Default Where to Buy Compressed Air in a Can

So I need a can of this stuff, looking online seems very pricey for what is, well, air.

Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy it other than eBay. Thanks a bunch.

Try CCL - http://www.cclonline.com/product-inf...58&tid=gsearch

Not sure what postage they would charge though!

Agreed. It's pretty expensive over here also, for air...

But it's a great thing to have, also scares the hell out of my cat

If you have any stores over there like they do here called dollar stores you can sometimes find it there for about half of what they charge in a electronics store.

I just use a compressor :)

I have about 200L when it is full :)

It is a little noisy though

Oh and yes I agree, they do charge a lot for a can of air.

its actually not just air. its liquid that becomes air. think of it like a bottle of soda/pop. its is a liquid, but when shook the pressure increases due to increased gas amounts. and sadly that liquid can get you high, thus in the USA u must be 18 or older to buy them.

Yeah, there can be lots of fluorocarbons in them I think. They used to make good flame throwers until they stopped putting butane in them.

You can also use them to provoke frostbite, just hold the can upside down and squeeze. A very very cold liquid will come out.
