I have the pelican 2c for backup lights and I find a 1 1/2 inch split ring works better than rubber as it doesnt need the webbing to be undone, and it doesnt break.

I like the 2" tubes - they fit tight enough on the webbing so that they don't slip around when not in use but have enough give to them to be easy to slip the light back in place. Since used tubes are destroyed at most shops and pieces are available for free, why not pick up a few hunks of the three sizes (1.75", 2.0", 2.25") and load all of them on your webbing for a trial run? Those that you decide you don't like best can be removed easily enough with a knife...Quarrior:Hi,
Here's an interesting one. When going to Wal-mart or whereever to buy an inner tube to cut up and make bungees to hold things like lights in place, what size inner tube do you buy? The one I bought does not strech far enough to work well.
That shot isn't quite right.diveh3:You need to undo your webbing to slide bands on.

Because anybody can buy bungee?kidspot:Why not use 3/16 or 1/4 bungee cord instead of rubber bike tubes? Then you can just tie them on instead of rethreading the entire harness. If one breakes, just tie a new on on.
Or is there a good reason to use the rubber inner-tubes instead?
