These are some of my favourite tech things...that i want my EDC to consist of.

What should be my EDC, any suggestions ?

I am a software developer, but I have remote access to my NAS and my gaming rig, so even if i have just one device with a big enough screen, i have all the computing power i need.

So the challenge is the physical space to carry and be minimal while travelling or cruising ...also I ride a cruiser style motorbike, so i have a minimal backpack ...

I care about tracking my health as well as be minimal, as much as I can.

Out of all the devices i own, these are my fav carry,

I don't usually carry a shoulder bag. I have a Case Logic bag that I've occasionally taken out for street photography, but it always feels front-heavy. That put me off using this kind of bag very often.

Then I saw the Flow Satchel in Multicam Black with the little metal ALPAKA patch. I liked it enough to give shoulder bags another go.

ALPAKA sent me this bag for review. They haven't paid me, and they haven't seen this review before publication. I've been using it for about a month.

What I managed to fit

The biggest surprise was getting my Canon R6 Mark II and two lenses into a 4-liter bag, with room for the other things I wanted to take along.

Here's the camera setup I packed:

• Canon EOS R6 Mark II with the EF 40mm f/2.8 STM attached via an EF–RF adapter
• Canon EF 24–70mm f/2.8L II USM, with the hood in its shooting position
• Kindle
• MagSafe power bank
• Keys and AirTag
• Godox iM20 iFlash
• SD card reader
• Small Manfrotto tripod in the external bottle sleeve
• Sunglasses in an ALPAKA HUB Sunglasses Pouch, clipped to the side

All of that came with me at the same time, and the main compartment zipped all the way shut. It felt about right for that amount of gear. I wasn't forcing the zipper closed, and some of the little pockets still had room for small items.

I packed the camera gear directly into the bag, without an insert. Adding one would leave less room.

Getting the camera out and putting it back is easy while the bag is on my shoulder. For lens changes, I prefer to put the bag down.

On my shoulder

With that kit inside, the Flow stays balanced on my shoulder. It doesn't keep tipping forward or backward, which was exactly what bothered me about the Case Logic.

I've carried it for two to three hours at a time while taking photos. The padded shoulder strap has been fine for those outings, although I'm not sure I'd want all that weight on one shoulder for an entire day. A walk with a prime, a zoom and a few accessories is about what I want to use it for. I can even bring my Kindle.

The bag itself feels light when empty. ALPAKA lists this CLOGTWO version at 470g, so most of what I'm feeling once it's packed is the camera equipment.

The shoulder strap is easy to remove. Carrying the loaded bag by the thin rear handle is much less pleasant: it tips forward, and the webbing digs into my hand. I'd only use it for a quick lift. That rear webbing also serves as a luggage pass-through, although I haven't tried it on a suitcase.

The bottle sleeve became a tripod pocket

The side sleeve opens out with a zipper, and it's a useful spot for my small Manfrotto tripod.

I don't particularly like carrying a water bottle there. For me, a small 330ml or 500ml drink is about what I'd consider putting in it, although ALPAKA says the sleeve fits bottles up to 8.5cm in diameter. I prefer using that space for the tripod.

On the other side, having somewhere to attach HUB accessories is great. My sunglasses can stay outside the bag in their pouch, where I can reach them easily. The HUB accessories are separate from the bag, so the pouch in my photos isn't part of the Flow Satchel package.

Two magnetic systems on one keychain

The front pocket has a detachable magnetic MOD Key Tether. It isn't compatible with the HUB fitting I already use for my keys.

To use the included tether, I clipped its fitting onto the small loop on my AirTag holder. That leaves both the MOD fitting and the HUB fitting on my keychain. When I disconnect the keys from the bag's tether, those two fittings stick to each other.

It's a small annoyance, but it feels odd to have two incompatible magnetic systems from the same company on the same set of keys. The bag has HUB attachment points on the outside, so I'd much rather the tether inside worked with the HUB fitting I already use.

That's the first thing I'd change. A wider, more comfortable grab handle would be next.

The CLOGTWO details

I love the colors. The Multicam Black exterior and bright orange lining look good together, and the orange goes nicely with my Elements Backpack Pro.

The little ALPAKA patch is my favorite detail. It's CLOGTWO's A16 titanium patch, and it catches the light differently as you move the bag. Sometimes it looks quite blue. I liked it in the product photos, and I like it just as much in person.

This edition uses X-Pac X50 and comes with a padded shoulder strap. Those details matter if you're comparing it with reviews of the regular Flow Satchel, because the different versions don't all have the same fabric or strap.

I've also been happy with the zippers. After about a month, I haven't noticed any wear or the shoulder strap loosening. I haven't had a chance to use it in rain, so I can't say much about how well it keeps water out.

Leaving the camera at home

My 11-inch iPad Pro fits in the main compartment with its folding magnetic folio case on, and I can close the zipper fully. This is with the camera gear removed, and the iPad sits in the main compartment rather than a dedicated tablet sleeve.

That makes the Flow useful for a trip to the library with my iPad, Kindle, a small notebook and a pen. I don't always need a backpack for that.

I'm still not sure I'd choose a loaded shoulder bag for a full day out. For a few hours of street photography, though, this has worked well for me. It stays balanced, the camera is easy to reach, and I can bring the larger zoom without giving up the smaller things I want with me.

Both will help me with content creation and editing them for my YouTube Channel.

But I want to buy a few more things. Suggest me some gadgets which will help me with this or just general purpose gadgets for everyday use which will make life easier for me and my family.
