I didn't like the whale tail, so I taped a small magnet to the straw then glued a washer to the bottle. It works great this way... just slap the straw down and it stickers (I originally tried two magnets... they were too strong so I had to go with the magnet/washer combo).

I am glad to hear you are changing the bite vale, Mine only lasted about 6 months before it split. Any idea on an ETA?

Unfortunately no eta just yet, but will inform when they are available.

If you would like me to personally reach out to you when they are ready to ship, shoot me an email and I will make sure to let you know directly :)

Awesome idea, I will try this!

Candice,

Here's my set-up. I think I have it right ... but I have been known to screw up fairly simple installations before.

Had to check with my ops manager. The screw, washer and spacer are definitely correct, they are just in the wrong slot. We have very small pictures, so will try and improve these next time around to show it more.

What you will want to do is move the back hardware to the slot directly to the right of where the hardware is in the picture. Right now when you install the bottle, if you look underneath there is a very high chance the back screw is hitting the back of the bottle - it needs to go into the groove located underneath the bottle.
