In a word, no. It has its own particulars, but there are some things about it that mitigate them too. I also recommend working that buckle a number of times when the TQ is new to make the process a little smoother.
When you refer to the "elastic tourniquet's" are you talking about the RAT? I haven't seen any of them out in anyone's kit, but I'm not a medic either.
Yes, SWAT-T, TK4, RATS, and any others similarly constructed.
I don't think I own any Gen 7's. Most of mine are still within exp. date, but honestly, I do not know what version they are. can you clarify "peds TQ"?
Thanks!
Pediatric use, or small diameter limb that a CAT or SOFTT-W won't close enough around to compress. I have had some IBOs that couldn't use a SOFTT-W or CAT.

Peds=Pediatric AKA Minor/Infant/Youth
This. Newer CATs (as of gen 5 or so?) are also longer, which is helpful for beefier folks.
