the empty bottle alone is almost 20lbs.

i have been told a full 15lbs bottle is almost 75lbs and a 10lbs is about 55lbs

That can't be right. My 10lb bottle weighs about 15lbs, and full it's around 25lbs.

Same here. There's no way a full 15 lb bottle can weigh 75 lbs. 15 lbs of nitrous is 15 lbs.
