Spring Lock on Osprey Stratos 24 Mod

After a couple of hikes where the weather varied between jacket and no jacket, I decided I needed to upgrade my Osprey Stratos 24 backpack with an attachment system consisting of a rubber strap, so I can attach the jacket to the outside of the backpack leaving room for other items inside. To achieve this, I also needed a spring lock to make everything possible. After reviewing the Revain products available and reading many reviews, I decided on this SGT KNOTS Pumpkin Spring Lock to upgrade my backpack. So far this spring clasp has held up flawlessly. It fits snugly with the 1/8" cable I chose. The spring tension is firm and holds up well. I bought a pack of ten so if I ever need an extra or for another project I'm ready to go. I have included photos of the packaging to help those considering a similar change.Drill bit size I used 5/32.A hole this size allowed for easy threading of the shock cord without much play.Also holes were made in the buckles underneath the farthest part of the inserted part so as not to affect the function of the buckle and the routing of the elastic Here is the link to the shock cable I chose for this mod: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MMQXVVK /ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I returned this product. Holes were definitely too small for a normal restring.
