One of the worst things that could happen to pretty much any person who owns a home entertainment system is for one of the cables connecting the system's various components to get loose or/and disconnected from the input exactly when watching a movie. Of course, connecting it back is not exactly a very difficult process, but, depending on the setup and cable clutter, it can really take some time, thus affecting the whole cinematographic experience.
For this reason, the BlueEcho Solutions company has developed a very interesting device called hd EZ lock, which will make sure that the HDMI cable will stay in place, no matter what. This is possible due to the fact that the device attaches to the component’s chassis using either the existing fixing screw on the chassis (usually located above the HDMI Input), or with the supplied VHB adhesive.
According to the manufacturer, the hd EZ lock has a low profile, easy to use two piece design, which has been specifically designed to be compatible with most HDMI cables found on the market, up to 7/16 inches high and 7/8 inches wide. Furthermore, it also accommodates various fixing screw distances up to 3/8 inches from the center of the HDMI input to the center of the fixing screw.
Now, if you were wondering why such a product is actually useful, you should know that repeated disconnections of the HDMI cable from the input can actually damage either the HDMI input or the cable's connector, thus rendering them useless. For this reason, spending around 20 bucks on the hd EZ lock seems to be quite a good idea, especially taking into account the fact that the sales package includes all the accessories you'll ever need in order to successfully connect the hd EZ lock to the HDMI interfaces.
