Personally, my team has used gas springs before, quite possibly the same ones you linked (another mentor obtained them, so I can't be sure, but they look the same to me!). I wasn't aware that there was any oil in them other than that needed for lubrication. I kind of want to get one now and cut it open to see how much is actually in there...

Maybe we can get Al to chime in here!
