    ... I once had a Spigen mobile case for my BlackBerry phone. During the lock down approx May 2020 I contacted Spigen by email as my case had broken stitching came loose etc and woah and behold there's was a brand new mobile case delivered to my door within 2 weeks of so. Customer service is 10/10!

    I believe the little turtle (beside being a reminder of micro plastics in the oceans) is to rest your utensils upon, so that the part you put in your mouth not need come in contact with the dining top surface.
    And then a minor correction/information: DLC when used in relation to PVD (Plasma Vapor Deposition) usually means Diamond-Like Carbon - not Coating.
    Great video, and would love to se other colour/color themed gear collections and reviews.

    Edc27 is a real winner.
    What’s crazy about it is that the 1000 lumen mode actually runs till the battery dies.
    Like not even many larger lights cannot hold 1000 lumens for more than a few minutes. And I’m not talking about turbo.
    It’s built in heat sink is really innovative
    The 3000 lumen burst is just icing on the cake

    A great option for a more affordable watch would be the G-Shock DW-5600BB-1ER. It’s the completely blacked out version from the classic 5600 range. It even has the negative display and is a rock solid as you’d expect from a G-Shock. It can be found for around £80. Very happy with mine.

    I was gonna run to get that knife until I heard it doesn't lock. I could never carry a knife without a lock. Call me paranoid, but I would let be able to use it for anything without constantly worried about it closing on my hand

      @philipknowles1 Год назад

      If you don’t like non-locking knives then you’d hate those double detent ones. It takes almost no force to close them, even compared to a normal slip joint. If you’re after a UK legal knife then maybe look at the Spyderco UKPK or the Twisted Assisted Junzi. They don’t lock but the inclusion of a finger choil means that your fingers should be protected even if it did start to close on you. Both very nice knives.

  • @solidus1995
    @solidus1995 Год назад +3

    Be careful with that nitecore. It's been burning holes in people's pockets and melting itself, even burning some folks. The lockout can unlock and get stuck on turbo.
    I recently was in the market for these flat edc lights specifically because I had a nitecore tini 2 which cracked on the screen when I dropped my keys. Ultimately I decided on the streamlight wedge. It's just solid and gets you 1000 Lumens max. No strobe but also no melted pockets; some things are a trade off.

    • @JonGadget

      It has two lockout options and not easy to unlock accidentally - turbo needs constant pressure too - so hard to imagine how this would cause this problem

    I want to point out something pretty important. The longevity of the magnetic strip, chips and other elements can be impaired if scraped against each other under the force of a thick rubber band. Therefore, the above wallet effectively limits this type of wear. (And of course, cards always seem to pick an inopportune time to break - maximizing embarrassment potential.)

    I thought I heard one odd thing and replayed it a couple of times to be sure. You gave the weight of the clipper as 38 g or 2.3 oz. I couldn’t find any other data about the item’s weight online, but 38 g would be 1.3 oz (2.3 oz would be 66 g). I suspect you meant to say 1.3 oz.

    hi Jon when you say flick knife i presume you mean switchblade which would mean automatic knife, if you have to touch the blade at all its not an automatic knife, hence still legal carry in UK otherwise any knife with assisted opening namely hole like spyderco or thumb stud. they would be classing flick knife.

    First, as always, let me say, great video and great choices of excellent gear.
    I hate to harp on this but I was shocked at 4:26. Your laws over there... When they've outlawed knives, what will be next? Screwdrivers? Hammers? Pliers? Wrenches/Spanners? Cricket bats? I can understand people being afraid of guns, these days a lot of people have never handled one and people fear the unknown. But doesn't everyone use a knife in the kitchen every day? A fixed blade knife with a blade over three inches long? Why are the UK government and courts so afraid of tools with edges?

    • @JonGadget
      @JonGadget  Год назад +1

      It does seem heavy handed in response to what is mainly young people carrying knives (usually kitchen knives) 'to protect themselves' - a confrontation can then result in a stabbing instead of a punch up. Legislation then impacts negatively on the vast majority who are now more at risk without a locking mechanism when using a knife legitimately..

    Knives feature in most of your reviews which is understandable. You are always very careful to say whether or not the knife you are discussing is legal for carry in this country (England and Wales) which is obviously extremely important information. As you point out from time to time, the law on this is complicated. Apart from whether the blade locks or not, the other criteria you always mention is that the blade length must be less than 3 inches. The legislation certainly does apply this test to the blade but is it not the "cutting edge" that has to be less than 3 inches rather than the whole blade? This may be important, e.g. in the case of some Victorinex pen knives where the blade is non locking but longer than 3 inches. However the cutting edge is less than 3 inches so it is, I believe, potentially legal to carry. In my opinion, the legislation on this in England and Wales is illogical and over complex but we are stuck with it. I think your videos are excellent and really enjoy them. Thank you for all the work you put into this.

    • @JonGadget

    "We banned flick knives like that."
    "What!? Why?"
    "Have you seen how fun a knife like that is to use? Can't be having that."
    7:47 (Rhetoric question)How many people in the UK do you think throw plastic straws and cutlery in the ocean? I mean, you can look how many of them you find on the street, and there's not that many of them. I always found it weird how people say "do your bit for the environment to save marine wildlife". Well, I do my bit for the environment every time I throw plastic items in the bin. I also do my bit when I pay the council to clean the streets. And despite all this, there is still a ridiculous amount of plastic that ends up in the sea. Has anyone wondered why? Could it maybe be because *_the government_* is shipping all this garbage overseas so it can fall off boats or end up in countries that do not care about the environment? I don't understand why I need to do the government's bit as well, considering I am paying them for it. If the government wants me to stop using disposable plastic, then they better lower my taxes since they no longer need the extra money to handle all that plastic.
    I really wish people started realizing who is really to blame for garbage in the seas.
