My Inferno lanyard
by Phydeau » Mon Mar 14, 2011 3:50 pm
Not real sure if this is the right place for this post, if not, my apologies.
With warm weather here in Texas approaching I was looking for a way to hang my PV around my neck since I probably won't be wearing a button down with a shirt pocket much for a while.
I started with a AA battery clip I was using for a metal button cover that's available at MadVapes:
http://www.madvapes.com/AAA-Battery-Holder_p_2392.html
(If you're considering using this for a button cover for your Inferno, be advised you will have to file down the raised edges on the button to get it to be low enough to fit in the squared off space. Otherwise the thing makes it fire at the slightest touch.)
Then I took a standard lanyard from a "roadie badge" from my roadie days and clipped the swivel off of it and then attached the clip to the swivel base:
It holds pretty tightly, I've been using it for over a week now (including a gig last week with the band, so I was moving around a lot) and it's yet to pop off unexpectedly. And yes, there is ample space to press the button while attached.
Hopefully this will help someone looking for a similar option.

Thanks for the compliment. However, you gotta admit, these lower temps this week have been SWEET!

Some people need a sympathetic pat..... on the head..... with a really big hammer..... next to a very high cliff..... above really sharp spikes.

Thank you. I, for one, love the simplicity of it. Allows the entire coolness that is the Inferno show.
