Can you close or seal the pump when you need to travel with it so it doesn't spill?

I ordered the smallest jar (2.0 oz or so, I believe) and it actually came with a flip cap. Those are easy to seal for travel with a small strip of duct/duck tape. Not sure about the locking mechanisms available on the larger bottles/bottles with pumps, though my experience is a bit of tape will seal those also.

Haven't tried. It is a standard pump like any lotion you buy. It's large for travel. I fill a 2 oz bottle for travel.

Yes the pump is one you twist one direction to open and the other way to close.

No. I would recommend putting the bottle in a sealed ziplock and laying it horizontally in a travel bag. Make sure there are no items on the side of the bottle that could push the pump down. If it does happen, at least the bottle is in a bag to prevent leakage.

Possibly get liquid in the sealing compartment. Be sure it is completely clean and dry

Removing the stopper will keep it from sealing completely, so be careful that it is in a place that it will not tilt or be knocked over.

You can definitely leave it and not worry about leaking. Screw the lid on properly though!

Possibly. There's not a lot of moving parts. I bought it to fix a leak. But if the seal is worn., it might also prevent it from pumping. Sure beats a new dispenser.

Great question...we haven't yet! We filled it up at a gas station. I think there is a way to let air out using those pumps if you overfill...sorry not more helpful!

There is no seal on this lid.. Didnt have a problem with it but it makes it not so easy for transport when full

Yes, probably. the pump is a centrifugal pump which does not seal when it's not operating so fluid drips out unless the outlet is higher than the level of fluid in the tank. Unless the sprayers seal below a certain pressure, fluid will drip out of them if they're below the tank.

Correct it does not completely close/seal. There is a small opening to pour. Hope that helps.

You can't change the intensity of the pump action, but you can stop it at any point in manual mode by pressing seal . This would effectively reduce the amount of vacuum in the bag.

I forgot to mention that I used silicone to seal up the small pour spout. I didn't want that little thing to flip open and spill fuel.

I agree with the other answer about folding the longer side down to seal, but to be honest I never make any effort to seal mine and still don't have any problems. Just be careful about how far you submerge it.

I think That is only for travel purposes if you don't want the cup to leak. I just discarded that because even in the diaper bag while we are traveling only a small amount of water has ever escaped.

I would use some type of silicone sealant to prevent drips and spills. It's tight, but not a waterproof seal

I traveled with this in my luggage during the summer and it did leak a little bit. Store in a zip lock baggie

This item does not use a pump. It uses a suction. If you will be staying at a hotel or motel, or are just having a meeting at one or an office building, and immediately returning, maybe you could see if one of the cleaning people (they use vacuums) has a hose attachment and you could use it. You will need something with enough strength that will pull the air out to compress the holders and it should take a very short time to do it. Now, if you really get into a bind, the only thing left would be to sit or stand on the filled bag, forcing the air out and screwing the closure tight when you think most of the air is out and the bag and contents are "squashed" as small as it can get. I THINK I know what you mean, reversing a pump to pull OUT air, but I have no idea of one like that. Maybe including in your luggage a small, strong hand held vacuum with a removable tip, you could plug in, even in a car lighter receptacle on the way to the plane (or one just using a charged battery) before boarding. I hope the methods I offered above might help you. Have s safe flight.

Not really. When you pull out the old one, the fluid will pour out. You can put a pan underneath to prevent from a messy spill. You can drain some to lessened the spill, either way, it's going to be messy.
