I think very cheap carabiners are extremely fragile especially for repeated use. I saw a failing mode where the mobile axis just opens in the wrong way by going around the stator. Keep that in kind when choosing which carabiner to use.
Might be better to keep using ring keyholders but have one decently strong carabineer to hold the rings together instead of what you did : tiny carabiners that hols onto a ring no?
Oh yeah, that’s a good idea. You’d need to find a sufficiently small carabiner (most actually-good ones are pretty big), and I think you’d need to put the keys on larger rings than I used to be able to get a carabiner through them. I think if you wanted a stronger system that would work, although it might end up being bulkier.
I’m not really worried about strength myself though. The carabiners are probably not as strong as the listing says (15 kg max weight), but I only need them to hold the weight of a couple keys.
