I really like the autopod50, but am getting very concerned about being unable to source any of the little blue rubber bung spares.

It's great I can buy replacement pods, but even they don't come with any extra bungs; which is the only thing breaking on a fairly regular basis.

At some point I will have to stop using the autopod50. I've 3 of the devices, 2 spare pods but clearly not enough bungs to keep the pod going I do use.

Are there any plans to produce and sell these as a stand alone item and ideally in a minimum of 10 per packet?

The weak point on the bung is the bit I grab to lift the bung to refill the pod, every time that breaks off its another bung in the bin and a step closer to being unable to ever use it again. It's a shame as this is the only part people will need lots of.
 
Hey if you're stuck I have the device and never used the spares it came with if you needed some I'm happy to send the baggy over to you:)

@Sam Andrews thanks for the offer. I'm ok for now but my spares won't last forever.

I had hoped Freemax would have made the spares available to buy as without the bung the whole device is unusable, which is a shame as it's the only kit I've used since the gold one was delivered.
 
@andyroo it's not the pod part I will need, I've got 5 in total of them and it would get very expensive and wasteful having to keep disposing of a perfectly good pod just because the bung broke every few months.

It's the little blue rubber filler bung. Each complete kit comes with spare o-rings and 2 spare bungs. These are not available to buy nor is there another spares kit when the pod is purchased.

Each time it breaks, it's in exactly the same place.

Thanks @DeeDee aka (Pod Queen) that's a great help, as I'm not the only member with these.

Thats what happened to mine on day one. Had to buy a pod and that one still good as new. You can use a pin to force it up but that means you can only use it indoors.

Even then I only got the rest of the day out of it, that section became unstable and started to stretch / snap.
