you can get the same thing by buying accessories. just buy the tubing and the airlock clam and it'll cost you a quarter of the price botticelli charger

Come on girls! You can make your own airlock for about the price of a coffee - all these ready-made ones look a bit more professional but are no better, it's just people cashing in on the fact the materials to make an airlock is dirt cheap and it costs about 5 mins to assemble. I also have the Noogleberry airlock and although it works fine it's not worth spending the money. If you can't manage to cut a tube into three and jam a valve in one end then just buy a bulldog clip!

My smartbox worked for the first two cycles, but died on the third. I refuse to spend $350 or whatever it is to get it fixed. I suck the air out myself, bend the tubing over and fasten it with my daughter's hair elastic. Brava would be irritated I am sure! I almost ordered the Boticelli airlock system from ebay but decided to try my method first and it is working great for me. I get MUCH better swelling from it than I ever did from the smartbox.
