F75 arm strap

[erikk]

Was out today and the temp was 92 with hunidity about the same. With all the sweat the arm cuff was sliding all over the place. So, like all my other detectors i decieded to fix the problem. Wife got a knee strap at WW and cut the slots with a dremel.Fixed for $6.47

Looks good. I just squeeze the "ears" tighter.

Yes but you are in MY. Try 80-85% humidity when you are sweating pig the foam gets slimy and slippery. Easier for me to just strap it and be done with it

I dunno.

Look at the daily figures for June hereabouts. I make it 84% average high humidity, and it's been one of the driest June's on record. Last year June's avg high humidity was 89.3% Ugh.

If there's a place more humid than Binghamton, NY in summer it's in a rain forest or underwater.

We had 8% relative humidity earlier in the week. Got Thunderstorms building now though.

Nice mod. Been thinking about a arm cuff strap for mine too, except I was looking at the Tesoro route.
