saw many posts on reddit were people registered and could not log in, did not get confirmation mail, had too long names/PW issues.. I could not register first, worked at the second or third attempt.
Lemmy is absolutely easy to use. once you created an account. But a lot of people have problems with that.
yes, this is confusing. if you choose "TS10" and "black", you get the 2-way black clip I have on my light in the picture. I guess "silver" is the original clip, which is too short.
as I said.. about the weight of an alu 18650 light.. now I took my kitchen scale and checked..
copper TS10 weighs 98gram according to my kitchen scale. my alu FW3A weighs exactly the same! (both with cells)
a Zebra SC64 weighs 88g. Emisar D4 alu with stainless bezel weighs 120g, Alu Convoy T3 with 14500 is 74g - all with cells and clips.
regular TS10 with cell is about 50 gram
but the added weight just feels "nice and dense" in hand, not overly heavy. I dont notice the difference in the pocket. it makes a difference though when I clip it on my hat. my regular TS10 actually replaced my headlamp. I can still do it with the CU version, but I notice the difference.
Just got this copper beauty in. Came with free diffusor, bought the better clip extra. EDC Perfection.
how do you get a 60$ bidet?
oh fuck. very infuriating. what record was it?
I am super happy with this! A modern knife with a traditional design. Fires open and shuts super smooth. Thumb or reverse flicks beautifully. Great slicey razorsharp blade and with classic look that wont look out of place anywhere more than a Opinel when I cut my food, even though the blade is quite big at about 8,5cm.
It is a Petrified Fish PF719 with 12C27 sandvik steel on bearings and smooth G10 handles with a beautiful pattern in it. No logos on the blade that might ruin the look. Liner lock, clipless. Weighs 79 grams.
Also available with wood scales but I wanted better water resistance. Costs under 30 euros.
nice load out.. I am interested what tools are in your tool pouch?
I too carry lots of stuff with me in my backpack, but try to not overpack it. have many similar things like you.
I like to spend quite a bit of time outdoors and I carry some more items you dont have. might be interesting..
spoon. spoon is always good.
toothbrush for spontaneous overnighters
extra socks, because dry feet are happy feet.
sawyer water filter
now in summer I added a tick removal tool.
a dollar store rainponcho. Just in case I forgot to pack or dont want to carry a jacket or to give to someone else.
a bright colored cotton tote bag. mostly used for extra storage for grocery shopping, but can be used to wipe stuff clean, for organization inside the backpack and can be used as a pillow with clothes stuffed inside. Also, If I need to transport stuff longer than a car trunk can fit, the law says you need to attach some signal colored sign or cloth to it. so I got that covered.
I carry a space blanket in my backpack. was handy one time when my car broke down and I could give it to my GF so she could stay warm and dry. was a big help and calmed her down when she was panicking. so I keep one in my bag now. again this is lightweight, compact and waterproof.
I always have a big heavy duty trashbag . Compact/lightweight and useful. I found uses for this quite a lot. as ground cover to sit or lie on, you can make a rain poncho or shelter, use it as a improvised tarp, protect your stuff in heavy rain, collect water, line your backpack, wash clothes inside.. or just use it as a trash bag. I work with paint sometimes, so I also use it as reusable cover for tables/surfaces. I use this quite a bit.
I also need duct tape often. I always have some about 1-2 meter duct tape wrapped around an old card/piece of cardboard. takes no space and is useful as hell. comes in useful 1-2 times a week. I also have small tube with quick super glue.
and I always have thread+needle with me (not in the backpack, on person, in my wallet). again, takes no space, and is hard to replace/improvise when you need it (and when you need it, it is usually really important, like when you have torn trousers/jacket or a problem with your backpack). for extra strong thread you can use dental floss.
and.. don't laugh.. I also have a cutting board or cutting mat in my backpack! it stabilizes my pack, protects my computer better, and I can obviously cut paper or food on it or use it for writing/drawing/printing. I also can sit or kneel on it when needed, use it to write on it and make a waterproof sign, and it can help starting a fire.
Lastly, I recently made a small lightweight cooking kit that fits in an altoids tin. it has 3 long nails, pot/cup-stand, the cooker is a small reusable metal container I filled with ethanol gel (enough to cook 0.5 to 1l of water comfortably) and some aluminium foil for windshield/lid. There was some space left, so I also put in a tea light candle, spare utility blade, some metal paper clips (for setting up the windshield) and a few neodym magnets (useful and nothing rattles) and coffee. I love me some coffee, so this little kit was used a lot recently! my water bottle can be nested in a metal cup, so the cup takes up no extra space.
Let's test this
left one blank line under the pic
I read in an article that he was valued 600 million in 2017. that sum actually suprised me.
