    @indygamertag829 4 месяца назад +5

    Solid video! Beauty of EDC is while there is commonly accepted ideas, many people cater to their own lives. My biggest disagreement is the battery pack. Having a solid battery pack in your EDC backpack is truly a must in my opinion. I carry a couple USB A and C bricks and cords for multiple devices (for me and others) and it takes up a fraction of the space in one of my two interior mesh pocket. I’d argue it takes up less space than your plug in extension/multi charging cable and long cord setup. This isn’t me throwing any disrespect but the beauty of a battery pack is there’s no need for outlets and any hikes, emergencies or daily use comes with knowing you’ll always have your lifeline open to you because you can charge it right from your pack. Not to mention the mobile side of it. No need to stay stationary and be stuck in place waiting for a charge. Whereas deciding not to carry a battery pack and instead a charging cable, it assumes you’ll have access to a charging location.

    I always have a pair of nitrile coated ANSI A4 gloves. Good to protect from heat, broken glass, chemicals or whatever filth I get stuck dealing with, and cheap enough that I don't mind discarding them.
    I like a solid colored handkerchief in case I need a work surface. Staring at a busy printed pattern while working with small parts sucks.

    If you do a lot of work on the go I'd also suggest a portable surge protector. The last thing you need is to have a piece of gear get "zapped" by a power surge when plugging in at coffee shops or other random places. It's probably not all that likely to happen but as someone who once had a laptop component get fried by a power surge I'd HIGHLY recommend it.

    I’ve been doing quite well the last fifty or so years keeping to a minimum which includes a watch, house & car keys, phone, and wallet. Sometimes I’ll splurge and add sunglasses, ball cap, or jacket.
    All those other items you and every other EDC channel carries is overkill for me and most other people. Those other items fall under “nice to have but don’t need” category because I can get along quite well without them.
    If the need arises I need something else then I know how to make it happen which doesn’t require going into MacGyver mode with some odd piece of something in my pockets tied with a piece of string, duct tape, or a paper clip to escape some end of the world scenario that a lot of EDC preppers claim to be prepared for.

    The one thing I always thought was silly was handkerchiefs, but I was going through a lot of tissue when winter came in, so I got some to lower my tissue expenses. Now I carry 3 at all times in my backpack and 1 in my pocket. 3 are cotton; 1 for my hands and 2 for my nose. 1 is microfiber for my phone screen and food knife.
    I recommend them to so many people because they end up using one of my clean ones regularly.

    • @RRavencraft
      @RRavencraft 2 месяца назад

      I was watching a prep video one time and this guy really shed light on the use of good, old fashion white cotten handkerchiefs. He had washed a new banana in with his wife's clothes and ruined them. She obviously freaked.
      So the light bulb went off in his head about using these things to prefilter water. This has to be one of the biggest DAH issues in the entire prepping community. Going even beyond chemical dyes in average soaps, laundry detergants and fabric softeners. I mean Tide Pods, hello.
      So to think of going to the effort to save a water filter or better purify water by dumping in dyes and detergants is laughable really. Not to mention the effect on the actual filter 😅.
      An one more thing is to advise people that a Smaug or Bandana can be used as a wound dressing is pretty scary as well. In the world wars they would shred up white cotten or linnen bedsheets and the dyes back then were far more natural then the chemicals and fabric treatments another thing, or crap we use as sun blockers, or the big one bug sprays, DEET, Permethrian, etc...that get on everything we come in contact with .... SMH.
      Can you imagine using a banana you had around your neck, or a smaug over your head, or part of a shirt now to prefilter 😆 drinking water ?
      And no one talkes about it .... I mean...?????

    A chemlight or Whats it called a lightstick. Something for that purpose of signaling and you just don’t want to toss your flashlight on the ground. And some paracord you can’t go wrong with some rope, just an extra shoelace or something like that. You don’t need to go all bug out . Other than that I think you have a great setup for walking around the office and home. I have a Wera tool check plus for a toolkit and it works great for 90% a small first aid kit and some way of changing in my back pack and I really appreciate having space in the pack for what ever I’m doing that day, like going to the park I need a water bottle and a jacket. I’m going down town I might need to bring a shopping bag or two. Going to the beach toss in a swim trunks and a towel. So by reducing what I carry in my “EDC” backpack I can actually carry more. If that makes sense. I just have to be careful not to feel the need to fill it up with stuff I might need. For that I have a different bag.

