Flypast111,
Thanks for the details I knew I'd heard quite a while back!
Still, may I ask whether you weighed the 7 ounces of fluid captured, or measured the volume obtained? I DID mention the Specific Gravity difference between technical ether and the standard base: water, which suggests that the 6.4 fluid ounces of ether (actually I should have used the contents weight of 7 avoirdupois ounces instead of 8.) 80% of 7 is 5.6 ounces, and at an SG of 0.7, that weight of ether should yield a volume of 8 fluid ounces. Slight losses in 'capturing' ether from the spray can may be involved here.... or perhaps a random volume of other liquids as the range of possible content suggests is possible.
Again, thinking non-metrically, a quart is ~ .947 liter (volume) so a bit more ether will be needed to bring a liter of blend over 10% to 12% ether. (A liter fits into a quart can, and I use a 1000cc graduate to simplify mixing a batch. Desired percentages then measure directly in cc...)
