Check local codes for storage requirements. Also be aware of pressure differances as compared to the common air tanks you may be used to. An air tank on a typical single stage compressor may be as high as 130 PSI. An industrial nitrogen tank may well run 2500-3000 psi. This could lead to some surprises as you "quick fill" your tires/nose strut beyond capacity! A good Scuba Diving Shop can provide you with information that will ensure safety as it is a common practice to have an air chuck from a Scuba Tank. Scuba tanks are typicaly filled to 3000 PSI. Be safe as an exploding tire or strut WILL get your full and undivided attention. Regards...JBC
