Thanks, Jimmy, for a fair and accurate review. I've said this before: You do the best, most in-depth reviews in the business.

Here's the story on the rubber straps: We started with a nice-looking black one, but no matter what we did it was too stretchy and the batteries fell out. So we switched to a beautiful shiney black neoprene which held the batteries well but tore in five runs where the nut & washer hold it in. I cut the ugly brown ones out one at a time on Mom's kitchen table and they work.

Our production quantities are too small to pay for a die to have them done properly. Although, after your review...
