I got the twofish cycloblock which uses thicker, reinforced webbing velcro straps and haven't had a problem. Have any of the lockblock and/or clone users also had this problem?
I have been using the clones all the way, no problems. I have never seen a velcro snap or break. I just makes sure I pulled the velcro for a real tight fit around the light. Just speaking for myself, and I am crazy about my lights too, the clones cost about 1/8th the price of the real thing, and for sure the real thing isn't 8 times better than the clone..
