    Hi,
    First time here. Anyone know where can I find a replacement gasket for my one of my G2 Fat Boys? Only purchased last October and noticed its broken.

    thanks!

    If some kind of oil or solvent got onto it, that might degrade the rubber. I would contact customer support. If for some reason they aren't able to send you one, they'll probably be able to tell you the correct size. OTOH, you can probably find a correctly sized one (it's called an O-ring ) by taking your fixture to your local hardware store or plumbing supply. Shouldn't be more than a dollar or so, if that. To keep my fixtures' lamp covers from getting stuck, I use a water base lubricant like ky jelly.

    Thank you! Ive purchased similar items for other projects but wasnt sure of the size, requirements, etc. Good idea to contact customer service. I'll try that before heading to the hardware store.

    Apologies. fat boy gasket.jpg I just took a look at the fixture and I might have misspoken. If that little rubber ring looks like the one in the photo, it is not an O-ring per se and it might or might not be something you can easily get from the hardware store. VOLT customer service will confirm this and may send you one for free or at a nominal cost. Apologies for causing any confusion.
