Lifejacket Capsules

Need to replace a couple of outdated capsules on crewsaver LJs but can only find kits complete with gas cylinders and my cylinders are fine. Seem to remember this problem before so guess nothing's changed. Anyone know if you can buy just the capsules?

Ta.

Yes, that's the problem, seem to be building a nice stock of cylinders and trying to avoid buying any more!

look at Baltic Lifejackets - depending on your model, if it's the complete screw on Thingy you need to buy crewsaver, contact colsalt they are main service agent.

I know Mustang Survival sells just the bobbins; sureley the European companies do the same?

Might be a good idea to contact the manufacturer and see if they package the bobbins separately for retail sale.

Thanks all for your suggestions. Should be able to get a result now. I knew the site would come up trumps!

Thanks. Capsules on their own aren't as cheap as I'd hoped! Maybe better to carry on accumulating gas cylinders.
