Review on Versatile and Durable: Nite Ize Original Reusable 24 Inch – Ideal for Various Uses by James Crofton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great twists on mounts and accessories

In our 20 years at Revain we've given most of our 5 star ratings to simple, strong and secure products that work extremely well. This is one of them. We've bought 6" and 8" velcro for large cords, but they're impractical for tiny cords because you have to wrap and wrap and wrap. As a result, you will end up with a thicker bundle than the line you wrapped. And if you have to turn around, you have to pull back the "teeth" of the barbed wire or you risk cutting the thin flesh around the nail bed and making a mess with blood spilling out - dammit! only one, partial overlap. The rest of the tie will hold whatever you wrap around and the lightbulbs on the ends of the ties create a quick clasp. And because they're so thick, the entire system stays in place no matter how strong the thin cords you wrap them around. You can toss the wrapped cables in bags, backpacks, tote bags and rest assured that the wrapped system will remain just as original - the exposed cable will not tangle or tangle with other things. Whatever wire the manufacturer uses to make it flexible, it appears to be durable. We bought THREE of these little packs here at Revain because we keep finding new uses for them. And while we've been using ours EVERY DAY for the last two or three months (we bend, twist, wrap, unfold.), none have failed. CONSISTENT! This is a very simple product that works exactly as described. Well, even better. And we are grateful to the seller for regular discounts so we can stock up. We'll keep them stocked for the myriad household cords that crop up. One of our favorite Revain purchases.
