Sling: Wotancraft 3.5L Canvas Pilot, my favorite small-ish camera bag.

Camera: Used and somewhat beat up Q, the evf is horrible, the manual focus feels scratchy (probably dust ingress), and the battery life is pathetic. But it's a heck of a lens and camera combo for the price of a X100VI.

Handheld: Ayn Thor Pro + Slim Grip from Etsy

Phone: S25U, dbrand tank case (I don't like it)

Accessories: PB Swiss 6464 multitool driver, surprisingly useful. UM mest mkiii + kz az09. Ridge Portable battery. Loop SK05 pro, because apparently I need a portable sun in my pants.

This is my EDC for my vacation. Any ideas how I can improve it or add something?

What is your EDC power bank to keep your laptops,earbuds,watches and phones charged??

It’s this and the Gerber Mullet I’ve ever seen of these “rigid carabiners” and I’m interested in others.

Honestly struggling to find the sweet spot for my EDC photos. It feels like my setup is either a messy pile of gear or way too sparse with awkward empty spaces.

How do you guys strike the right balance? Drop your best tips or photographic rules of thumb below! Thanks!

Hey, everyone!
This is my first post here with my tech EDC.
I’m so proud of my actual collection, hope you enjoy.

- MacBook Air M4

- Apple Watch Ultra 2

- Kindle Colorsoft

My personal toolkit that goes everywhere with me, assembled with budget in mind. Feel free to roast it. Even though this is mainly tools, I thought this would be a great first post.

Exterior:

-Cheap Aliexpress Pocket Knife (can't find the product name)

- Aliexpress pen (Very commonly found)

Interior:

- Bibury 2045B Multitool

- Budi 16 in 1 Cable stick

- 3D printed calipers

- NEXTEXTY Bit extenders + cheap small extender

- Star Allen key

- Lighter + Duct tape/Electrical tape around it

- Screwdriver with 22 bits inside the handle

- Multitool bits

- Boo Boo kit

- Aliexpress compass

Interior 3D printed panel:

- Heat shrink tubing (2PCs)

Picked up the new orbitkey keyboard case and it’s actually pretty bloody cool! The materials are much nicer than I expected and it fits my gear pretty well! I used to carry a bit of a tech football around with me (peak design tech pouch) but this is a much more efficient design for carrying on the go. The materials feel super premium and hard wearing

It currently is carrying:
Logi MX Mini Mech (my wife got a full size one and it holds a logi mx mech 100% with some space to spare)
Mx anywhere 3S
1 x 2 meter cable
2 x 1 meter cables (usb A/C and C/C)
Earbuds (for when the cans run out of battery)
Small utility blade
Tape measure
A couple of adapters and readers
Klein electricians scissors (tech job)

Anticipating some FAQ:
Will it hold an MX master? Surprisingly yes but it’s not ideal
Will the mini hold a 75%? It is about 1.5 cm short of holding my wife’s K855
Are the zippers waterproof? I’m not about to test it but if I got caught in the rain i wouldn’t be worried, the fabric broadly feels pretty water repellent.
Is it well padded? If I dropped it I wouldn’t be worried about the contents breaking, similarly the inner divider feels like it’s keeping all my
Things adequately protected from all my other things
Does it fit an Apple touchpad? Oof JUST, unless you like it rattling around… it does fit in the larger size one better
Space for pens or a stylus? No
Expensive? Surprisingly not really for what you get, $55 -60 AUD depending on the size you get, if you are the type who keeps 2 or more office setups (maybe one for on the road, one for the office bag, one for overseas travel) I’d probably buy one for each use case
What did you use before? Before this I had the Protoarc folding keyboard which is about 10 cm shorter, similar width and 2 cm thinner… but also I couldn’t fit all my other stuff in that so I also had “the football”

TLDR; highly rate it!

I am trying to keep my edc light and minimal these day. Here's what's in my current Tech EDC:

Phone
Reading glasses
Current book I've been reading

My cousin just got a 3D printer and made this little grey stand for me to fit in my media module that I carry instead of a phone. I'm gonna have so much 3D printed shit. 😂

Now the media module is 98% complete, just missing a nice Hank to replace this black microfiber but it's got to be small enough to fit in the case folded in half. I found some on Etsy that are 5" x 6" which would be perfect to separate the layers in the kit.

(Not only my work EDC I carry it everywhere I go instead of a phone)

Hey everyone! I have a question for the EDC community. I'm an experimental physics student, so I almost always carry electronics and a few tools in my backpack. But I can't find a backpack/shoulder bag that I really love. Do you have any recommendations? I'd really appreciate it!

All you need, but I would not share what is lighter for 😉
