I'd be very surprised if this can be done within the university mate, as they don't like housing the cylinders inside as it is. Also *home* nitrox tends to be more expensive than buying it at a shop, either way you would have to put pure o2 into a tank (unless i read your post wrong and are getting pre mix 40%) and you would need a few J's to run the pressure to make it worthwhile, and then have them chained to the wall, and get a one way valve for the whips on the compressor. But then its £300 for a half decent whip (or £100 for an AP one which would do the job) plus the plumbing for the J's (if we got multiple). Your looking at about £500 (inc o2 analyser) to set this up, and then the cylinder standing charges. But if your serious push for a booster aswell.

IMHO for the amount of trainees we do, I doubt Warwick Sport would go for this, but if you get their backing then its a good step forward.

I used to blend in my kitchen ;') I don't think anyone in branch would resist the changes mate.
