Well, wouldn't it be wise to dump the water out and dry the inside? I feel like I am really missing something.....

[Hondacity]

i would rather leave the water in..if its frozen and the leak is shut...then a semi vacuum is created...

vacuum in the dewars make the dewars contain ln2 temps stable...even for a long time...

I missing somthing too. Cause all the water did was tell him their wasnt a hole threw the side wall. A crack in the internals wont leak out. Kind a like a cooler, outside may look fine but the inside is cracked to shit an it wont hold Ice. But look it can hold water. I vote buy it. I chanced mine an its fine.

I had my thermos filled with ln2 over the night without a cap on, still there was more than 50% of the ln2 left.

But we don't all live somewhere that's only 10 degrees warmer than the LN2, Kriz.

$75 for a shipped dewar with a lid? Heck, if you guys don't want it, I'll bid on it if it stays cheap. If I keep getting small dewars I'll eventually have the equivalent of a 160L. Isn't it a truism that the ugliest, most beat up looking dewars have the best seals?

Lids dont seal the dewar. It would explode if u did that. They have to breath so lid on or off dontmake much of a differance in evap. Now if the lid is off an you have a fan blowing across the top of it the evap would be alot greater.

Here is my ghetto ass lid I made out of a pool noodle an a thermos cap





Pool noodle, I already had one.


An if u dont think a dewar will blow up put a condom on the top an c what happens lol

I want a video of that..... time lapse ftw!

.......I meant the the double wall vacuum "seal"......

And nice noodle lid!

I should try the condom thing for fun. Cept I'm not sure I have any small enough to make a seal on the top......
