Subject: Re: EE p-valve
Simon,
    I got mine before EE started putting the shrink tube on theirs and had =
a similar problem. One of the bayonet fittings broke so I epoxyed the two =
peices together and then did the shrink tube thing. It doesn't need to =
come apart. Periodically, run some vinegar through it to make sure the =
valves are clean.

I have been having problems with my Extreme Exposure balanced p-valve.  =
The final connection (where the discharge tube joins the round plastic =
block that is glued to the drysuit) twisted and became detached.  I =
removed the black plastic shrink wrap and re-connected it, but decided not =
to put wrap back on so I could inspect it before each dive. =20

I now find that the connection has a tendency to twist open, and come off, =
with all the nasty side effects you would expect.  I have seen the same =
problem with several other EE p-valves.  Does anybody have a suggested =
solution ?

Cheers,
