Increased loading with increasing extension is inevitable, is real and not to be ignored. Use the rope or clove hitches. Jim +1 on all the above points. I used the equalette and a variation of it for quite a while. I've pretty much gone back to simpler means. It is worth repeating that the primary anchor quality is bomber individual pieces. If there aren't good placements: continue the climb until there are, downclimb until there are, bail on a couple of the iffy placements*, or consider finding a very good stance and hope your partner won't be too pissed. Bill L * Edit: If you really feel like you've gotten yourself into a situation where you must use them, equalize two or three and rap (endanger only yourself).
