Win #2
My #AlpineStars #TechAir had a canister fault & was "recalled". I put it off, but finally rang, expecting "bring your receipt & leave it, could be a few weeks". I couldn't have been wronger "bring it in and we'll replace the canisters while you wait". 5 mins after walking in, I walked out with a fixed #AirVest. I also got to watch. Replacing canisters is incredibly easy - I could have done it, but watching helps.
AlpineStars Tech Air Off-road and Tech Air 7x have an issue where changing canisters may damage the connection.
Contact your seller for advice on free canister replacement.

Test 1
Both air vest and Halo jacket are heavy.
Removing the air vest's shoulder & elbow pads (using only the jacket's) improves fit & comfort considerably.
A stationary backwards somersault *does not trigger* the air bags - at least not in *enduro* mode... Stupid stand wasn't put down by stupid rider & stupid bike & stupid rider fell over π
I missed having a backpack, & should have fitted a bladder to the vest.
The jacket jacketed. More later.
