Sale on at New Forest Clothing - lots of good discounts on men's women's and kid's outdoor clothing. More geared towards field and country wear than lightweight but some great kit:

Heads up. Sale at Polimil
Just purchased a Snugpak Softie 12 Osprey from here for £85.50.

Been on the look out for a new winter bag, so cheers for the heads up with this

Seem to be going for around £135 to £155 on all other sites, so I have had a bargain here.

Cheers,

Allan

I got some leather off the back of your post above TeeDee, thanks for that goodjob - Also snagged some axes at a great price.

PlanetX X have a sale on at the moment, and there's a waterproof backpack that's a bargain, I've got one, and it's great for water or really bad weather stuff..

Awesome - good enough for use on a SUP?

I’ve seen the videos of you on a SUP, you ought to be asking if it would be good enough for scuba diving :D
Depends on the particular branch of SUP at the time. :bigok:

Anyway, I bought one - in manky camo so that I can distinguish it from all the other black bags - as it looks like it has suitable tie down points.

I'm tempted, simplicity of use could be an issue, can it be operated one handed.?

yes, its all single, double, triple click, and 6x click to reset colour etc. all one handed apart from the cap unscrew
magnetic tail cap, side clip

also it becomes a 5000mah battery bank as the usb c is reversible...


bit heavy to head mount for the side light, but i head mounted the spotlight on my maglite strap. its main advantage is multi purpose.

i bought a £2 mini rgb light that is a good micro edc headlight as well...

Cool. Nearly jumped on one of these after seeing a thread on BudgetLightForum. Haven’t been put off buying one, though I’d have preferred losing the powerbank function and have an 18650 battery instead. Lot of people mentioning the easy switch activation and the annoying auto-lockout rather than fitting a recessed switch.

Sofirn are still at the top of the game for quality/function/price. And they listen to the feedback and improve features.

@Robbi, BLF thread here, with video review.
