Just saw a tetherspout accessory on their website. Wondering if anyone has an opinion on how well this works. I'm thinking of getting a BA-28. Maybe this could make it secure.
Wow! I have never heard of this before. I posted in another thread about getting a PA but I think this is a much more appealing option and just as secure.
I am still reading up myself, but from what I have read it gets pretty easy with practice. There are some who are saying they have successfully worn one for weeks. For that length of time, I am planning to go through a full sterilization before insertion. I am also reading that sizing is critical. They sell sizing sounds that I think I am going to have to buy. The original TetherSpout creator also sells the sounds. In looking over his website, what he has in stock can be spotty, but it looks like it is generally cheaper and with more options. I will probably buy my stuff from him. An added benefit of his retainers is that they are 410 stainless which is attracted to magnets. This could help retrieve a stuck retainer should that be necessary. I have also figured out that cages similar to the HBS024 on badassworkroom.com have a hole at the tip exactly the right size for a 6mm spout. I will probably switch over to that style cage and run my spout through the tip for complete security. That is the current plan anyway.
Without knowing anything about the original tetherspout maker, having bought devices from Badass, Youming makes very high quality devices, so I’d expect his spouts to be equally high quality. You gotta hand it to him, he keeps on adding new devices and features.
I have been weighing whether to buy from Badass since I have also purchased from there before, but I don't know what sizes I need and the sizing options are a lot more limited than from TetherSpout. I am not in a huge hurry so I am inclined to wait for stock to replenish at TS and get their sets. It looks as though I am going to start with just a sizing sound.
I’ve been watching the original TS site for some time, and my sense is that he is no longer making new items, just selling off inventory already made. I look every few months and the available items list is smaller and smaller. But I did purchase the sizing sounds from TS two years ago and it arrived promptly and was very good quality. So as of two years ago he was responsive to orders.
