Document revision: 2026-10-27.1. This is a documentation revision, not a new hardware version. Physical sample testing has not been performed for this release. Test dates, sample serial numbers, operators and independent approval are not available. Values copied from product specifications are declared specifications, not measured results.
How much oil is dispensed per spray?
We do not currently have a dated, operator-signed measurement for a fixed grams-per-spray value. Output varies with oil viscosity and temperature, fill level, nozzle condition, trigger travel, angle and actuation speed. Do not use a universal “0.2 g per press”, calorie-per-spray or percentage oil-reduction figure as a validated result.
OIL-OUT-01 v1.0 — proposed method, not completed testing
- Identify the bottle SKU, selected option, nozzle/pump version, batch and individual unit. Record prior use, cleaning and wear. Keep different nozzle generations and bottle models separate.
- Record the exact oil type/brand/lot, measured oil temperature, ambient temperature and humidity, fill mass or fill level, bottle orientation, target distance, trigger travel and actuation cadence. Do not replace measured oil temperature with room temperature.
- Verify the balance with an appropriate check mass; record instrument ID, resolution and uncertainty. Prime the pump into a separate container and record how many priming strokes were needed.
- Proposed starting design: three separately identified units; three blocks of ten full trigger strokes per unit under each declared condition. These are planned counts, not completed results. Use a tared collector large enough to catch the entire plume and a consistent, documented distance and angle.
- Weigh the collector before and after each block. Mean captured mass per stroke equals net collected mass divided by the actual stroke count. Separately weigh bottle loss to check for missed mist, drips and capture error. Do not call captured mass total output if capture losses are unknown.
- Retain individual-block results and, if using a suitable balance, per-stroke measurements. Report sample count, mean, range, variation and uncertainty by oil, temperature and unit. Include partial strokes only as a separate condition.
- Do not convert grams to millilitres without the density for that oil at the recorded temperature. Calorie estimates need their own stated nutritional basis. A spray-output test cannot establish “60% less oil” without a predeclared matched recipe and comparison method.

Choose and use a sprayer
Choose spray/pour function, size, finish and cleaning access for your routine. On an air fryer, apply suitable liquid cooking oil to the food according to the appliance maker's instructions. Avoid interpreting the trigger as a calibrated dosing instrument. For a stream instead of a mist, check oil temperature/viscosity, a complete trigger stroke and a clean nozzle. Follow the exact product's care instructions; do not force the mechanism apart.
