Final price. If it doesn’t go I will have to put a new handle on it & use it for craft.

As above. Original Imalent 3000mAh rechargeable battery 18650. Came with the torch & got put in a drawer & forgotten. Never been charged. Perfect condition . Now sold .

Very little used Rock & Run Down sleeping bag made by Rab. This was a spare bag for when it was too warm for my North Face one but in fact has only been slept in half a dozen times and always with a liner. Usual top quality construction from Rab, with thoughtful touches like a down filled...
