That's why I retired mine and got a different brand. I believe
the failure to inflate is the reason that they failed CG
certification.

That's pretty much a "feel good" thing. Jumping in only tests
the current CO2 cylinder and trigger. Once it is rearmed
with a new kit, there is no guarantee it will work. I suppose
that testing it to make sure it will hold air is a good idea, but
you can do that manually.

=================================

What exactly is your problem? There are a lot of people using
Sospenders who probably found it informative. I did.

I'm of the opinion that everyone who wears an inflatable harness
should jump in the pool at least once and test the whole thing out.

Over the years, I have tested my SOSsuspenders auto-inflate at least 5
times and it has failed twice to inflate requiring me to manually pull
the inflate cord.
