Spent $800 on a fancy anti-two-block system and it's been a headache
It's way too sensitive and keeps shutting down on me during routine lifts, costing more time than it saves. Anyone else find these 'safety' gadgets more trouble than they're worth?

Yeah, the "costing more time than it saves" part is exactly it. I've seen guys just start ignoring the alarms after a while, which totally defeats the point. You end up with a false sense of security because you're so used to it crying wolf over a bit of sway.

That "false sense of security" thing seems overblown. If you're ignoring real alarms, that's a training or discipline problem, not a tech problem. The gear isn't the issue.
