There are those working boro that swear the extra purity of bottled oxygen can make a lot of difference in how the colors play for you in hard glass.

Welding oxy tanks run to 99.9% purity versus the 90 to 95% you will get out of oxycons on their best days. I don't know at what percentage purity oxycons will set a low purity alarm at. It might be as low as 85%.

I bet Shawnette would know.

Maybe someone experienced in boro and tanks will chime in about the difference between sources.
