‘Keeper’ lanyard adjuster

Saw this on Facebook:

Looks like it would be quick to retrieve slack in lanyard.

Thoughts?

Not on Facebook, any other ways to see it?

I’m not on FB either but I can still see 6 videos on that link.

Yup 6 videos that won't play for us anti-social ( at least anti-facebook) people.

Still can't watch the videos.

Thanks for the links.
Looks interesting.
Would like to see it in action though.

Some of the videos would not play. Could not really tell what is going on or how this thing actually works, but looks intriguing.

Yes he may have blocked outside Facebook. Will msg him.

I was able to see some of the videos. He does a great job of demonstrating its shape and movement but a terrible job at explaining why anyone would want one on their lanyard.

here are two screenshots

Well I'll repeat, I feel like I am intimately acquainted with how it attaches to a harness and its different forms and construction. But what's it doing for the user and how is it doing it?

What's the sales pitch?

It took some searching but here is a video of it in use. Hopefully it works for you guys not on Facebook



Edit: here is the same video on YouTube.

Cool, that worked. Interesting idea.

I recorded part of one of his videos and put it on YouTube. It’s a lanyard organizer essentially. I don’t like climbing with my lanyard in a bag and hate dragging my tail around so I think it’s pretty cool. Would probably work well to manage your tail when on spurs if your worried about gaffing you’re line And bad at managing it. But he doesn’t advertise it for that purpose.

Not bad but I still can't see how it connects to harness

 

[Ronhayden]

It slips on and has a set screw like the transporter or dmm’s

 

[Chaplain242]

Set screw holds bracket to harness, the adjuster slips on but has to be bent towards the body before lifting up to release. It also has a magnet to hold it as a double security feature...

 

[Chaplain242]

It has a matching bracket/post that it slips over. The post attaches like a vault to the harness

It seems to be a solution looking for a problem, and in the end the solution is causing problems that didn't exist before the solution?

Create it and make them feel like they can't live without it. There seems to be way too much of this going on in this gear obsessed industry, me thinks.
