Confused on Remote Bottle Opener
Ok, I understand how a RBO works but what I don't understand is once I turn the toggle off will the bottle close? Or do I have to remove the unit and close it my self? If so, Could I run two toggle switches and reverse the polarity on one causing the electric motor to run in reverse thus closing the bottle???
Please help me out I don't want to buy a RBO if they only open the bottle I need it to do both!!!

There are two types of openers... The NX style actually spins the valve on top of your bottle. Yes, t opens and closes the bottle. The second type is the NOS type. It's basically a large volume solenoid. This style, you leave the valve open all the time. The solenoid opens to allow nitrous to flow and closes to shut it off. I prefer the NX style.

Wow... Thought you were talking about opening a bottle of beer or something. Was very curious why you'd want a remote opener for that, and how in the world it could work and what the purpose would possibly be.
