Best Budget EDC on Amazon (Everyday Carry)

[@JonGadget]

If anyone is having trouble viewing this there appears to be an issue the the standard definition render but 4K seems to be fine - we are trying to get this resolved 😬

[@anthonyjobson]

Hi Jon, just some feedback for the edit. When you're doing these sorts of lists it would be really helpful to put the product make/name/model back up on the screen as an overlay again for the last 5 seconds of the end of the segment before you move onto the next. It saves us rewinding once you've sold us on yet another handy item :)

[@BetaBetaZZ]

Finally, useful stuff that make things easier. Seriously lots of this stuff are necessary and not just trash. Tools can make a difference in so many cases

[@Brian-Burke]

Love your work, Jon!!!!!!

[@mareikekeller9688]

Awsome! Not just the items but also the way you present them and the info you provide in the description. Thanks!

[@xvaldez3284]

The lightning port on the incharge cable also doubles as a micro USB. It blew my mind the first time I tried it. Didn't think it'd slide in much less actually work but as advertised it works.

[@hondao5]

$30?!?

[@pjlacey3990]

Tip for travelling with soap and shampoo bars…if you are not going long and want to reduce weight and size, cut the bar down to either a thinner or smaller size.

[@peggywoods4327]

That's what I do too! Plus I got a bar that is a combo soap and shampoo, so I only have the one.

[@kixb4632]

thanks for this jon, lots of other channels tend to hyperfocus on very unique, bespoke pieces that are often very expensive for the average gadgeteer. keep on rockin!

[@rogats]

The display of them all at 9:48 was a nice touch!

[@buckcherry2564]

hahaha, I love random serendipity. I am sitting here watching youtube while working on something and have a Clear-body Tombow Airpress in my hand just clicking away while I fidget-think. Look over at the video and there is the Airpress! That made my brain skip a beat.

[@TriHard612]

the locking carabiner is also useful for the zipper on the sling bag. helps prevent pick pockets.

[@edwardcook5560]

Great list Jon. I’ve got a few of those bits already. Just on the Heroclip. My Dad went to Peru earlier this year and borrowed my Heroclip. Said it came in SO handy for hanging his backpack whilst on the Machu Picchi trail; keeping it off the wet floor etc. I’m surprised I got it back 😅

[@JonGadget]

great to hear 👍

[@grumpyoldphart7325]

I have the first bag you showed. Bought it twice. Love it.

[@ChatGPT1111]

Really enjoy your channel for loads of great EDC and prepper ideas. Keep up the great work Jon!

[@Cousin_Gregg]

Love this man’s EDC style. Very sophisticated and crisp. 🫡

[@JonGadget]

Thank you 🙏

[@billcook4768]

Good to her from a man who understands a towel is about the most massively useful thing an traveler can have.

[@nathanj9354]

Thank you. We love these products reviews and recommendations. Keep the videos coming. 💯🔥🙌✊👍🙏

[@smtheepicgamingcouple1818]

This is literally my first video I’m watching and I subscribed before even watching the video! Channel already seems like it’s FANTASTIC

[@JonGadget]

Wow! Thank you and welcome to the channel 👍

[@clairedriscoll8628]

Fabulous list of really useful light compact travel accessories thank you

[@markmcd731]

Great budget list! I have a few of these, but found a few I will pickup.

[@matthewbrown6163]

Well Jon that torch / flashlight is a little beauty. I won a few at a Trade Show & ended up ordering a few more. I added them to my keys & have used mine a few times. Very Robust & great quality.

[@stevesinclair4159]

Happy Thursday Jon & wishing all American readers on here a happy Thanksgiving. I buy a fair number of goods on Amazon because they reliable but usually are not competitive on prices

[@JonGadget]

Happy holidays! Steve 👍

[@carolinetomkinson760]

Really enjoyed this video. All of these items really useful for minimal travel. Thank you.

