Abstract
The invention relates to the field of portable compressed gas cartridge dispensers comprising the ability to predictably permeate the pressurized gas contained within a compressed gas cartridge. An object of the invention is to predict leak rate thus dispensing life and to provide a substantially constant leak rate for the cartridge usable life until the compressed gas cartridge is substantially spent. Another object of the invention is to harness the permeated gas for various applications.
