I've been using the equalette for over a year now (since it was announced). I use it on probably 1/2 of the trad anchors I build. I've tried an extra set of small runners to make a master point but disliked carrying specialty gear. I also think independently tieing into the two lockers (e.g., cordalette and rope) needlessly takes away some sharing of the load. These days, almost all of the time I tie in to the equalette's lockers with the rope. As has been mentioned, the resulting loop of rope can serve as a power point and/or the second can use two other lockers to attach to the strands as mentioned in the Long/Gaines book. Bill L
