Pros & Cons
Pros
This tq offers more versatility of use than many others. It’s robust, easy to use, and of the same design i used when i served in the israeli military (idf) easy to carry in back pocket.
Can be used as a tourniquet or to secure a makeshift splint. It can be used to wrap a limb securely in asplint. Can also be used for compression on a wound.
Shark attack to gunshot/stab. Easy to use with instructions written directly on the tourniquet.

Highlights
Quality
They seem to be well made and can perform the job they are intended for
Excellent product fast and easy to use

This can fit any size limb even k9 officers which can’t be achieved by the cat tourniquet
Price
Great for the price and very reliable
This is a nice and inexpensive tourniquet

These are also cost effective if you can’t afford a cat tourniquet a few of these would be good
Packaging/appearance
The directions on the packaging are very clear and easy to understand
Bought this as a more packable tourniquet option
The package has lost its vacuum and is not tightly wrapped anymore but still smaller then my wallet
Juncture wounds need the packing compressed tightly into the would this will do it

The swatt i would not recommend for self aid to the upper extremity it’s doable with practice but slow and not the one i’d want to stake my life on due to the difficulty involved that’s my only negative finding there

The biggest thing there is keeping all the slack out and keeping the bands as close together as possible
