I was watching Billy Strings on Rick Beato yesterday, and his capo was the lowest profile I've seen, so I checked it out. 
What do you mean by lowest profile? These are very compact and unobtrusive:...the lowest profile I've seen...
Just tight enough to eliminate buzz and let the note ring true. If you do that, you shouldn't have to retune.How much clamping force should a capo have? Just enough to “fret” the notes, or do you need to crank it?
You clamp then you tune up correct?

My only concern is if mine grows legs at a gig/jam. I've lost a Shubb capo and an expensive/rare guitar strap at gigs over the years.Best thing about these is they hold their value and can often get MORE than you paid!

I like the way you think.You can always buy two or three!
They fit over the nut so it's never off the guitar!
Nice and light too! I bought a G7 for a spare last month and I hate it! Way too heavy and you really can't tell how much pressure you've applied.
Are you just funning us or have you actually never heard of Elliott capos before? They've been popular for decades in acoustic guitar circles, especially Bluegrass and Bluegrass-adjacent players.I was watching Billy Strings on Rick Beato yesterday, and his capo was the lowest profile I've seen, so I checked it out.
