You need your own helium. We bought ours at Target and filled at least 5 balloons of various sizes.

you must get it filled yourself...you can purchase a helium tank at the big box discount stores in the cards/party section or party supply stores

You need to get it filled . I went to the local dollar store and the filled for free

Fill with air or helium through the filling sleeve connected to the balloon. Automatic seal then closes after filling.

This product is a liquid solution, almost like a glue that seals the balloon so when you ADD helium to it the helium lasts much longer because the seal is preventing the helium from leaving the balloon.

It needs to be inflated with helium. You receive it flat, you need to add air.

Its to help keep the helium in the balloon longer. Mine lasted about a week. Still need helium.

Lots. It just takes a little tiny bit (not a full pump) and then you squish it around in the inside of the balloon. Too much of a squirt will actually make the balloons drop because of the weight (in the mtns of CO, anyway). But really, just a little squirt and then you massage the balloon. I just found 3 balloons from November when cleaning our theater that were still inflated --- not floating, but not loosing air. It works if you are looking for something to extend the helium's "hours".

I don't know about helium. We used them as water balloons for the kids to bounce on.

I'm sorry but the balloon was for a customer not for me, so I can't help you. He told me: "Yes, you need to buy a separate helium tank"

You should under inflate it to about a 6' diameter. Measure the shadow it casts to get an approximation. As it ascends the helium will expand the balloon to the 20' diameter before it bursts.

No, you have to purchase it separately. My friend, who got this gift for her son last year, purchased helium locally, but I wanted to have it all on Christmas morning. It costs about $30. It is worth the money in my opinion. My sons loved this gift!

Yes, it comes filled. The fill tube is on the bottom of the lighter, just in the center of the flame adjustment screw.

No, the helium is very light. Does not add much weight at all but only charges battery to 80%. I have had to warranty it already though.

yes it lasts as long as you have helium in the tank. Valve works great and helium will only escape if a balloon is put onto the nozzle and the nozzle adjusted downwards. Worth the money!

I filled it with a small funnel I have from another atomizer I own. Amazon sells mini funnels or you can use any kind of dropper (like from nose drops) to fill it. Or even a turkey baster.

From the Product Description: "Tank holds approximately 14.9 cubic feet of helium..." Now all you need to do is calculate the volume of the balloon you wish to fill and you have your answer!

I don't know really how to answer this question. The best way I can describe it is that we used about the same amount of helium as 3-4 large Mylar balloons. I would think a small tank that you purchase from the dollar store or Wal-Mart would fill it. We pay a yearly rental fee for our large helium tank so it is really hard to judge. I can tell you that our large tank filled 10 of these large air walker balloons plus several latex and Mylar balloons, and we still have plenty of helium left in the tank.

When I got it , it lasted longer. You may had not put a fair amount of helium in the balloons. And tie them with you hand, I mean without using ribbon, if you know what I mean.
