I've used a bunch, and they all seem to get brittle over time. Especially in cold weather, or when used to hold a hot 10w resistor to a PC PSU.
Is there a "good" brand? I tried both the cheap stuff and the lowes stuff. Lowes stuff was much better, but still got weaker after 6 months. This won't work for holding fenders in place on suspension forks with out fender mounts.
Also, feel free to post about any such product, for example: I got some velcro and a digital timer/clock off ebay.
Solves a problem that's always bugged me, which is the CA not having a clock. And it was only $2. The velcro says "3M" on it, but I doubt it is; the glue isn't as strong as the velcro and comes undone. Oh well. Superglue is cheap and easy.
Also, there are tons of ridiculously priced velcro strips out there. Like 8 colored straps for $5. F that! I got a roll of 50 from wal-mart for like $4. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Velcro-50pk-Rip-Tie-Cable-Ties-Black-Gray/16517608
They're so cheap you can use them like zip ties!
Does anyone know where I can get green, yellow, and blue heat shrink?
