Vacuum packing is such a worthwhile effort👍👍
I buy my bags through Banggood Chinese site - way cheaper!
That's not normal. My Innovation goes for hours but then I fill the bags then seal them rather than fill a heap and seal a heap. What are you doing Roy?

Islander, how did you get on? As others have said bags are cheaper on line, there is an on line NZ supplier that's pretty good too but forgot their name.

 Im pretty sure the heat thing is on the tranformers inside to the heat strips, not the actual heat strips.
 Thu keeping them clean certainly makes a difference in reliable seals.
