        Comments about Equinox 50 Ft Gold Reflective Cord:

        As others have commented, get rid of those black guy lines! When strong winds are gusting and the tent has to be guy lined to the maximum, even the most experienced backpacker can get tripped up in the middle of the night with black lines. This guy line is everything that I expect from a reflective guy line. They are light weight and durable, and visible at night (there is a reflective strand woven into the line). This guy line is nearly identical to the Kelty triptease guy line. As with most reflective guy lines that I've used, these work best when using a headlamp or, if using a hand light holding it at eye level when looking for the lines.

          Getting up in the middle of the night to go see a man about a dog,and tripping over your tent guy lines is no fun.Of course,having a flashlight in your hands helps to make this reflective cord work.

              Again save those black guy lines they send with your new tent and use them for shoe laces or gear lofts.Because they're not good for guy lines at night or any other time.Reflective cord is the only way to roll !

                Comments about Equinox 50 Ft Gold Reflective Cord:

                Bought equinox gold reflective cord for tent/fly tie-downs. It is decently reflective - if you're the one holding the flashlight and it's night time and you're at least 15' away. Bystanders don't see the reflection as well. It is *not* as visible during the day as my original white cords were, so I'm not sure it's really an improvement, or just different. The reflective strand seems a bit rough, so a standard "taught line tent knot" doesn't slide as easily when tensioning as I expected. Suggest you buy one spool and see if you like it before buying 150' like I did.

                    Comments about Equinox 50 Ft Gold Reflective Cord:

                    I ordered this to replace the black guy lines that came with our tent. I cut this line to the proper lengths, packed it up, and took it with us camping.
                    While I found it slightly easier to see than the black stuff at night, I honestly didn't think it was all that reflective enough to make that much of a difference.
                    If you need to make up new guy lines to replace lost or worn out ones, then why not get this stuff? It is better than plain black.
                    If you are going to make a purchase just because of the reflective qualities of this line, then you might want to save your money. I didn't think it made enough of a difference.
