FULL DISCLOSURE:
This video is not sponsored nor did I receive any money. While I sometimes get bags for free, I have to pay custom fees, shipping fees and all my videos have lots of production costs (e.g. software and musicrights). Therefore I invest my own money into all of these videos and I have no intention to be biased towards a product or company. Every review and quicklook is written by me and no company can pay for preferential scheduling or what is said in the video. Furthermore, the company sees the video the same time as all viewers here on youtube. All opinions in this video are my own unless stated otherwise.
ETHICS STATEMENT • Earning money and ethi...
HOW I REVIEW:
As you might know from my „How I make a buying decision“ video: Rather than just looking at the pros, I like to evaluate the cons or flaws of an item and then evaluate if I can live with them. That is why in my video reviews I concentrate more on the cons of an item rather than going over all the features. Therefore everything shown is just a fraction of all the points that go into the verdict and score of an item.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A QUICKLOOK AND A REVIEW:
A Quicklook usually covers pre-production units or items that I only used for a short period of time. While Reviews cover final items that I have reviewed intensively.
LINKS:
For all my videos I decided not to include links for the products. Everyone is living in different countries and therefore has to deal with different shipping and customs fees. That is why I would advice everyone just to Google the product within their country to find the best deals. For instance: I live in Germany, It wouldn’t make sense to give you a German link while you might be living in USA or Asia. I hope that is understandable.

Hero clips come in clutch!! Awesome video Bo! If a bag is not already weather treated then the spray is also a solid upgrade too!
Thanks for watching and commenting ✌️😉
We're so glad you're loving the Stern Link! Thanks for sharing!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching 😉 ✌️
That light looks like a really good item! I love that it charges with USB-C. Good job EU for going to a one charging port policy.
Yeah, moving to one connector is great. But I honestly dislike usbc a lot. It's very fragile, and I already have a few devices with very loose ports to which the cables won't hold properly.
@@Youknowthebo Yeah, it's not great, but is there a better port? MicroB was even more fragile and Lightning is very exposed on the plug side (plus nasty fees required to Apple to use it).
I honestly would have stuck with a USB a Form factor. Maybe that is also reversable. USB a has a lot of physical size to be durable and "grippy" while not being too big Imho. At least for hard drives etc I think this is the better connector. For phones this obviously is too big. But I don't mind having two connectors moving everything to one connector isn't a good solution Imho. Different horses for different courses 😉
Have the same Heroclip and agree it’s very useful and takes up almost no space
Yeah, they are pretty dope. I might need to get some smaller ones in the future as well
Great vid... Just ordered a Heroclip.
I had a topo designs bag and after that I starting putting paracord pulls with heatshrink tubes on all my bags. Makes it way easier to manage. I’ve been meaning to find a good tailor or carpenter that can replace my plastic buckles with fidlocks.
That's just how I customized my zipper pulls in my zipper tutorial video. Makes all zipper pulls so much better
I think a carpenter could make you wooden buckles but that’s about it lol
The slash pocket in goruck bags are super deep and therefor usable with a pouch, but not with loose items. My fix? Halfway I added a strip of velcro tape to un-deepen the pack. It can still be velcro’d open, but also if you would like to use it for keys or other quick access items. It now works as well. Really nice simple adjustment this velcro-tape, super happy I stumbled onto this idea through reddit
That's an awesome mod. How did you attach the velcro inside? Sewing in that pocket might be really difficult
@@Youknowthebo thanks for replying!! Just used (sticky) tape with velcro! Its super simple and idd awesome :D
Lockpad, carabineer & steel cable lock for extra security. Maybe some tracking device too on smaller bag.
One mod I do if my bag doesn't have a elastic band to keep the shoulder adjuster straps from flapping around is use zip ties or the plastic cable ties to secure them to the other strap, hate them flapping around on a motorcycle or bicycle, LOL I'm bicycling more since I don't have a motorcycle or car right now and its good cross training for my running.
