We have the Rare Spares one as well but I think the fact you can accidently knock the brake off with your leg is a fault in the design.

Another one ordered as my wife has problems in reaching the handbrake easily - safety should be easy not a struggle.
When my wife went on a manuevering course with C&CC our MH the instructor did say thet she might need to get the handbrake extended but we never got around to it.

Mine arrived a couple of days ago, fitted within 5 minutes and well pleased with the quality and ease of operation.

Fly off release reminds me of the old MG!

Twisting my body to reach down for the handbrake has been worrying me since I got the van. This post has made me realise that I should not be taking any unnecessary risks when there is a solution.

I even know which one to get.

The advice on this forum is priceless; you even get considered views for and against in most dicussions.
