Looks very good Raul thanks.
Faaaark, that's one hell of a price though ![]()
Using up more offcuts.
Waterproof phone covers.
To protect the camera lens when sliding inside the shoulder pocket especially or the shorts pocket and for wet weather.
Actually a nice lipstick red.
Three grams each.
Thanks schrenz.
That's good to know.
Thanks.
How do you find the Anker?
The 6K will be (should be?) much chea per on you know where...
Benutzt eigentlich jemand die Nitecore Carbon battery 6K oder das größere Modell 12K ?
Relation Kapazität - Gewicht sieht nicht schlecht aus, da es sich ja anscheinend um einen simplen Umbauten 18650 Akku handelt (oder zwei im Fall der 12K), klein & dick ist für die Hosentasche ggf. gar nicht schlecht zu guter letzt könnte ich das Modell auch gut als Zusatztank für meine Stirnlampe NU43 nutzen, auch wenn deren Akku bei 24h Wanderungen tatsächlich eine komplette Nacht durchhält, wäre es zumindest ein beruhigendes Gefühl 😁.
Hi
Did you happen to buy the 6K? It looks very good.![]()
Apart from the charge time of 3.5 hours![]()
OSMAnd ist auch eine Hassliebe. Es kann gefühlt alles, aber man muss sich jedes mal wieder einarbeiten.
Und lernt immer was neues.
Zum Wandern benutze ich meistens auch dieses Profil: https://github.com/OsmAnd-Rendering/HikingUnd für Wildcamper vielleicht auch noch ein guter Tipp, man kann recht easy die Kartendaten von Naturschutzgebieten vom BFN als Overlaykarte hinzufügen. Dann sieht man das nochmal deutlich besser, da es in den normalen Styles oft untergeht.
Einfach neue Online Quelle hinzufügen:
I have that enabled on mine and like it also.
Wenn die Pumpe/Batterien versagen, kann man immer noch als Backup provisorisch den Liner, ein Drybag oder den Mund nehmen.
Yeah, I agree 750.
I always carry this modified Nylofume bag (I cut the corner off and attached the hose) as the top sort of dry bag in my ruckie anyway- for protection and inflating.
Two bags full does my Neo air with a couple of puffs from me.
It weighs 32 grams all up but, I'm getting lazy.
The Flextail Zero with rechargeable battery ( I answered my own question) is 45 grams, I've just found which seems a good deal.
The Gigapump is only a few dollars more, but needs a battery.
I'm looking now for the best and lightest 5000 mAh battery to compare?
Please, does anyone know which is the lightest of the mechanical inflators which includes a rechargeable battery?
That is, total weight of inflator and battery.
I keep seeing the ones that require an external battery.

Still would like to know if anyone knows the answer to the question below please.
Also, does anyone have real world experience with the batteryless versions-and can say which is the lightest on your phone battery when using your phone as a charger?
Thanks kindly.
Just finished this one from Challenge and Venom stretch mesh and 250d Korean nylon leftovers.
Nearly all scraps/leftovers, but I did buy the side compression cord from the hardware shop for about a euro for 50 m.![]()
Also added ladder locks for a waist belt just in case I want to use one (attached them using 25mm webbing I cut from an old ruckie). They cost four for 2 euros also from the hardware shop.
Holds two one litre water botles on each side. Shoulder pockets take my monster Pixel Pro in it's huge case.
70h(unrolled) X 30w X 20d. Lights indoors make it look much shinier than it really is.
345 grams.
nivi Christian Wagner Walkin' und alle Upcycling-Freunde. Ich fühle mich inspiriert meine Restekiste zu leeren und einen Tages-Rucksack zu nähen. Habt ihr Erfahrungswerte, ab wann ein Stoff zu dünn ist? Ich habe einige Stoffreste um die 30-40g/qm, die ich für Windjacken oder Apexkleidung verwendet habe. Meint ihr das geht, wenn ich die Nähte gut einfasse? Der Rucksack wird mit maximal 4-5kg belastet werden. Davon bis zu 3 Liter in Form von einer Wasserflasche rechts und link in den Seitentaschen.
Hi Kay,
Maybe.
It sort of depends on the fabric and your ability to make a seam/s?
You have Nylon or Silpoly in the 15D or 20D gauge? Is that right?
Making sure the shoulder str aps don't rip off the body would be quite a challenge. Make samples and start trying to rip them.
Whatever you do, I'm really looking forward to see what you come up with.
Cheers
What the Hack ist ein UPF Rating?
'UPF' rating is for clothes/fabrics.
'SPF' rating is for topical lotions.![]()
For what it's worth, some vendors/companies guess and claim a 'UPF' rating. In many countries this is illegal.
The garment, if a UPF is claimed, must have a prominent, (The most common and respected is official Australian and New Zealand) accreditation test rating.
UPF can also vary from fabric colour to fabric colour as well also be negatively affected if wet.
Such as the current version AS/NZS 4399:2020
UV levels of 15-16 fairly regularly in many parts of Australia.

Some more test findings from OSMand that I couldn't find in the directions. I used a nother app that has since been de-commissioned hence my trialling this for some walks soon
--'Altitude adjustment' in Maps is (likely) broken.
I've been using the straight 'GPS altitude' and although I've not gone over 70 metres all is quite accurate so far.
I usually use a stick to stir my chai...
--You must leave 'Allow Background Useage' on for a track to be recorded when phone 'sleeps'.
Evviva!
Connected to 43 of 45 satellites showing at 43 metres on OSMand this morning.
Light rain and no real breeze. A lovely coffee time.