    The pack in this video is awesome! That internal tray system is genius! I think we have a similar approach to separation of items. I have a system I call OWN EDC. ON ME; WITH ME; NEAR ME. On me: in my pockets or attached to me. With me: a sling/pouch that is always within reach. Near me: a bag with larger items that I want to always have available. I often leave this in my vehicle because I am able to have it close by 95% of the time. (*I'm not talking about a GHB that is designed to be packed and left alone ready to go) Which category each of my EDC items falls into depends on what I am doing each day. The items don't change much, just how I carry them.

    That notpad would be better with a pencil vs. a ink pen. Unless you're sure the ink won't skip or run dry - a pencil is tried and true and can just be there indefinitely until you need. If you need to write something down. Just my opinion there are some nice mechanical pencils out there.

    I've always thought it was stupid but I do carry a spare wallet in my EDC for all those stupid membership cards that everyone hands out for those membership points and discounts. There are too many of them to stick in your main wallet but, the moment you leave them home is the moment you end up in the grocery/ gas station/ restaurant/ convenience store that's handing out those points and giving out those discounts. I also do the sling in backpack thing because I have a lot of stuff in my BP that I don't really need to bring with me for a grab-and-dash, so I just grab the sling leave the pack in the car.
    I don't game but I do watch videos and listen to music so I bring a tablet instead of a console. I also bring headphones or earbuds so others don't have to hear what I'm listening to. I usually have a reusable grocery bag for emergency shopping. I also like bringing a compact camera, even though the one on my phone gets used most often. Just old school. And even though I don't smoke, I have an arc lighter on me always. Very practical for burning off those stray threads.

    I keep a small roll of dog poo bags. Sometimes you gotta pick up something nasty or you just need a bag that you don’t really care about. Most are biodegradable now so it feels a little better than a plastic Walmart bag

      All I carry for everyday use is small flashlight, basic multitool, pepper spray, pocket planner with pen, and a small first aid kit. It covers 90%+ of what I need all carried on my person in my Duluth Trading vest.. I have a backpack in the car with more supplies that I can draw on for special circumstances. When you carry 25-35ozs of self defense you don't want to be dragging around a bunch of stuff you rarely use.

    I was happy to see this video popping up, thinking finally something put in a backpack for those of us whose entire hobby doesnt revolve around carrying random, overpriced titanium bits around all day... I didnt expect the entire backpack to BE edc. I mean, I put edc items in a backpack when I use a backpack to carry other stuff I need anyway. Filling the entire thing to the brim with consumerist porn kinda defeats the whoie purpose of the backpack to begin with for me at least.
    Im probably going to get crap for this here but im sorry, this was a miss for me.

      Same philosophy with regular luggage when you travel or go on vacation. You don’t fill it to capacity when to leave home, just what you need due a couple changes which leaves you room to buy more if needed or space to put your souvenirs. Some people just throw away old clothes on vacation also which again leaves you room in the luggage due other things if needed.

    I always carry a roll up shopping bag or plastic bag in my urban edc bag, for ...carrying shopping. And a hank of cord, most often used for carrying larger boxes or slinging them over by shoulder.
    A small 250cc water bottle. About 1 cup of water for drinking and washing hands or knife blade.

    Regarding that backpack: Taylor, any chance you have dogs or cats that leave hair around? If so, how's the backpack's fabric when it comes to pet hair sticking to it? As you may know, some kinds of Cordura serve as pet hair magnets. Have you any insights on this backpack's fabric in this regard? Thanks in advance for any feedback, Taylor. I'm thinking of ordering this backpack.

      My carry is mostly urban (office, store, etc), so I don't feel the need for a full tool kit or first aid kit or survival kit. I do carry a small multitool (SOG Powerpint) or medium size SAK (Super Tinker) and a minimal first aid kit (bandaids, antiseptic, OTC pain relief). That covers 99% of my daily needs

    I could benefit from listing reasons you've needed some of these items. If you pack things you think are needed, do you have real world experience why they benefited you. That would help the listener when choosing items for their packs. Ex: multi-tools are cool but why have a multi-tool? Mechanics have socket sets for bolts on vehicles. That makes sense.
    If we're assembling bags to put what ifs in then ok pack the kitchen sink. If we pack purpose driven items that we know why we're packing them and are able to use them, that's a better video in my opinion.

    As an honorable mention, instead of carrying a handheld game console, I like to carry a deck of playing cards. My kids and I like to play cards, especially at restaurants while waiting for our food. But like your game device, I think a type of entertainment should be in a person's backpack, either a game device, board/card game, a book for reading or puzzles (crossword, word search, etc.)
    With notebook, maybe emergency contact info in case if your phone dies and can't memorize every number.
