I hate the way my kill switch attaches to my life jacket. Has anyone found something that is easier to connect/disconnect that won't take away from the safety factor?

I used a tiny carbiner when the plastic clip broke on one of my previous lanyards. Test any connection multiple times/ways. Failure isn't an option!

I removed the plastic hook from my lanyard and replaced with a small metal carabiner. Much easier and probably just as secure.

I loop mine around my wrist.

Easiest and best thing ever.



It's a wristband lanyard used on a jet ski.

My lifejacket had a D-ring. I attach it to that.

Same here.

I use 2 snap lock carabiners. One on the D-Ring on my vest and the other on the kill switch cord. Fast and easy.

I put a hook for a dog collar on mine (the double latch one)

My boat dies if I let off the gas....don't need a kill switch to complicate things.

I loop mine around my wrist as well

lowes or home depot, take off the plastic thing and put your kill switch thing on.

I put one on my inflatable due to being tired of the lanyard being a pita.

Mine stays hooked to the lifejacket all day. I take the jacket off when I stop so its not inconvenient.

Pick up the jacket and put it on. Sit down and start the motor. Go.

Repeat as necessary.

X2, but I do like the wrist strap idea..

Hop,

Inspect the cord and reel regularly. It rubs on the housing and frays easily. I snapped two of them just using it as a badge holder reaching to the readers.
