The Gen 1 was the smallest windlass tourniquet on the market and is a proven product that has saved dozens of lives - but we feel any good product can be improved upon. The Gen 2 is a significant upgrade, keeps the form factor but includes three new patent-pending features. It is much easier to use, more robust, and has a wider window of reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGen 2 Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Curve™\u003c\/strong\u003e *Patent Pending:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe slot where the band is pulled through is curved, unlike other tourniquets. This shape spreads the load placed on the band when tight, focusing the tension in the center. With straight slots, the band is actually tighter on the edges than it is in the center, uneven pressure could result in permanent tissue damage after a prolonged use case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNew Tri-Grip Windlass™\u003c\/strong\u003e *Patent Pending:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe three flat surfaces per-side give your fingers more surface area and geometrical advantage while twisting the windlass over a traditional rod shape. Rod shape windlasses are inherently slippery - there will be a lot of blood when you go to apply a tourniquet. Although grippy, in our testing we found some windlasses can actually be over-textured and can result in the tearing of nitrile gloves exposing you to the patient's blood. The windlass is made out of a high strength polymer composite that will not break on you like that of Chinese knock off tourniquets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Ring™ \u003c\/strong\u003e*Patent Pending:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe new steel ring under the windlass makes it one of the easiest tourniquets to turn in the industry. Typically, the first two turns of the windlass on tourniquets are the hardest. We aimed to improve that. The ring creates vertical space to clear the carabiner and provides a mechanical advantage for the initial twist of the windlass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImproved tourniquet body:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe longer body and improved routing keeps the tourniquet in a straighter configuration even if the user doesn’t fully tighten the strap first as instructed. The only negative reviews we’ve seen on the Gen 1 were due to user error when they didn’t first fully tighten the band, or didn’t reset the TQ after repeated usage. You MUST tighten the band of any tourniquet first before twisting the windlass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCarabiner lock enlarged:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eAlthough the gate is the same size the inside of the carabiner lock is enlarged  significantly to make it easier to stow the windlass especially after a lot of windlass turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReinforced band material:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe Gen 2 band is now backed with a webbing that gives more rigidity and prevents it from folding in half and sticking to itself during the application process.
