I have a peepee tube....i need coffee in the mornings with predictable results 45 mins later. Its not an entirely "watertight" process so I plan to add adult diapers for the longer legs required to get me to miami..... By the way id like see see designs for relief tubes....perhaps offline as this is a family show. I have a 10 gal turtlepack bladder in cradle that is strapped to the tie bar. The fuel is fed to the tank via a facet pump. I made a push button operating switch per buds comments. I transferred the fuel every 20 mins, you can feel the pump operating and you can see the fuel rising up the cobra. The pump feels different when sucking air and when the fuel in the bladder is expended....
