What do you call it and where can I buy?

[burnsfamily382]

the little rubber cap attached to your power inflator that covers the bcd hose attachment when it is not connected to your low pressure hose?

thanks

scubapro calls it an Inlet Cover, any dive shop should be able to get them for you.

What do you call the little rubber cap attached to your power inflator...

"unnecessary"

well Divers Direct are my lds and they didn't know what it was called or how to get one?

i have searched the websites of leisurepro, scuba.com and scubatoys.....without success.

Now that you've said it, I've just checked, none of my wings has it, they don't come with it - less floaty material I guess.

Wasn't paying attention to that at all and it seems I should continue doing so...

Are you looking for the thing that caps alternate inflator regs?

These caps are quite common when the inflator is also an alternate air source. In this case, the protect the regulator internals.

am going to try to upload a photo of it for clarity. it is the rubber cap on the connector to the power inflator. both mine and my daughters bcd have them, my son's doesn't. seems to me it should have one to keep sand/salt/dirt out of there?

In that case I would go with RJP's answer.
