Anyone know where to find - or how to make - a lanyard which can be

I bought a pair at the turn of the year (HP330D drill/driver and TD090D
impact driver). Very happy with them so far: they are small and light;
and keep up easily with my short days/slow pace. But when working from
a ladder I miss the ability to attach a lanyard. All I have found so
far are holsters which don't appeal as they still risk my discovering
how far they bounce when dropped 6m onto concrete from clumsy fingers.
I've also failed to find a way to tie cords around them without getting
in the way of the trigger and/or chuck.


Sandpaper + Araldite a lanyard onto the bottom of the battery perhaps?


I would still go for tape wrapped circumferentially around the battery
just below the clip. Or those sticky foam pads used to stick rear view
mirrors inside windscreens, which really do stick! I am normally a big
fan of araldite, but what is the plastic? Perhaps OK on ABS but could it
be polypropylene?
