The RC article this thread is about is here:

http://www.rockclimbing.com/..._among_many_675.html

Just a note that I've logged at least 1500 or so more pitches using the Eddy since this thread was started. Haven't changed my opinion or use of the system yet.

BUT, that still doesn't mean what I do or that using an Eddy to free lead rope solo is in any way 'safe' either. It's an autoblocking device and as such there are no absolute guarantees it will lock up in all circumstances.
