Default Anyone using a Cricket on tanked oxy?

Does anyone else use a Cricket with tanked oxy?

How do you like it?

My tank and regulator should be here Friday or Monday and I will start out with 104, then try out my BE and then...the boro shorts I bought from Brent. I promised Brent I would make some boro beads for the kids once I got the hang of boro.

Can you tell I am excited to do this? DH has been telling me for years to go to tanked oxy....he had this really cute lopsided (sorta smug) smile on his face when he heard me on the phone with Mike at our local airgas...

i am using a cricket on tanked until my m10 gets here tomorrow and its great. it has such a focused flame that the 96coe melts like butter. I switched from a cheetah and I have to honestly say that I noticed no difference lol

I use tanked oxy through most of the summers and the concentrator during winter when the humidity is low. It goes really well on either but of course, I can sizzle a bit harder on tanked. I think I noticed the diff. more on the minor.

WOW! I'am gonna love it I think.

Thank-you Kym you gave me an idea, I might get my oxycon fixed and keep it for lean times when I don't have the extra money for the tanked.
