OHM Assisted belay deviceing Resistor An fantastic solution from Edelrid for how to increase friction during falls meaning a light belayer can thus control the fall to a heavier climber. If you regularly belay someone who is a bit heavier than yourself and often gets pulled up and forward if the climber falls the OHM Assisted Breaking Resistor may be for you. OHM allows you to use significantly less force when braking a fall. It also assists in lowering. The friction is applied dynamically so the falls are softened. Ohm Assisted belay deviceing Resistor in use: Secured with a sling to the first security point. Reduces the danger of falling if the climber falls on the first or second clip. Applies no friction when giving rope out. Recommended weight difference between the climber and belyer is between 10 and 40 kg. The minimum weight of the belayer is 40 kg For use with single rope with a diametre between 8.6 – 11 mm.
