Gear Keeper Compact Console Retractor-Secure Console in Chest Area-2 Mounting Options-Made in USA

Love it. I use it to hold my gages. The spring is strong enough that their weight doesn't pull the unit, keeping them out of the way until I want to look at them.

This is a well made piece of kit.

Quality product

Worth buying! Strong pull for computers... Would buy again.

Great upgrade to my BCD accessories.

This Gearkeeper can be mounted on your BC two different ways, a threaded pin or a snap clip. It also has two ways, a split ring or a lanyard, to attach your scuba device to the retractable line. The provided hardware allows flexibility to where the Gearkeeper is placed on your BC and what you may attach to the retractable line. I use the Gearkeeper to hold a mini flashlight but it also can hold a computer console to prevent unwanted dangling. Basically the Gearkeeper streamlines the positions of your equipment on your BC and allows for easy access when that piece of equipment is needed.

My wife and I clip these to our BCDs to retract our guage consoles. We've been on several dives and they work great.

24 ounces is way too much tension for a scuba console. When you let it go, your console is going to slingshot to the next zip code. Also, I suspect that if you use the pin mount, that much pressure will shred whatever you have it mounted to. The pin mount could not be screwed in very far before it started moaning in agony. Defective? I'll send it back and try out the 9lb, 32 inch version.
