alternative to supplied bands?

[sORe-EyEz]

was thinking of other materials just in case those supplied need replacing...

1) would gym bands of certain elasticity cut to size fit the bill?

2) polyester straps?

no glues, cements please. i hope this thread would be useful as a resource thread.

any1? :candle:

Fabric store. Get heavest elastic webbing they have in the correct width (usually 1 inch). Usually available in darker colors such as navy and black. Usually not quite as heavy but it works. I find that the elastic in the webbing in most headlamps slowly but very surely loses its elasticity. I don't know why this is. The elastic webbing that I have used as replacements doesn't seem to do this nearly as badly.

i think the floppy skull cap may work too. but caps as in headlamp over the cap?

elastic webbing maybe yet another useful replacement. :thumbsup:
