Yeah, they fail in hot weather, possibly due to the glue instead of vulcanizing solution used in traditional patches.

Yeah for sure. The Park ones also seem to have a limited life in this pissingwetchillyass country too though. Most of mine have eventually blistered and cracked through and had to be replaced with a proper patch. Still, the convenience of them means I'll keep using them on the road for the most part.
hippy
Well you were the one that said they eventually failed. Are we talking hours, days, weeks, months, years later?
I've found the Park ones to be a bit sketch in hot weather too (and damp forests, waves at McKenzie Pass though that ended up being a rim tape issue)
