Vertical spacing between chapters in a tocloft List of Equations

Question

I have a List of Equations in my thesis, built using tocloft. The thing that's bothering me is that, in the List of Figures and List of Tables, there's vertical space where one chapter's figures/tables end and the next chapters' begins. Example:

My equations don't have this:

I've tried manipulating the new List of Equations with the \@cftasnum command, which I think will give me the result I need (that or \@cftasnumb) but I can't get the syntax right and my \renewcommand is invalid.

Tocloft definition code sample (with my hatchet-job redefinition commented out at the end):

\documentclass[12pt]{report}    % use report class, set font size
\usepackage[a4paper,width=150mm,top=25mm,bottom=25mm]{geometry} % specify A4 paper

\usepackage{tocloft}    % used for list of equations - TAG ALL EQUATIONS WITH \myequations command
\newcommand{\listequationsname}{List of Equations}
\newlistof{myequations}{equ}{\listequationsname}
\newcommand{\myequations}[1]{
    \addcontentsline{equ}{myequations}{\protect\numberline{\theequation}#1}\par}
\setlength{\cftmyequationsnumwidth}{2.5em}  % width of equation number in List of Equations

Answer 1

Okay, now I've tested it. I suppose I could have created my own MWE, but I would not have used tocloft.
