Thanks.  I found it.
I forgot about those small rules.
As long as item is held unlimited time of summoned being is done for 
Famlilar.  That's huge.
Course means held not worn :)
Summoning Item says duratoin x2.
But Familiar says unlimited if held.
Powerful.
Course being cna try to dislodge the item.
Will limit use of other things like 2 handed swords.
I suppose that is the balance but the unlimited thing is buffed for sure.