[@fractode]

Lots of info / second, with no "fluff"! Thanks for posting. 👍

[@SgsfjkHbjfsp]

First of all, the H Q D U P S materials used in this replica are top-notch. The leather feels soft and luxurious, just like the real thing. The stitching is impeccable, no loose or uneven lines. The hardware, including the signature CC twist-lock closure, is sturdy and well-made, adding to the overall elegance of the bag.

[@Verodasessanta3]

Often seen your videos, got some very nice hints, and must confess, I ordered several things, also based on this one. I really love your explanations and very useful recommendations. Thanks a lot, please go on!

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for the kind feedback

[@FiveRustyNails]

I find a regular "Parker" gel refill makes an excellent tiny pen for wallet or mini note book.

[@OreoDave]

Lots of useful items. Hero clips are the hero of any edc

[@sassyboofle6983]

Thank you , enjoyable don’t know why , well I do but you know what I mean …. So enjoyable it’s relaxing and therapy to watch. Great ideas too . 👍👏

[@JonGadget]

Thanks Sassy 👍

[@easydoesit]

Excellent video. Useful and affordable products and where to find info upfront. Full but concise description. Thank you.

[@JonGadget]

thanks for watching

[@rorydrever3966]

Already got the sling and would highly recommend it

[@kymmoulds]

Some great ideas in your video. Thank you for taking the time to make it. Much appreciated and a BIG thumbs up.

[@KansaSCaymanS]

Thanks for all the great Christmas gift ideas - to get for myself. 😎

[@JonGadget]

You're welcome 😊

[@christythefish]

OUTSTANDING VIDEO!! I have purchased everything for X’mas for my son!😃

[@AnnieGill7]

Great stuff Jon, loved your presentation, you sure make it fun and easily watchable‼️🐾😁. Thanks!

[@JonGadget]

Thanks Annie

[@georgegonzalez-rivas3787]

Hey! Where have you been? This set of suggestions is WAAAY above average for this type of KZbin video. Excellent work!

[@mikey8710]

Like the locking carabiner clip, had the same issue with twist unlocking. The Alox scales look classic on these knives

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@amaximo]

Jon I believe this is your best list so far. Excellent selection great price and buying on black Friday just makes it even better! Enjoy your channel. Thank You

[@maxlvledc]

Really good subject!

[@JonGadget]

Thanks Dom 👍

[@JacquesTreehorn]

Good stuff. I like the hero clip. I may get one of those.

[@eyang7]

Nice, this was what I needed. Thx a bunch.!

[@conjandysecurity]

I like carrying expensive knives, but the rest of my gear is always budget finds. I’m gonna like this video. Happy Holidays!

[@JonGadget]

Happy Holidays

[@bikeman9419]

Great video, lots of useful items and price are quite reasonable.

[@davidkay1386]

Well thanks Jon. I was doing good not buying things today but your video made me do it. Such good deals. Thanks.

[@CompassCustomCreations]

WOW! Great reviews of gear that doesn't break the bank! Your use cases are spot on, Thank you!

[@seleph]

Timely for holiday wish lists, thanks.

[@adalix3954]

Today I discovered the magnetic utensils and you convinced me about the matador soap toiletry bag. Merci beaucoup, Monsieur Jon ! Une bise de Paris

[@susanknauff]

Outstanding products. Thank you for sharing. I have subscribed.

[@yhsh1874]

A simple carabiner with a loop of string or rope works just as well as that hero-clip, just needs some improvising and preparation but that's exactly the way I'd like to roll.

[@CourtandHolly]

What a great video and review of each item!!!!

[@leemarson7350]

First time I have come across one of your videos. You have a lot of interesting kit I was not aware of. Thank you for the video. 👍🏻

[@914Rocky]

Mystery question of life: Why doesn’t every viewer check the like button? It takes no time at all. It’s free. And it is a little thank you for the creator of the video you just watched. I like every video I watch.

[@JonGadget]

Thank you

[@PaulB-justme]

I have the S-biner for holding an Olight 1R2 torch and the smallest Swiss Army Knife on my key ring - ideal for unlocking and unclipping them if I need to use them away from the keys! 👍

[@Djinsoul]

Such a useful video. Had a few stuff already but got to know a lot more. Cheers!

