I also have elevated guys and use the EHS leaders because:

1. the elevated guys are still too low for proper protection; and
2. I have found no tension gauge to measure Phillystran.

You need a short run of wire near the ground so that where you can use the
guage. They do that to keep some kid from cutting or a fire will burn the
Phillistrain.
