Automatic Sheet Release Devices

Please post any information on any commercial or privately designed devices.
I’m not interested in comments on catamaran vs monohull stability. I’ve worked for companies which have built both. So far, I’ve found UpSideUp which costs over 3,000 Euros. Also have seen a device on a cat by a French Captain in the thread Another Stability Question but all I can see in the video is the label ACS.
I found a Pfeiffer adjustable tension cam cleat but maybe they are no longer for sale. Maybe there are similar devices or designs . Anyone?
Lastly, my wife and I were once young and thin and did a lot of serious alpine climbing and some rock climbing as well. I found a review of what rock climbers call “screamers” In Rockclimbing.com. They are available commercially and I’m sure, sailors here could benefit from them as a safety device for mast work and I’m thinking they could be strengthened for other applications. Looking forward to replies from this knowledgeable group. Till then...
Happy trails to you.
