I bought this for my L3 project in 2013, but never used it. Clearing out the last few items that I'll never use and ran across this. Still in original packaging and unopened. Rated for over 6,000 pounds maximum shock load and for rocket projects 300 pounds or more!
The closeup photo, description & pricing at end of this listing is from the current website. I do own a L1 HDPE Tender Descender, and have used it successfully. Hanging on to the HDPE for a Space-X booster lander-inspired project I'd like to build (deployment of landing legs).
$55 with USPS shipping included. PayPal friends please. PM me if interested. I'll forward you the tracking number via PM when shipped.

The Tender Descender L3
Back by popular demand!
For those really large projects there is the Tender Descender L3.
The L3 Tender Descender is a massively strong tether and release device capable of withstanding over 3 tons of initial shock load and still be able to deploy with over 1,000 pounds of static load!
Even with this tremendous strength, this device weighs only 5 oz!
The L3 Tender Descender is intended for the very largest of projects weighing as much as 300 pounds or more!
Here is a video of this incredibly strong device being tested with over 750 pounds hanging from it!