[@razvanteleanu4302]

Incredibly usefull. Thank you, Jon!

[@Agent93]

good video and great tips. Thank you. you convinced me to take one more foray into the amazon after a long Black Friday weekend.. I will be broke if you don't stop showing the coolest gadgets.

[@JonGadget]

😊👍

[@carlopoli9067]

My congratulations, Jon, every article of your videos becomes useful, valuable and attractive when accompanied by your comments, to the point that it even makes me want to buy them even when I don't need them at all. You'd make an outstanding merchant, but I'm assuming your followers will already have recognized your ability to be a super-convincing advertising agent. I always follow your videos, but I have to limit my Amazon purchases, otherwise I drain my finances

[@neilwhite8131]

Great stuff, just ordered the Resqme double pack, Thanks for a great vid, cheers

[@JonGadget]

You're welcome 👍

[@TriHard612]

i wish more bags had bright material on the inside, makes finsing things so much easier. i have used bright colored duct tape to line small pouches.

[@J-Rad_moderndaypirate]

I was homeless for a time, years ago , and ya EDC equipment was absolutely essential...funny now it's become a fad, me now I live in a home, have a years supply of food, plenty of mercury dimes for SHTF, and still EDC, plent of items, caribener clips are absolutely essential along with a good pocket knife, a chain wallet is extremely underrated, also flashlights are a must, also wear a silver necklace or bracelet...if your ever in a jam you can trade it for a few gallons of gas or a meal or something...be safe and GL!

[@ashbenson4266]

Great stuff mate. Pity we can't get Amazon easily here in NZ. Keep up the great work as very informative.

[@tjthedogtrainer]

Love my Tom Toc sling bag, great for the price compared to similar slings.

[@JonGadget]

👍

[@lymskiUK]

Maybe it’s just me not paying enough attention to the lower thirds but I’m constantly skipping back to find out the price of the items I’m interested in. I don’t think in future videos it would look out of place to repeat the lower third graphics with the name and prices at the end of each segment, it would have been handy for me as I was interested in pretty much all of it 😅 Thanks for the great video’s!

[@Maixo]

Great upload. Some very useful gear in here 👍👍

[@Golaso99]

The heroclip is great for commuting - I often have to stand on the train for 30+ mins and i can hook my bag to a handrail, keeping it off the ground. One of the best inventions!

[@lucchese20]

I agree. On occasion, however, I find the rubberized tip on the end doesn’t always grip very well like on all surfaces like a smooth wooden table. ☹️

[@JonGadget]

great feedback

[@teutatix]

Interesting and fun as always, thx for sharing!

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@pascaldelaunay4740]

Great content ! Well done and good choice !

[@chrisfreer6013]

Jon you are the gadget geeks hero mate - I doff my cap to thee sir! 🙏🙏

[@LowkeyLukeDnB]

Great video. Covered loads of products. Cheers

[@richardcampbell4506]

Another Amazon find is a flashlight with power bank functionality. The best I’ve seen so far is the Sofirn SP33S Powerful Torch 5000 Lumen but I’m really looking for a flashlight that uses the 18650 battery for a more compact solution. Thanks for the great videos

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for sharing

[@f1remandg]

Detailed, Concise & informative! Very good indeed, some things a little pricy, but that’s not your fault! DG

[@cornbeef]

Fantastic list! Just bought a few of them as I go away to Canada this year. The matador soap cases aren't available now, but I've got two similar ones that will do the trick. Now you'll have to let us know what soap you use to shine your noggin, as I too live with a smooth dome.

[@ExhumedTornado]

Great tools. I definitiv buy some of them soon. Thanks for the video. 🎄

[@chrishyde7798]

Another great video! Thank you so much!

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@macbaryum]

I use a Ziploc bag for EVERYTHING: sandwich bags, 1 gallon bags etc.

[@WatchDSSID]

Very informative video (thanks), and I ordered the Osprey ultralight bag, which I’m delighted with - amazing how small it folds up, so very convenient for travel etc. I’ve since noticed there is a “Amazons Basics“ copycat alternative, which is slightly bigger and also includes a front pocket, for nearly 1/3 of the price, so I’ve ordered that as well and will compare when it arrives.

