Strap locks, who’s using what brands?

First ones I tried were Schaller. They came unscrewed all the time, which in retrospect shouldn't have been a surprise given their design.
Dunlops ever since, with no issues, but I'm not convinced that locking the strap on is a necessity.
I used Number One Stretch Straps throughout the 80's, throwing my bass all over and while I had a couple break, I never had one come off of the large, G&L strap buttons.
