Put them in the freezer for a few days, put them in the cylinder while they're still cold and they work like new.

they are tab`s, you drop into your air cylinder, once activated, they expand air, so, instead of having to `dive bottle` fill your res` or hand pump-
instant air in a jiffy :D - simples - as long as you-
a- buy them from this forum
b- pay attention as to whether they are in date or out of
c- hot or cold depending on who`s advice you take after purchasing said items
but, their not available all the time, batches are a rare find & disappear usually to the `in crowd` quickly!
quite straightforward really!

edit- despite site moderators extensive investigations, no one knows why Raj & TT seem to have the only UK import licence for said tabs, & they only let go the ones that are on or near their expiry date, so caution is advised b4 purchasing from who are (in all honesty - AAOC members or not-)
a couple of dodgy characters :roll:
