DIY Simple Hearing Aid Safety Clip

This is the simplest and cheapest way to make sure you don’t lose your hearing aids on a hiking or canoeing trip (such as this). Works with any BTE (Behind the ear) type hearing aid. Bulldog clip, (dyneema) string, two simple slip knots. Attach clip to back of shirt collar. Cost: cents. Cheers.

3 grams is not a bad (weight) spend to save yourself a few thousand dollars!

Here is that knot in the posts World’s Lightest Tarp Clip & Pitching the Poncho

A great suggestion from Marc about how to make this even lighter (and simpler):

      Thanks for that Marc. The safety pin is a nice ultralight touch. I shall switch to that and add a suitable photo. Cheers, Steve
