8 EDC Essentials You Actually Need In Your Bag

[@RonKwok]

Which essential gadget was your favorite?! 👇Lemme know below👇

[@johnsanford3596]

Leatherman Charge+. Everything the Wave+ has to offer PLUS a seatbelt/clamshell packaging opener hook.

[@MikeandIkes_EDC]

Another great video! Thanks, Ron! I picked up the Hoto screwdriver durning the black Friday sale. Favorite in your lineup was the leatherman and Data Crew pouch.

[@molon_labe_nc9390]

Absolutely gorgeous gear and come on aunt Sally 🤣

[@RonKwok]

Right?! Glad you enjoyed this one man!

[@dlabs-q3w]

Hey man had a quick question about your favorite material ultem.does the transparent yellow fade because I am considering getting a Civi knife with a clear yellow ultem handle but I worry that the sun will destroy it.

[@RonKwok]

The transparent yellow does not fade! it's the material itself, not a treatment or coating. I haven't personally done a long-term sun test to see what the sun would do to ultem specifically, but ultem is a thermoplastic that holds up really well in high temperatures so I don't see it having this issue. Hope this helps!

[@harunomiya]

Nice list of gear, that LWP RE color is sweet! Looking forward to that drop.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks as always Miya! And yes updates on that colorway real soon 😉

[@DariaYou-sd6ew]

The wuben X3's design is so cool. The sophisticated lens assembly to increase throw, the magnetic as well as wireless charging is very clever. I love the owl twisting head, and the one switch with LCD status screen instead of leds! If the battery and switch last the test of time then this is truly a quantum leap forward in both function and design. The futuristic design and materials make this a leader of lights on the market. Very Impressive.

[@RonKwok]

Glad you like the X3 - it’s pretty cool 👌🏼

[@hubbster7]

Great review your sound effects and humor are perfect

[@RonKwok]

Thanks man glad you dig it!

[@dnkswole]

I def need those Anker power bank ! Ty dude (nice informative video)

[@RonKwok]

It's mad useful! And thanks for checking out the vid my man 🙌

[@jasonlanglois7906]

Picket up the Hoto bit driver. Really nice build.

[@kgrdiy1928]

Great video 👍

[@skyistooblue2]

This is an actually good list. It's almost barebones but still meets almost all needs. I carry just about the same things except a bit driver. May pick up the hoto tho. I also carry the tiny vaseline jar and use it for anything from small cuts to emergency bike lube

[@Sandiario_Alejandro]

A very cool flashlight. I would like to buy one as a Christmas gift for my friend.

[@RonKwok]

Sounds like your friends would enjoy it!

[@TheWeaversofEternity]

Another banger of a vid Ron! But the thing I hate is... watching your videos makes me want to spend my money!!! lol I'm still rocking the good ol' Leatherman Wave, but that ARC makes mine look like a caveman tool hahaha. Anyhow, everything was on point again with your vid man, great work! Also, I made sure to watch to the very end to give you that sweet retention time! 😄

[@RonKwok]

Loool thanks for your support Tim that means a lot! Self control is KEY when watching these vids hahaha. Gonna have to add a monkey fist to my loadouts in 2024 👀 I have a Wave+ also and it checks all the boxes - the ARC is simply the next evolution on both ease of use and unfortunately, price 🤑 cheers man!

[@JacobLancaster-v4u]

another legendary video, Ron is the goat!!

[@RonKwok]

Thanks Jacob!! Happy New Year dude!

[@vanquestgear]

Ron, thanks for sharing these EDC essentials! The Leatherman ARC is sweet & will be added to my EDC kit! 👍 -Alex @ Vanquest

[@RonKwok]

Thanks Alex, I’m glad you enjoy the content! The Arc is really slick, and reduces a lot of friction (literally) in using Leatherman multitools 🙏🏼

[@vanquestgear]

@@RonKwok It totally does! Keep up the great work! -Alex @ Vanquest

[@OreoDave]

Smooooooth. Cheers 😁👐

[@RonKwok]

Much appreciated as always OreoDave! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving weekend 🙌

[@OreoDave]

@@RonKwok I did! I hope you had a great one as well. 1st one as a daddy?

[@RonKwok]

Third Thanksgiving as a daddy 😉

[@MicahsRants]

I love my ARC! Great video brotha 🤙🏽

[@RonKwok]

Thanks man! I’m still getting used to the one handed capabilities but man it’s refreshing

[@sameeralazawee7524]

Thank you

[@pyrosmoak53]

Ron my dude, I think it's dope that you crochet. How long have you been doing that? Nice selection of gear right there.

[@RonKwok]

Glad you enjoy the gear and YES lmao I’ve been crocheting for a couple months. Started with Woobles now I’m making a blanket for my kid LFG

[@borre2909]

First time I found your videos, but this one got me hooked with some great recommendations. Now I just need to know what is the snorlax/lucky cat I see glimpses inside the Data share bag, can you share info about it?

[@RonKwok]

Glad you enjoyed this vid, and thanks for supporting! The Snorlax and Lucky Cat REs are from @loadup.co on Instagram! Go check them out - they make awesome art

[@InFaMusMarvlis]

Question where is that yellow usbc cable from? 👀🙏🏼

[@Leogoesliquorstore]

aohi

[@DiYan-z8r]

Love the size of the WUBEN X3 and the fact that it has wireless charging is a huge plus! The lumens look small, but give off a bright light where it needs to be seen. Love the cute owl look it gives off. The only downside I don't like is that it gets hot after a few minutes of use. Nonetheless, it does its job as expected.

