I use a Delta system and very little resin, about .2 of a gram on each repair giving me 75 repairs per bottle, other systems I have tried and tested use much the same or sometimes more. I am yet to find a system that uses less.

I reported in a past post (maybe 8 yrs. ago) that I was getting 110 repairs from a 1/2 ounce bottle.

I think we've gone above and beyond what this original post was about!

There ain't nothin' that'll get these guys more riled up than a vacuum thread.

I just found this site, didn't realize it was by delta. I use a machine for repairs and it out weighs a bridge system hands down.

I also used a machine that out weighed all injectors.....worked great but had to stop using it because it's 15 lb. weight was damaging my shoulder from carrying it around from one repair to another!

Machines don't allow tech interaction with breaks. Some repairs require manipulation to fill properly, not just vacuum and pressure cycles!
