They are cheap... $15 for a set. A set of two will hold up my big sunblaze t5x8 array which weighs 23 lbs.
Just tossing out a word of caution to you.

Those puppies have been around for a good bit, and there are a few different flavors, some clearly superior.
If you are using these alone, without a safety, remain very aware of the amount of force required to adjust the light. If you start to feel any inconsistency in resistance, delegate it to another, less critical use.

When the friction material wears enough, gravity wins. I've seen some failures. <shudder> Not pretty.

I use them to support the heavier colas. :thumbsup: They're handy little items for sure.



Personal preference for me is chain and carabiner. Crude,... but effective.
