This is an inexpensive little thing, but it comes in handy when you want to tie up some extra slack of cables and attach it to a light stand, tripod, grip arm, etc. I use either the zip tie or carabiner end to hold the cables depending on how I need to attach it to something. You don't just have to use the carabiner as the attach point.

Could Be Better
I use these with a location sound kit to hang cables from my mixer bag. The Velcro is very thin, making one-handed operation difficult. The Velcro also frays & falls apart very quick...Read complete review
I use these with a location sound kit to hang cables from my mixer bag. The Velcro is very thin, making one-handed operation difficult. The Velcro also frays & falls apart very quickly, though you're still left with otherwise useful carabiners.
This Rip-Tie product is not worth purchasing unless just for the carabiners.
The PortaBrace Piggin String is a much better option. The Velcro on the Piggin String is thick & has structure allowing easy one-handed operation.

Comments about Rip-Tie Carabiner CableCarrier 1.0x6.0" (Black 2 Pack):
This is a fantastic product. I use them for multiple uses, not just cables. As a location sound mixer I use them for the following:
- To hang my headphones from the right side of my audio bag during breaks where there isn't enough time to put the audio bag down and power down.
- To hang cable for my boom pole off of the left side of my bag.
- To give to a boom operator to take up slack for the XLR and the headphone cable depending on what cables are in use.
- To hang small items from my backpack while traveling to and from shoots.
It is important to note that the velcro on these units is quite sturdy. I do not know why other people are reviewing the velcro as weak. I hang my entire boom pole bag (soft case) from this carabiner (attached to my backpack) and it works great. I have been to many projects without even one of these failing.

We have dozens of cables and almost all of them are held together using these clips. They have helped us organize our wall of cables in our equipment room.
I highly recommend.

We use these at a university for our peerless video monitor carts to hold cables off of the ground in transit. They are awesome!
Comments about Rip-Tie Carabiner CableCarrier 1.0x6.0" (Black 2 Pack):
Pretty straightforward construction, an inexpensive aluminum carabiner and a strip of velcro.
Seems to work and you don't mountain climb with them.

It works neat but I'm not sure it's worth it because you can purchase some carabiners and rope or something. It does look more professional and is a quick resource.
