An olight S1 mini. It is TINY! Even for CR123 light it's tiny. Brilliant though. 600 lumens on turbo, moonlight mode, 2 timer settings, decent UI with a side clicky switch, magnetic base, and the new battery has the micro USB port built in to it. Even has a 2 way pocket clip. Very impressed! I loved my Olight striker, the two way clip was a blessing. Shame I lost it. Link to post Share on other sites

I would speculate that they will stick one in the post for you, possibly no charge. I believe they have a decent reputation for customer service 😀 Link to post Share on other sites

Tw1tch Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 Haha excuse my ambiguous sentence structure. I lost the actual light on a very drunk night where I failed to clip it into my pocket and it fell out in the back of a taxi which was a street pickup so no trace of it. Currently using a 5.11 torch but there seems to be some issues with it sometimes not activating properly so going to speak to their CS ream. Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 So I've ordered myself a Bosé Soundlink Mini 2. Some contractors doing overnights at my place had one and it sounded like our clubs music system was on so can't wait to play with it. Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 We've had a Bose Soundlink Colour at work for about two and a half years now as a replacement for a radio, bloody fantastic sound for the size they are! Link to post Share on other sites

DeltaZero Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 We have a SoundLink 2.. absolutely fantastic quality we use it so often So handy and portable it goes everywhere with us. Battery life is great too. Bose kit might be a bit more on the expensive side but it's definitely worth it in my eyes. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 My dad raised me right with Bosé kit. It's such a shame he downsized and got rid of most of his stuff but at the time I had no space. Definitely what I want to kit my house out with when I become a homeowner. Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 I love the Bose IE2 earphones I picked up from the NAAFI in Afghanistan - best I've ever used.Wish I could afford to upgrade to the new noise-cancelling wireless ones, but they're *so* expensive... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Bose do put out OK stuff but it's massively overpriced. You're paying for the name, like Beats. They are amazing salesmen. They probably put more money into marketing than R&D. I would seriously advise doing a bit of research before spending any money on Bose stuff. Link to post Share on other sites
DeltaZero Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Headphones I would never buy Bose.. but their portable speakers are seriously at the top in my opinion especially for the size. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted May 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 My Anker Soundcore Sport XL is astonishing. And water resistant. And can charge my other devices. Link to post Share on other sites

I'll bear that in mind, not that surprised but at least they're overpriced but good, not just overpriced. The one I have was a gift from a supplier, so not my money! I like Anker stuff, so if I need one in the future I'll keep them in mind. Link to post Share on other sites
DeltaZero Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 I have an Anker Soundcore for use at work.. water/oil resistant so fits all my needs sound is pretty good also!