[@pognub6097]

Just wondering how the Amazon basics went

[@WatchDSSID]

@@pognub6097 really pleased with it, I’ve used it a couple of times. Folded down it’s bigger than the one in the video (which I initially bought….and sent back) but the Amazon Basics is MUCH cheaper and has more features.

[@pognub6097]

@@WatchDSSID thank you, might get one as well

[@kylegreen7468]

Hey Peter - any chance you could drop the link?

[@AlexanderHonsVonEber]

I like that key smart nano clip but after following your link and searching I couldn’t find it. But great video!!

[@larspetersen2688]

So many great ideas for budget friendly EDC.👍 At some point you might want maybe to investigate the market for awesome card holder /wallet?

[@JonGadget]

There are a few wallet reviews on the channel - always lots of options though

[@SuperJoeyyyyyy]

Nice to the point, informative video. You just gained a subscriber.

[@JonGadget]

That’s great to hear. Welcome to the channel 🙏

[@scousewolf4199]

Awesome stuff Jon. Have you tried the EDC-XS Utility pouch by limitless equipment? A great pouch, with great features from a UK survival company. It's my new preferred pouch option.

[@Lazerscythe]

Does it come in black? - Bruce Wayne

[@Currywurst3000]

Great - and useful - episode!

[@JonGadget]

Glad it was helpful!

[@panoscharos983]

Excellent... regards from Athens Greece..

[@BrokenCurtain]

I'd recommend getting the Victorinox Cadet instead of the Bantam. It has a second layer with the standard bottle opener and can opener, plus a nail file and a key ring. It's much more versatile. Another option is the Victorinox Signature Lite.

[@ting280]

i have that keysmart clip in black and most of the little Rovyvons are on Amazon, they're pretty hard to beat

[@JonGadget]

agreed 👍

[@AD-qd7ps]

Osprey do a great see threw toiletry bag for £10. Been using it for years when travelling abroad with no issues.

[@jmruiz209]

Excellent list Jon! I would like to know what watch do you have

[@WilliamWallis]

All great choices.

[@Rational_Driver]

I've had a heroclip for years now. The thing is super convenient and sturdy as long as you don't go putting a lot of weight on it.

[@stevenmeatsandwich49]

I have the medium & it will hold my 40 lbs bag!!! Now when I need stuff out of it, I go slow & don't put any pressure on the bag!!!

[@JerNorm]

Great picks! Thanks.

[@rogerhudson9732]

It's good to find a UK based EDC KZbin channel, many American channels have too many items that could be classed as 'offensive'. This list has some very useful items, the writing paper is an essential.

[@rodmeisterful]

Best EDC video ever!

[@WarGrrl3]

Excellent vid, thank you so very much. Blessings my Friend.

[@DannerBanks]

What a great list.

[@allemander]

The Olight is the “i1R2 Pro”, which is the second generation of the “i1R2”, with the R designation in the name signifying that it’s rechargeable. Before the Pro and its predecessor, there was the original “i1R”. Don’t forget to include the lower case “i” at the start of the product name in order to identify it correctly.

[@JonGadget]

Thanks for that

[@ankebosing1968]

Good stuff, thank you. This video might be bad for my bank account. 🤭

[@JonGadget]

Thank you. Ouch 😊

[@kinglizzy99]

great list thank you!

[@sterlingcrawford1218]

I prefer the Kablecard for an emergency charging and data cable solution. Not much bigger than the one he showed, but much more versatile

[@richfrommitch]

[@BillyTheCheeseMonger]

Moving to NZ soon this is very helpful

[@thefreakingrickdaton3273]

Hi Jon, today I received a manager, I decided to buy it thanks to your recommendation. I had a 10€ discount on Amazon!

[@adorablegodzilla5628]

You can also get travel sheets of soap depending on how much soap you need (I used to buy those when traveling in Asia as many bathrooms didn't have soap among other things).
