I saw these products on eBay. They are rubber screws you would screw into a puncture hole in your tire, they are meant to replace the use of plugs. Installation requires no tools other than a screw driver. Do you think they will work as well as plugs or patches?
This is a video demonstrating the product, I don't know why it is called Vacuum Tire Repair Nail Kit, it might be a translation from Chinese into English.

eBay sellers of the 'Tire Repair Screw' product:
1. Remove screw
2. Insert different screw

I once had a screw in my tire, I reflated my tire and drove 5 mi to a tire shop. My tire pressure system registered an acceptable tire pressure all the way to the tire shop. Being a good little boy I paid for a professional installation of a mushroom patch, which is why I drove that far. It is not obvious to me that these things can't work.
Project Farm youtube channel reviewed tire repair kits, Dynaplug and grand pitstop were non traditional methods.

that's what I'm saying. If a screw holds pressure then just leave it in there. Silly product.
The rubber screw they are selling are, if I understand it right, supposed to be a permanent solution.
a patch is a permanent solution
I would not waste my money on this junk. I've been using the adhesive tire plugs for forty years with not one failure.
