Major, this will save AF $$$ 120,000 per year. per site

Certain meteorological users have indicated that the use of the PBIS and AlumiFuel cartridges for the launching of two weather balloons daily from each of its sites would be only one-third the cost of hydrogen K-Cylinders delivered to various launching sites -- an annual savings of over $120,000 per site, not to mention the avoidance of having to distribute and handle the awkward, heavy, high pressure K-Cylinders. In fact, users are now able to launch weather balloons from sites previously not accessible to K-Cylinders.
