I'm using the Greys ones. They do the job.

Stick to the solars mate, I've tried loads including the Greys/Gardner and the solars are the best.

The Cygnet ones are okay and will probably fit your trebuchet. Cheap as well

@Muz, I checked my purchase history, it was 14 mm I got for the Treb Lights, not sure if that helps or not

@DenzelLN - a few reasons.
They give you better bite indication as the pivot point of the line runs along the blank vs. from the bail arm (basically lets the line sit at a better angle).
They keep the line taught between reel/blank even when fishing really slack.
They can help with snag fishing in that you'll see the line pull out of the clip when fishing locked up with bowstring lines, sometimes well before the alarm registers anything.
Some guys believe they aid hooking on a bolt rig (I don't buy that personally).
I use them to gauge the severity of liners. If the line stays in the clip I'm happy but if it pulls out I'll assume the lead has moved and I'll recast.
They tend to keep the whole set-up tidy too.
I have them on all of my rods, I rate them highly.

I like the Gardner ones because line runs through them and you don't have to clip them in..
(easier to adjust).
Not sure if the others do this, I know the Delkim ones do..
