Evan;
I'd be happy to send you some. I'm sure I have lots.
I'm trying to mount one in the bottom of a store bought nylon pvc coated dry bag so I can purge the air out after filling with stuff.
Not much luck so far.
Email me an address and I'll send you some in an envelope.
If I can't fit a valve to a dry bag then I will have to build from scratch with heat seal nylon which I don't have yet. I think there is a supplier in Calgary.
