Another stupid bungee question...

[mafi]

Like some others mentioned here, I also had no problems with such valves when I got them on a liveaboard. I must admit, though, that I was skeptical at first.

I actually found it easier to loop the bungy than with my long extension ports.

How thick are the bungys do you use? I can imagine thicker bungys could roll over from the right place more easily.

Yes.
Same for me. No problem at all with the valve from the picture you posted.

I have also been wondering about the same thing the OP posted. It's not always possible to use your own tanks etc. I like the idea of putting the bungee over the valve as an alternative.

To the above though, what thickness bungee are you using? As it makes sense what you say, that a thinner bungee could work. Would be keen to try.
