EDC: Upgrades (lemmy.world)

My Orbitkey was beginning to fray since I've had it for over five years. I made a replacement for the old canvas from 5 oz veg-tan leather. I've had my old wallet for a year and half. It was the first thing I ever made and I've never been completely happy with it. It worked well enough but there were small details that always bothered me. This week I made a new wallet from ~4 oz veg-tan leather and gave it some color. I was originally aiming for a sage green but I still need more practice dyeing which means it's now a dark green. I decided to wet form my pen into the front pocket of the wallet so it's less likely to fall out. I'm very pleased.

Hi all,

I'm looking for an edc sling that will have a compartment for the galaxy tab s8 plus. I see the tomtoc 7L MIGHT be able to, but it might not also. I can't find a clear answer.

Tablet Dimensions 285 x 185 x 5.7 mm (11.22 x 7.28 x 0.22 in) Weight 567 g (Wi-Fi), 572 g (5G) (1.25 lb)

Thank you

Ok it’s a wish list but I’m trying to check all boxes.

  • slim design
  • card ejector mechanism
  • AirTag integrated without a massive unsightly bump
  • MagSafe connection to iPhone
  • brown or black leather (optional but preferred over metal)
  • price $120 max

I haven’t found any options yet which check all boxes.

I am a father to a preschool age kid and frequently travel on airlines. This kit is meant to all fit in the tin allowing me to put it in my pocket along with some keys and I'm good to go. The bandages and sewing kit are for playground accidents and the shout wipe is for airport food accidents.

In the front two exterior pockets, the sewing kit fits in on the left and the Knipex fits in the right.

It's basically a mini commonly used hardware and medication pouch. I use fishing line for sewing in situations where I need strong thread, and I have various size needles in there too. The Altoids Smalls tin has a few of my most commonly used medication for me and my family. The Rolaids are for my heartburn unfortunately.

Here are my needs:

Budget friendly under 45 euro (flexible on that)

Good battery life

Decent durability

relatively high maximum brightness.

Nice to have:

Multiple settings

USB rechargeable battery

I was recommended the sofirn sp35 before

Switched everything for orange versions for fall. Just got the Mighty Hank and am really liking it, definitely feels nicer and more personal than carrying just a normal glasses lens wipe, adds a bit of personality to it lol.

What lightweight, practical flashlights would people recommend?

I want something that I could use while camping, dog walking, and general day-to-day tasks (finding something under the bed for example). Currently I use my phone torch, which isn't particularly practical. My previous (battery powered) torches have died after too short a space of time - I want something that will last.

One with a clip would be handy, so I could attach it to a cap.

I see lots of ones online with insane lumens. 1000 lumens seems like overkill for my purposes!

Not too worried about price (within reason!)

Last day with this gear before I switch to the seasonal gear for fall and winter. Gonna be a lot of orange starting tomorrow!

Also model.

I normally carry a backpack because I like having some extra inventory slots for things like my wireless headphone case, pen, notepad, and occasionally a portable charger but I have been wearing a pair to work and quickly realised how capable they are for a majority of what I do.

Ideally I'd like something relatively durable maybe with internal pockets or organiser loops to hook a pen to.

I feel like I recall Rotcho and 5.11 selling cargo pants but I don't know if they are as good as some of their other products.

So let's say someone let my Douk-Douk soak and dry in the air after doing the dishes...how would you rescue the blade? I thought about removing the rust with some rust remover and adding an acidic patina after that but not sure how well this works out.

Any recommendations?

Due to local restrictions on blade length (2.5"/6.35 cm) when I go into the office, today's knife is a Civivi Baby Banter with my well worn Olight i3T. The Rite-in-the-Rain is a new gift from a friend and fellow Scout leader. I'm really liking it.
