Greenforce owners - help me!
Hey all,
How do you greenforce flexi 2 owners go about attaching your battery pack to your harness, a la DIR/Hogarthian style on the right hand side waist?
It doesn't come with a sleeve or anything to attach to the harness, the only thing i can think of is using 2 hose clamps and clamping a bit of webbing to the battery pack.

Any advice and/or stirring welcome

Considering that is exactly how Halcyon and Salvo do it it should be fine. I had issues with a Metalsub battery tank as it had fixings for the pony clamp that got in the way somewhat but webbing and hose clamps work a treat.

In fact Greenforce do their own pouch for the FII, problem is it can fall out of said pouch if you arn't very careful of how you tie the neck of the pouch up.
Clamps and webbing is the best bet.

I use a greenforce pouch. Just tighten the drawstring once the battery pack is inside and it won't fall out.

As ive gone over to twins I have used my old CD pony clamp. A couple of nice shiny 316 hose clips all sorted. Pony clamp attached to Cylinder with a Camband. Sounds a bodge but works really well. PS Plenty on insulation tape wound around battery pack before i fitted the hose clips.

HTH

If you want a cheap pouch quickly... try a neoprene pencil case from Tescos... they work a treat.
