Yeah, the stuff has to be available. We buy it b=8 cans at a time in flats from Costco. I think I've gone through 3 cans of the stuff since I bought my istD back in 2003. If I was cleaning sensors commercially, I would probably rent a tank of nitrogen (I could use it to fill my truck tyres as well), but for the occasional use that I make of the stuff, it isn't terribly expensive.
