That thing looks like a usless solution looking for a problem.
Remove and replace with a standard zip tie and just carry extras in your dive kit.

First time I serviced my G250V, I replaced mine with a zip tie.

As previously stated it may not be wise to reuse on other combinations as it is engineered especially for their mouthpiece shank. Hate to have a mouthpiece detach and take a huge drink on your next breath.
The ones on my G250V are a bit different than the one pictured in a previous post. I'll take a photo tonight and post it. I have had them off a couple times. It's a little tricky but not to bad. I usually use a small flat screwdriver.
Muddiver is right. A solution for a non-problem. I guess it just looks better to a manufacturer than a zip tie. Aqualung uses a similar one but much friendlier.

Lift latch as shown in photo one and pivot to position shown in photo two. The latch has a little safety catch on it so don’t be afraid to put a little force to it.
With latch in the position shown by the blue arrow in photo two insert screwdriver into narrow slot on left side of band (red arrow). While squeezing at the two red arrows in photo three push the screwdriver in the direction shown by the green arrow in photo two. The stainless steel catch will pop open. Pivot it as far out of the way as it will go and remove band.
To reassemble just reverse the order making sure that stainless catch is all the way down and lock the latch on the left side making sure the little safety catch engages and is flush with the top of the latch. Also make sure band is properly seated in mouthpiece groove.

Thanks all, esp. Randy for the detailed photos,
That pretty much sews it up; if I need to have a tool (screw driver) anyway, I may as well use zip ties. I was hoping these contraptions would be easy enough for a kid to use poolside with no tools, but 'tain't so.

Appreciate those photos. Just ready to remove a clamp on a R190.
Also going to be purchasing a G250V and it's good to know how these
clamps work.
