrogen tank - nitrogen pressure and flow regulator ( latter part unusable) + argon flowmeter?
That would still lead to a weird conversion and it isn't made to work together and its all making me super anxious.
I spent one month and money trying to replicate the SCUBA Stickstoff method in greenbergs blog by that german user, got everything i needed, but it was all wasted effort in the end because i just wasn't in Germany so our valves and adapters were different, it didn't work and what i need it doesn't exist. ( No valve talk was mentioned in the guide, only adapters that don't adapt to my valve type, since im in the uk, so i only found out after the purchases.)
Refunded the regulator and still have the mask, and the nitrogen tank.
And now i have to settle for the classic exit bag and i can't pull that off either because im not from the USA and don't have the correct equipment either available??
If you're in USA you make a quick buy list, read the nitrogen megathread and you're set to go, but here am i almost 2 months into it, im running out of money and thus time,( cant afford esc mode one, thats why i wanted to buy regular ones, almost 10 times less the price.)
And the only things i have ready are the bag and the tank. I've done so much reading into stupid fittings, connections, that I don't wanna know anything about and im no closer to have my last days spent peacefully.
I just wanna buy everything i need at a non predatory price, put them together and be at peace that i can go anytime, but here im stuck doing stupid ass math conversions confirmed by almost nobody on the site ( unlike the tests done on peaceful pill with their equipment etc) and if anyone goes wrong it could lead me to brain damage.
Most of the information seems catered to the US and im scrambling for bits and pieces.
Geniuenly feel like crying.
But i may be overreacting, ill go to in for tonight and see what i can do again tomorrow.
