Funk Fighter Travel Bag | Carbon Lined, 11 x 3.75 x 6.75 in

Where a Funk Fighter Travel Bag Actually Leaks Every carbon lined bag has the same weak point and it is not the fabric. A zipper is a line of interlocking teeth with an air path running along it. On most bags that line sits outside the lining entirely. This one carries an additional layer of carbon underneath the zipper so air leaving through that seam still passes through media on the way out. That is the detail worth paying for, and it is the reason two bags with identical linings perform differently. The main compartment is a single zipped space rather than a set of pockets, which keeps the lining continuous around whatever is inside. A handle sits on the side. The body measures eleven by three and three quarter by six and three quarter inches. That puts it in the small carry category rather than a holdall. How Activated Carbon Works and When to Refresh It Carbon does not destroy anything. It adsorbs, meaning odour molecules stick to an enormous internal pore surface and stay there. A given weight of carbon holds a finite quantity before those sites are occupied. That is why any carbon product fades rather than failing suddenly. There is a refresh routine for exactly that reason. Put the bag in a tumble dryer on low for a few minutes. That moves the carbon within the lining and exposes surface not previously in contact with the air. Do it before performance drops rather than after. Two habits help the lining last. Do not overpack, because compressing the lining flat reduces the contact area air has to travel across. Keep the bag closed when it is not in use, since a bag left open works its way through its capacity on nothing at all. Key Features Lining: Carbon through the body of the bag Zipper: A second carbon layer runs beneath the zip line Why that matters: The zip seam is where a carbon bag normally leaks Compartment: One main zipped space, keeping the lining continuous Handle: Fitted to the side of the bag Size: Eleven by three and three quarter by six and three quarter inches How carbon works: It adsorbs onto pore surface and has a finite capacity Refresh: A few minutes in a tumble dryer on low Timing: Refresh before performance drops rather than after Care: Do not overpack, and keep it closed when it is not in use Technical Specifications Specification Value SKU 886002 Brand Funk Fighter Product Travel Bag Dimensions 11 x 3.75 x 6.75 in Lining Activated carbon Zip protection Extra carbon layer beneath the zipper Compartments One main zipped compartment Handle Side mounted Refresh method Tumble dryer on low for a few minutes Capacity note Carbon adsorbs and has a finite capacity before it needs refreshing
