There are differences in heaters. From the sounds of it you are looking for a wrap around silicon style heater.

If that is what you are looking for there are a few options.

Heater element with a relay that you turn off and on, Temp controlled, and pressure controlled.

A heater element with relay will be your cheapest route. You will have to watch the bottle pressure and turn in off when the bottle gets up to pressure.

I dont care for the temp controlled heaters. The thermostats are bad about burning out.

The pressure controlled is my favorite. They use a pressure switch that mounts at the bottle. Once the bottle pressure reaches the set pressure it will turn its self off and back on.

We offer our Brand X style wrap around heaters in element only andf pressure controlled.
But if you want something with alittle more style check out the Nitrous Outelte heater where the bottle bracket and heater are all made in one.

Bottle heater on a on/off switch is what I got,remote psi gauge would be sweeter.
