Sergey,

I would like to purchase a bottle of your Freon 114 per your email below.? I have a P6015 with an empty Freon can.? Unless you are oversubscribed, I will send the $35.00 through PayPal right away.? Please let me know.? Thank you.

BTW, I tried to contact you directly at "ksi@..." (without the quote marks, of course) but it "bounced" twice. .? Please confirm if this address is correct.

Hi everybody,

I finally have that Freon 114 for Tektronix P6015 probes ready to go. I
uploaded 2 photos in Freon114 album so everybody can look at the original
30lb jug and the bottle I'll be shipping it in.

It is actually very easy to work on. It feels much like diethyl ether just
colder. Similar chloroform-like smell, similar cold feeling, no frostbyte...
Very easy to fill those bottles -- attach a stock refrigerant hose to the
jug, put jug upside down, open the valve one full turn and it flows like
water from a faucet... Starts boiling on contact with the room temperature
bottle but almost immediately cools down and boiling stops. Pressure in the
bottle at room temperature is not high so it is safe. It is quite dense, way
heavier than water and vapor is very heavy -- it flows like water.

Should be very easy to use -- just put it into a household freezer for an
hour or so before opening and it pours like water, nothing special.

So everybody who needs it can get it right now. As I already told it is $25
for 100ml plus $3 for the bottle. I don't want to bother with pennies on
shipping charges, PayPal fees etc, so let's make it $7 flat for shipping
within continental US and everything else. That makes it $35 shipped.

Those bottles are actually not all that bad and they have a plug in addition
to that tamper-proof cap. Bottles are 125ml filled with 100ml of freon.
Everybody who worked with refrigerants knows that all the cylinders must be
filled for not more than 80% of their actual volume to give room for vapor
pressure. It might be not that important for high boiling R-114 but anyways
better be safe than sorry...

I can also fill your bottles if you want so, just ship them to me. It
doesn't make much sense because you'll spend more on shipping than my
bottles cost but anyways...

Payment is via PayPal to ksi-at-koi8-dot-net. I have 25 those bottles on
hand. If there is more takers I'll have to order another 25. This takes a
week -- they are shipped from Florida UPS ground and it takes time to
deliver them to Las Vegas...

I will be packing them on weekends and they will be picked up on Mondays.
Everybody who paid before Sunday will have their box shipped on Monday.
Those who paid later will have their boxes packed next Sunday and shipped
out the following Monday.

As a side note -- one never knows what treasure he might find on garage sale
that he happened to drive by :) It was not actually a full 30lb jug, just
30lb gross weight but it is still 24lb+ of Freon 114 left in that jug that
should be enough for everyone for a long while...
