Teufelberger CE lanyard - Im struggling with it

[born2trot]

Hello all , purchased the said item above last week and i just got a chance there to try it out . Well imo it is unfit for purpose as a work positioning lanyard . The distel will not bite the lanyard .. it does EVENTUALLY and only when the lanyard is near horizontal . It is actually dangerous imo .

 

It does say in the small print in the manual only to be used at WAIST HEIGHT ! Are they for real ?? Cant remember any vendors pointing this out ?

 

Its a costly piece of CARP !! Dont buy one at all costs :thumbdown:

Which other part of your body were you considering fastening a work positioning lanyard to,

 

apart from your waist.

Did you stop to consider that it might just need tweaking before condemning it on a public forum and causing possible harm to a companies reputation?? I doubt you would be too happy if someone wrote 'dont use borntotrot at any cost'

What you trying to imply ??

[Mark Bolam]

It looks great to me.

 

I can't work out what it's for, or why you would need one, but it looks great.
