Default WTB - purge valves for dry bags


"Scott Bemis" wrote in message
om...
I am planning to make many small dry bags - to use for kayaking,
backpacking, and bicycle touring. I would like to add purge valves to
these homemade dry bags. I cannot yet find a place that sells purge
valves that I can use with dry bags. I am looking for something
similar to the Autopurge (tm) valve as offered in Seattle Sports bags.

Any information on where to purchase purge valves would be
appreciated.

End


Just a comment from experience over the past few years. Dry bags work really
well when they are slightly pressurised, if they are purged they are likely
to suck moisture in. I had a nice damp sleeping bag on one trip where I used
the dry bag as a stuff bag and compressed the sleeping bag as I packed and
folded the neck.

Just my two bobs worth - any other opinions?
