[DIYbio] Anyone have experience with cryo storage in LN dewar?

Anyone have experience with cryogenic storage using a liquid nitrogen dewar? Do you have experience of their LN consumption daily with/without opening? 

We don't have the money for a -80 freezer and we thought that a dewar could be a good alternative since we have ready access to LN. We found a second hand dewar with a storage attachment:

If you have knowledge of suppliers based in UK that might have this kind of equip second hand we would be most appreciative. We are based in Ireland so suppliers need to be based in UK or worst case continental Europe. Sadly I don't know if we can afford shipping from US :(
