Love REI. As a backpacker, Red Cross volunteer and being in the military I almost always rely on my edc. I carry a CRKT knife, Gerber multi tool, rite in rain notebook, space pen, pocket size flashlight, headlamp, I wear a Garmin Fenix 6 pro, Oakley sunglasses and of course phone with my earbuds. Thats just my pocket edc. I carry a ruck or what people call a go bag every day.
@irzyxelwj3 жыл бұрын
I looked up the Fenix brand lights, since I've been shopping for a new work light to carry when I go to job sites. My old light needs a new battery and I just want something new. I saw the WT25R and that thing looks absolutely perfect for what I need. Glad I saw you mention their brand and I took the time to check into them.

I think the light you may have referred to was the PD36R which has the exterior USB-C port. One I was impressed with for it's small size was the Fenix E12 for a small pocket light. The PD36R is a little big to keep in a pocket but fits great in my 2-slot holster (multi and flash light).

If Garmin isn´t your cup of tea, try the (Multisport) Vantage or Grit Series from Polar. I don´t know if they´re widely available in the US, but they´re very good and almost half the price. I switched my beloved Tissot Automatic for a Vantage M as my daily driver about two years ago and only use the Tissot for special occasions now (with a suit, for example). I don´t use the 'smart' thing, but instead use it to keep track of my sleep, exercise and fitness levels with the occasional sync to my phone. The apps are also excellent.

Did you mean to exclude the Gerber Armbar Drive from the final EDC? I'm really curious about your thoughts on it. I got one when it first launched and don't find myself carrying it much. I think it was a huge miss to not have the driver lock. A little too much pressure and it can fold up on you. Really cool design though. Just wish the driver locked and maybe a file instead of the awl, and maybe add a pair of tweezer, and throw on a pocket clip...oh wait I just described the Leatherman T4
