Both of them leak through the thread of smaller cap (big-mouth cap was fine). One droplet every 2-3 seconds. I leaned full bags vertical against the wall so that cap was in the lower end - didn't sit on them or anything. Was it my bad luck, or just nobody paid attention before? >> I own four of the things, and over 6-8 years of use, have never had this problem (I use the small caps with flip-up lids). Also never had a leak with the big caps. Durn hard to get off at the end of a trip, though, after the bags have sat around for a few days, dry. I suspect it is a bad batch of lids. I've had good luck with the warranty on these things. Back in 1996 or so they made a poor choice of antifungal in the liner that made the water nasty, and replaced all four then at no cost. -- Dave Kruger Astoria, OR *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
