Hi
It's been in a real weird 2021 so far in Toon Town and I wasn't able to get everything I needed in place in time to launch the floater I had planned for GPSL. I'll still be attending GPSL but

Re: Your experiences in buying helium in the era of increased scarcity; hydrogen buying hassles, too

Thanks for the link.

John,
That is funny. I saw that radio image when I did my search but did not read the text and skipped right past it.
Thank you.

Re: Your experiences in buying helium in the era of increased scarcity
Here is a link to an adapter I bought and used with hydrogen at GPSL 2018. The listing shows a car radio in the photo for some bizarre reason but it is the same listing I ordered from in

Thanks for mentioning about difficulty buying hydrogen because that's an issue that would be worth hearing about as well as the helium thing. I had just heard from Bill B. that there has been

Hank,
I could not find that adapter on Amazon (poor search skills). Could you provide a link to that adapter?
Ironically, Airgas won't sell me hydrogen. But another, less convenient supplier

Re: Your experiences in buying helium in the era of increased scarcity
Yes, I use an adapter like that for my regulator. Perhaps not an ideal adapter if you're welding, or attached to the tank for long periods of time, but for a balloon fill, I think it's

Re: Your experiences in buying helium in the era of increased scarcity
A new regulator is not necessary because there are standard, CGA approved adapters available for doing these conversions. The type needed is an CGA 350 (Hydrogen side) to CGA 580 (Helium

Good luck

Re: Bill Brown please unjam your cellphone mailbox

Re: Bill Brown please unjam your cellphone mailbox
Hi all,
Just FYI on helium, for whatever it’s worth I just purchased a 150 cylinder from Airgas in San Jose CA for $300. They also had 200 cylinders for $400. Very high prices now but at least
