The Struggle To Find Where The Sticky Tape Begins Could Be Over

Whenever I use sticky tape, I find myself struggling to figure where it begins—mostly because I don't use tape dispensers or mark the ends—but my struggle might be over thanks to this new tape concept.
The V-Tape concept design is pretty basic. It's just a plain ol' roll of tape with a little v-shaped cut along one edge. Thanks to that cut, you'll tear off the tape in the same spot each time and know where to find the end.

The downside of the design is that you'll always have to use specific lengths of tape.

    When do you ever really a long piece of clear tape like that though? I think its a pretty good idea.

    Nice!
    Though I probably will keep slinging my Duct tape...

    Some might call me a rebel...but I'm just a man that sees what must be done.

    Yeah but isn't there going to be a random cut mark every time you go to tape something? Most modern tape rolls have a plastic thing at the beginning that helps you find it easily.

    nice idea but i think a better way of finding the end bit is to tape it a bit off the edge each time you rip it

    Specific lengths of tape? That seems like a huge trade-off for wasting 15 seconds looking for the seam... But I guess some people only use a little tape at a time.
