Can you patch the bladder? They sent me a new one, but since I still have the old one I'd love to make it usable and have two bladders. Tried a thermarest seal kit and it didn't stick to the bladder. It's just a pinhole leak I need to seal.

You don't need to. They have a 100% lifetime warranty. One of mine (I have three now for various uses) started leaking around the lower connector. I contacted Geigerrig and they sent a new one via next day air. I had a new bladder in time for my weekend adventure, no questions asked. Gotta love a company that stands behind their product like that. That said, it's a semi rough exterior, so I don't know how well it would hold a patch in the field.

I used this to repair the hole, and then used a piece of vinyl and All purpose cement to patch it. I let that sit for 2 hours and have not had any issues out of any of my repairs. Smaller holes I was able to just use this by itself. This product doesn't seem to be very sticky for attaching a patch, but it somehow manages to almost "mold" the vinyl of the mattress back together.

good observation with the wax seals. The clog is trans the wax seal and when plunge (increase pressure) the toilet the way of least resistance (the wax) gives in. This should not happen with the new seal or only transiently. good luck to all of us. One solution is to unclog with a "snake".

The original item comes with both the bladder and cover and tie down cords. You can replace either the cover or bladder separately if and when needed. Inflate just enough to get your behind off your seat. Not dumb at all, but in your case "may be" is actually two separate words.

If you work on bladder control while using the patch, I found that when I stopped using it I was still ok for a few weeks. But the urgency problem is slowly returning. I don't know if that happens to everyone or just me.

I've owned a couple of these over the years and never had any leaking issues. Your most prone to issues from the removing and installing the bladder from the pack. Hope this helps.

I have just purchased the toilet and installed lately, have not thought about replacing yet. Try direct to Thetford, or my last toilet I went to home depotand bought an elongated seat. A slight medication and it worked. That's all I can offer. Bud

We patched ours a couple of different ways. If it's a pin hole, a drop off crazy glue will fix it; for a larger hole use the patch kit that came with the pool.To find the hole, you have to get it wet and see where it bubbles, from the air escaping.

Is it possible to use new or old towels to make your own? Or perhaps cloth diapers or maybe the microfiber cloths? I am sort of asking for myself as well because I have been so impressed with the "Comments" that I am planning on buying one.

Unless you punctured the original bladders you shouldn't need any. If you did puncture a bladder you can pick some up at CVS that are almot identical. They are the little cubed ones that can take a bend to form fit body parts. Hope this helps.

I don't have the bladder handy to measure. We replaced a 2 liter bladder with this one and it fits in our small pack well. We love this bladder ...no leaking at the mouthpiece! I don't think you will have any trouble with the size, if you do...Amazon has a great return policy.

over time I have switched to other bladders. My favorite right now is http://www.geigerrig.com/. I have tried Camelbaks and Platypus bags but I find the geigerrig's ability to turn inside out the easiest to clean and keep dry. The problem with the sawyer bags are they are hard to keep clean and the handles/small hole at the bottom tear under full weight of water (or maybe a bit more if you hang it wrong) so they become (imo) worthless. If I had to do it all over again, i would just order the filter and make my own system with it. Just my .02

Worked for me..... read all the instructions.. if it is a small hole or tear glue it shut first ...wait until next day then apply the patch over the entire surface and let it cure a day or so or longer... still working and holding air as normal after several fills.fixed several months ago ..still holding after several fills....used on an air mattress only...

This unit comes already pressurized. If you have an older unit, just use a bicycle air pump to increase the pressure inside. If there is a leak in the bladder, only option is to replace the tank. Note that I am not an expert on this matter - just expressing opinion from my experience.....best regards.

I wouldn't suggest doing that. The soft sides most likely wouldn't hold the full bladder without a lot of strain. NOT A GOOD IDEA!!

I believe it comes with something so you can patch it up....if not you could go to a store and find something to cover the hole and find some glue.
