CO2 Cartridges for the lifevests

Post by jbdba01 »

On Sat I managed to deploy my auto lifevest. Kayak in tow I was wading at the time so it was no real tragedy - just dropped the pliers in the water and bent over to pick them up and BLAM...safe and sound in 2' of water. Too bad I was standing and was in no danger. Normally I only wear the manual version, but that was on Wonderboy that day. Oh well...

Anyway I have a good bobbin (that's the part that disolves on contact of the water) so all I needed was the 33 gram cartridges. Took a bit of searching so I figured I would post the site here.

Beware of the other cartridges at they may be 3/8" vs. 1/2".

In case the product moves the site is http://www.gas-depot.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It gets squirrelly with shipping (they have to go ground) so depending Cabelas may be better, but in general they are 1/2 the cost.
