Depends on bottle size but No, it would not be a bottle per pit. It will last a few pits actually. Though I had no problem with cracking parts or falling magnets , i've also never ran an endurance race. And i've only used cheap silver cans. On the safe side you might wanna concentrate your freezing spray on outside of can and heatsinks. And use regular compressed air in the the ports.
