    Anybody know the o-ring spec? Should be able to order from Parker O-ring catalog, right?

    Also: anybody know if the o-rings are the same as the Wary AviVest/AviPack?

    I found the Wary O ring kit available at SnowBigDeal.com. I believe they are selling through remaining Wary stock. But good idea for the future.

    It came with quite a few rings so even if I pull it to test once a year, this should last until hopefully we have a retrofit solution from MR as Scralph suggested.

    Absolutely Love the pack, hope to keep using for a long time

    Driver I used to test every 2-3 weeks due to ski travel to SLC, Jackson, etc. Your kit comes with like 10 rings, I wouldn't sweat it.

    I now have an empty canister for travel and a full canister for home use, so I don't test quite as often anymore.

    The only really funny thing I have to say about the pack is how obnoxiously big it looks on me ... I'm such a small guy, and with this thing loaded up with avy gear, SWAG kit, 30m rope + harness, extra layers, first aid kit, skins food water etc ... the thing is bigger than my entire torso

    HALP! Tested my blackjack today and now I cant remove the red threaded connector from the canister - just spins and spins. I remember this being a problem in the past but don't remember how I solved it. Any ideas?

    Doesnt that thing have a tiny set screw on the thumbwheel? Mine is packed up downstairs so I can’t verify anything yet.

    Not clear on what piece of the rig has a thumbwheel. Mine has a gauge, pull pin for the hose that goes to the bag, and a threaded connector that goes to the trigger handle.

    Anyways I managed to solve my problem by pulling the trigger to max travel while unthreading the red anodized barrel connector.
