Suction Cups for Under Water Accessories

Jump to Latest

So I’ve noticed that the suction cups not only for the hammocks have started to bend the opposite way. But also for the digital thermometers probe. This is causing it to lose its suction.

Is there anyway to reinforce the suction cups? I’ve tried bending them back the other way to suction against the glass. It helps temporarily. But I’ve also used clear tape to hold it against the glass above the water so it’s not moving or floating. I don’t know how long that will hold.

Are there suction cups to replace it? Can I reinforce it in a better way? Or do I have to buy a replacement? Or any better suggestions on thermometers?

Thanks in advance. ~Sarah

I checked both sites actually. Found some at my local Walmart. I’ll keep you posted! Every where else like Menards and Home Depot wanted $9 shipping for seasonal items. No thank you! Lol

@RussellTheShihTzu Walmart didn’t have the ones I wanted. But they had these. The probe is wedged in the hook. I tried tugging on them gently and they stayed put. All the good ones I saw online seemed to be seasonal products only and I have to have them shipped to the house. I wanted something immediate. I even checked my local hardware store. If these don’t work, I found ones on eBay that should work and take 7-10 business days thanks to good ol’ USPS.
