I had a set of the gray cuffs a few years back, bought them from JWC when they were still around. I think I actually still have one left. IMO they sucked and were an inferior product. not to say that cool cuffs are
superior because IMO they could be much better than what they are.
joe, if you read this, everyone thinks your a dipshit, EVERYONE can't be wrong. anyways now thats out of the way, here is my take on cool cuffs, joe's first cuffs had thin almost sharp ridges on the outside they were only about 1/10" of an inch wide. the also had NO latch, these were the very best cuffs I have ever used, infact if anyone knows of any new ones left over I would pay more than the price of the current new ones for them. They fit well enough to NOT need the latch they also don't leak. I have since bought 2 entire new sets with the latches, the latest ones and outfitted 2 sets of hoses with them, I was so disappointed by them, I took the old ones, the very first set I bought with the thin ridges, took the new ones off and put them on my backup unit, and still use them on my primary unit to this day, as even these old beat up cuffs still work better than the ones with a latch and the rounded wide ridges on the outside.
I sure wish someone would study joes patent, figure a way around it and make a better product, knowing joe, the patent probably isn't written all that well. I would even support interlink in such an effort in fact all past transgressions related to your past behavior in this regard would be forgiven. greenie, lisa, might as well say F' it and start making cuffs too, remember the reasons for making
glides, the same situation is what we have with the cuffs.