[@RonKwok]

It’s a cool light, thanks for commenting!

[@martinjba211]

Great load out, some really eye catching stuff. But that LWP RE drew my attention the most!

[@RonKwok]

Glad you enjoyed this one! And yep, that’s a sneak peek for ya 😉

[@jaimebara8]

Where is that lightning skull patch from?

[@RonKwok]

high class problems edc on Instagram!

[@durango8882]

I just got Wetols multi tool it’s excellent and great price.

[@RonKwok]

Glad it’s working out for you!

[@durango8882]

@@RonKwok👊🏻

[@trowawayacc]

Where did you got the patches?

[@RonKwok]

Lots of places! Which did you like the most

[@gearedforward]

Team Android EDCer here, I don't hate on Magsafe, it's really cool. So I just bought a Magsafe case for my Pixel 8 Pro, Best of both worlds for £14 ;)

[@RonKwok]

Best plan ever. I used Pixel for several years and will always have a soft spot for it!

[@dallas_vance]

What is the slotted wood tabletop, and the desk mat that flips up from a different video?

[@RonKwok]

IKEA pegboard and a self healing cutting mat on Amazon 😉

[@mczstudio]

1 day old me just learned what EDC means thanks to your intro, lol

[@LexieSmaill]

X3!!!Why don't you explain more about the X3, such a beautiful flashlight, one of the best of these products, can you explain more about the X3?

[@RonKwok]

It’s cool right?! Everything you need to know about it is in the video, with more detail in the product link in description. Hope it turns out to be useful for you!

[@gyaneshedward5179]

Is that a new LwP patch? :O

[@RonKwok]

Maaaaybe 👀

[@mikeydailycarry]

First off I just wanna say congratulations on the new baby. Second, I’ve been super anticipating a live stream from you or a video and this one absolutely delivers. Thank you for your inspiration and look forward to many more.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks a ton Mikey!! I appreciate the kind words - content production has been tricky with a newborn but I ground myself with ‘family firsts’ as a priority and then just doing what I can, one foot in front of the other 🙌 glad you enjoyed this one. Live will be back soon!

[@johnsanford3596]

Who needs 7 keys on their main ring? Seriously, I have two. One to my house, one to my vehicle. It's the wee Leatherman and the wee flashlight that make things chunky.

[@RonKwok]

Good question! Different times nowadays with work from home and flexibility, but before i used to have 6 keys lol. Home, work, personal and work vehicles, and miscellaneous doors that needed unlocking lol

[@manwiththeredface7821]

A $200 multitool is a hard pass for me, I don't care how big the hype is.

[@RonKwok]

Valid! If don’t have a need for it or can get more for less, shut it down 🙅

[@chiodiduinkerk7326]

where i live it is 300

[@OLdgRiFF]

Flashlight has a broken link

[@KnightRyder1990]

I'm team android, but I rock a ESR ring so I can use magsafe accessories

[@RonKwok]

There you go! SOLUTIONS people!

[@BeerDisciplesSpokane]

I loiked the Wuben and the pouch, orange isn't exactly my thing, but a blacked out version would be interesting , but damn that boy thiccc

[@RonKwok]

Orange is definitely a unique look, but I’m 100% onboard with blackout! Check my recent vids for a blackout pouch loadout from a little while back 🔥

[@Rick-fz7tt]

No more Spyderco knife 😊 ?

[@RonKwok]

It’s still in the rotation!

[@OlggaFlix]

Super fake package PTSD is real. I thought I bought an authentic LV Weekend Tote GM on eBay, when I opened the box I immediately thought I bought a fake: there was no foil stamping, the bottom did not match the picture, and the "dust bag" was torn and flimsy, but I The handbag I bought at HIDUPZ looks authentic: the hardware, the zippers, and especially the canvas. I sent it back and only got a partial refund, but am glad I don't have a AAA super fake on my hands. I have never bought LV since then.

[@kb_edc]

love japangeles

[@RonKwok]

Agreed!!

[@mtnbiker1778]

So, is the charger strictly for iPhone? Or are you under the idea that androids don't have wireless charging? Where do you think Apple got the idea?

[@Panzer_Z]

Typical team 🍎elitism and egotism

[@alimfuzzy]

Why go orbit key when the smartkey exists... it has a built in tracker and light.

[@RonKwok]

Lots of factors come into play when selecting a key organizer - aesthetics, capacity, and extra features too. SmartKey is a great option for those who want a hi-tech solution with all that stuff built in 👌🏼

[@granitejeepc3651]

why dont you just put it in your pockets?

[@RonKwok]

Too much stuff! Plus things fall out of joggers way too easily 🫠

[@estebanrodriguez8571]

Where the gun at?

[@RonKwok]

No pews here!

[@mariuskaizerman]

Nice review, just drop the sound effects, this type of humor is old, annoying and not funny anymore. The video is good enough without them.

[@RonKwok]

Thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed the video despite SFX!

[@imnotyan]

Keep the sfx. 😂 I like it.

[@ohozal9817]

I like the sfx as well. Keeps KZbin, KZbin

[@rickeykoga2312]

I actually loved the sound effects!

[@HeyItsCoates]

Don’t be a hater, be an appreciator.