Zip ties are the best 👍
Love this list. Great curated items!
Thanks, Natalia ✌️😉
The swedish Bookmann Eclipse light is wearable and quite an amazing little light. Only for being seen, it attaches to just about anything; bags clothes and so on.
Cool. I will Google it. Thanks, Peter.
@@Youknowthebo They do make others that are very cool as well.
I have used the nitecore for a long time now and it is great, I swap it out to different bags and slings occasionally, I should probably just buy a few more 😂
Good to know, that I haven't been the only one using those lights on bags yet 👍👍
In all honesty, when I originally bought it, it was to sit on a watchstrap to utilise at nighttime, but… It was a bit too bulky for that… so it lasted less than five minutes and at the time, I’d just got a new bag… so I thought I’d put it on that instead.
Really good choice. thanks.
Thanks for watching 😉 ✌️
Try this lights they are more versatile, have greater visibility at night - GUARDIAN ANGEL ELITE or GUARDIAN ANGEL MICRO.
Have you tried waterproofing 1000d GR1 or 500D ?
What are your thoughts on sternum strap with cobra buckle?
Thanks
Going to pick up that light since I've been doing early morning workouts more often. Bo, any chance you'll sell any patches? I've been waiting to pick up one
I don't sell the patches anymore. They are now part of my Patreon. You get one once you enter the "you know the originals" tier. But if only want the patch, you can obviously sign up once and then cancel after a month
Great video as usual. I was wondering what is the coin that you have been showing in more recent videos?
Thanks, Lacie. The coin is part of my Patreon. On one of my tiers you get specific achievements. One of them is this challenge coin.
How well does waterproofing spray work in heavy rain? I’m guessing water would eventually get in, especially on a motorcycle?
Waterproofing spray (as far as I know) has some repellent properties plus "fills up" those microscopic gaps in fabrics. So it does help keeping water out for some time. But with winds on highways or prolonged rain, water will get inside eventually. Nothing is waterproof Imho just because water can get through gaps or seams eventually. Those Ortlieb bags are waterproof because there is almost no seam at all and everything is "glued" (not sure about the correct term) together and it has a rolltop closing.
So long story short: waterproofing spray helps but is unfortunately not a 100% solution for those extreme rain situations
is the hero clip all metal?
I add a carabiner/nite ize and a Peak Design Capture Clip
Yes, s biners are amazing. I have them on all my slingbags. Got a video about them on my channel. And the PeakDesign camera clip is cool, but I haven't gotten a chance to test it yet. Mainly because all my cameras have Manfrotto mounts on them
Hey Bo! Will you be reviewing the new kompak by black ember?
I'd love to. But I haven't planned it yet
I add Apple AirTag to my bag, just in case if it get lost 🙂
Good idea. I am an android user though. I use a couple of Chipolo tags
Keren mas bondan !
Terimah kasih ✌️😉
I have a hero clip for a while too. Rarely use the hook to be honest
I predominantly use it when traveling. In day to day situations I don't mind just laying my bag on the floor (eg. In the office)
Very nice 👍
Thank you very much, Athar
What is the fanny pack/sling bag you used in this video? Also thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching. I think you can see two different slings in the video. One is the Heimplanet th-cam.com/video/bl9tSymMqhs/w-d-xo.html and the other is the AER th-cam.com/video/supOiag5HNM/w-d-xo.html
@@Youknowthebo Thank you for the prompt response!
What is the red light on your black ember forge?
It's a bicycle light. Unfortunately it is discontinued
I used to love hero clips but ordered a special edition one a few years ago and I never received it. Their customer service was terrible. Never received what I ordered or a refund.
Damn. That sucks. Thanks for sharing your experience. I got mine from Amazon, so I never dealt with the brand directly
Hi, where can I buy the Hero Clip?
Thanks
You can get them on Amazon. I will put some links in the description later today
@@Youknowthebo Thanks❤
When you have more bags then your wife, there's something wrong there🤔😂
😂 agreed
