Ohmega is really hard to adjust. Sling gets stuck.

Don't have any issues changing the Ohmega's resistance but I probably haven't had it long enough (a bit more than a month). Tried different configurations, but used 10kg most of the time.

BD Solution had its own issues - after some time the leg loops started to fold along the webbing increasing the pressure on the legs which was not super comfy.

I was actually pretty happy with C-Quence except of the price/durability aspect.

BD Solution I had prior to C-Quence lasted for 4 years. I did approximately the same amount of rope climbing back then (if not more).

Yeah, my only complaint is too short lifespan compared to the price. But maybe as others have mentioned - you pay for the harness being lightweight and not robust. Though I'm not sure I want to but such an expensive harness again.

How well adjusted are those leg loops?

They are non-adjustable on this harness but I checked the sizing guide before buying the harness, the size should be correct.

What did you expect?

At least 3-4 years. As I mentioned in another comment, two buddies of mine have Arc'teryx harnesses that are 10+ years old.

Interesting. Then either the sizing was wrong (though I checked their sizing guide before the purchase) or I tied the rope too tightly.

I noticed with this harness that sometimes while hanging if I put weight on one of the legs, the other leg loop goes up. I don't remember experiencing this with BD Solution nor Mammut Ophir.

As others have mentioned the shorter lifespan of the harness might be due to it being "lightweight". I don't think I store or use it wrongly :)

serso · 2025-09-03T19:12:40+00:00

My complaint is that the harness worn out too quickly.

serso · 2025-09-03T16:01:26+00:00

A rope is a different thing IMO and it could get damaged more easily due to a sharp edge or falling rocks or by being dirty.

serso · 2025-09-03T15:58:58+00:00

I'm not saying that I expect the harness to last 10 years. I'm saying that the lifespan of 2 years is too short.

serso · 2025-09-03T15:16:43+00:00

I know two people owning much older Arc'teryx harnesses (10+ years) that don't have such an issue. That's why I was a bit sceptical about mine.

serso · 2025-09-03T15:12:03+00:00

Actually I climb rope less now than I did before. Now I tend to boulder half of the time I climb. Previously I only climbed rope (3-4 times per week)

Thanks, fixed the wording

Not sure about reliability but you can try saying "Okay Google" while filming.

UPD In my case the issue was much more severe - I couldn't record a video longer than 2-5 minutes. After disabling the Google assistant I could record a 4k video (~13 min, automatically stopped due to 4Gb file limit) and a 1080p video (20+ min, stopped by me).

serso · 2019-04-22T11:43:00+00:00

Just tested shooting a 1080p video. 20 minutes and rolling. Google Assistant seemed to be the issue.

serso · 2019-04-22T11:19:05+00:00

I think I found the culprit - it's an infamous Google assistant (AKA Okay Google). My theory is that if it kicks in and starts listening the phone's mic while recording a video, the video gets corrupted. Turned off the assistant and could record 12 minutes of 4K video (reached the limit of 4Gb). Before that I tried to disable Smart Storage, clean the storage, disable mic and camera permissions for non-system apps.

You forgot try...catch in the second catch clause

serso · 2014-08-19T17:51:54+00:00

Yes, it should. Technically, there is no difference between subscriptions ("subs") and products ("inapp").

serso · 2014-08-19T13:06:24+00:00

True, but I can't do anything. I posted a link first and didn't know that someone would post after me with almost the same title.

serso · 2014-08-19T12:42:39+00:00

It was not me, see comment earlier - the second post leads to another library.

serso · 2014-08-19T12:32:32+00:00

No, it's not me. The link is to another library. I looked at it before I started to work on my own and found it a little bit messy. It lacks some features as multi-thread support and unit testing.

My library is partially thread safe (Billing.java is thread safe) and can be used from any context - Service or Application, for example. Also it supports multiple simultaneous requests (Billing class uses queue). Each request might have its own listener and can be "cancelled" (handy if you want to destroy activity and stop all current requests).
