Thanks! I will have to check my drain plug. I haven't noticed the edges, but I haven't really checked it out either. I like the cushion. I will have to investigate that further, Only been out a handful of time, but I LOVE my AirVolution!
Hi again. If you have any links or names for the blue honeycomb "seat" you use and the make of shoes that would be great, I couldn't quite catch it. Thanks!

I use a used roll around suitcase instead of a big tote. I also use a collapsible tote the fits in the forward compartment for last minute small stuff. I launch from a tall dock by typing a line fore and aft to lower and raise it.
Hi, interesting overview, thank you for producing it, some good tips in there. I was particularly interested in the iRocker pump, shame it doesn't come with a battery! I checked it out and the pump plus battery combination comes in at £220 which seems like a lot of dough but good to be able to set the required psi. Looking in more detail at the battery pack the lithium battery capacity is just 4000mAh so only about enough stored power to charge a mobile telephone twice which again surprised me. Have you managed to fully inflate the Advanced Elements AirVolution 2 Kayak from the battery pack alone? To be honest, I'd be quite surprised if it would do it. Thanks.
Yes, in fact I’ve pumped up both chambers in 2 boats on one charge. However we usually end up manually pumping one chamber whilst the electric pump is working on the other. With a little effort you can beat the electric pump.
@@skillsmydadtaughtme880 Great. So there are just 2 chambers to inflate. From the images, it looked like there were 4 valve locations, what are the other 2 "ports" that look like valves, situated opposite?
Great video with lots of helpful information! Thank you so much. I'm now a new subscriber!
Great! Thank you!
Very good review. You deserve more views!
Ha ha oh thank you.
Excellent video. So helpful! Thank you.
Glad you liked it!

The cushion is awesome!

Cool! After the boat is in the water, you’re still able to easily lower yourself in? That sounds like it could be a challenge.
@@skillsmydadtaughtme880 you would have to try it since we all have different strength.
Good point

@@PedalBikerUK correct, each boat only has 2 chambers. The other valves you're seeing are the emergency blow-off valves in case it gets over inflated.
@@jasonbarker9725 Thanks, understood 👍
I was hoping you would demonstrate how to use the battery powered air pump it comes with. I can’t figure out how it connects.
Christina I just shot another video that might help you... ua-cam.com/video/IgO_LpE-i5s/v-deo.html
That’s like a cross between a kayak and a paddle board the width of it is quite something
Yeah they’re pretty wide compared to others. Makes them so stable it’s almost impossible to tip them over unless you’re really trying.
I bail my AirVolution with a car wash sponge.
