Product Sourcing:
When it comes to sourcing a product for review, I will usually either purchase and item personally or reach out to a supplier requesting a sample for review. Most suppliers, after seeing the channel, are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.
I am sometimes asked to review a product by a supplier which I will only agree to if the product fits the channel and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. Also the product needs to be worthy of a review. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many requests are politely declined.
Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding. Even with sponsored reviews I will only agree to a sponsorship on products and services which I believe will be of genuine interest to viewers.
I will always make reference in the video to products which have been provided for review by a supplier and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the review in any way if they choose to supply a product.
Sometimes a supplier will provide a link to the product or the supplier which I am happy to include in the description. Sometimes I will be provided with an affiliate link so I can earn a commission on sales and this helps to support channel costs but never at the expense of an honest review.
If a product I have reviewed is available from Amazon I will often include an Amazon link in the description. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase a product or service with the links that I provide I may receive a small commission. There is no additional charge to you.
Comments:
I really appreciate the feedback in the comments - I find it a source of knowledge and inspiration - so thank you to all of you who take the time to contribute. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes time away from being able to produce new content which would be very counter productive! - so my aim is to read everything I can and reply when I can, after each video goes live, until the next video goes live a week later. I'll see how that works out 😊
All the best Jon Gadget - Jak na to + styl
I keep coming back to this. This is easily my favourite EDC kit video on CZcams. It fits the EDC mantra of "the best equipment for any situation is the one you have with you" perfectly.
I have come back like 10 times to this EDC/video. Other more tactical channels are just absurd, this kit is one of the best I have seen. I have emulated it +/- personal modifications. Great job!!!
Great to hear that - I pleased it's been of use
This is handsdown the best no bullshit EDC I‘ve seen so far. Such useful stuff! Thank you very much your EDC is honestly perfect to me
great to hear - thank you
Finally, a sensible guide to EDC that doesn't require a full MOLLE pack. Most of the EDC vids out there go heavy and bulky so as to require a bag. There are very few vids, like this one, that help put together realistic EDC. Thank you.
And they still claim it fits seamlessly behind your ear and you won't even notice it
@@moslimislam5714 😄
The tweezers in your swiss army knife will work just fine for ticks. Just don't use so much pressure that the head comes off.
I've taken loads off Stanley the dog - really need to get 'underneath them' - worried the tweezers might squeeze too much!
Great video Jon! . Another thing you might want to add to the kit.. Velcro strips..lightweight and doesn't take much space. You could need to close shirt, pants, jacket if you've lost the button 🤷🏻♂️
@@JonGadget It should be ok as long as you pull quickly, don’t squeeze too much before pulling, and pull perpendicular to the skin. The last one is the most important as people pulling at a bad angle seems to be the most common failure when using tweezers. I used to use a dedicated tick remover but have found tweezers to be more effective when used correctly. The Victorinox tweezers are fairly sharp though and are more difficult, so perhaps maybe even just carrying a pair of mini tweezers that are more blunt could be most effective as I personally would prefer those over the tick remover you added now, although it’s certainly still a fine option.
just burn them off with ciggy
Especially with the lighter. Heat them up first and ticks don't like that, they tend to squirm from heat and usually unlatch as a result. At least from my limited experience.
of all the EDC channels I have found I love how much detail you go into as to why you choose the products you choose I can't wait to see your other kits. Thanks for the idea's !
Thanks for the kind comments 😊
Brilliant as always! Thanks for all the time you put into these videos and their descriptions.
Thanks for that! It does take some time, but worth it when I read the comments 👍
A whistle would be a great addition. I myself don't know how to whistle loudly, if I ever need to call someone far away I wouldn't be able to, and if you know how to but is injured in some sort of way, a whistle can be a life saver.
agree - I carry one in my outdoor kit 👍
As always, another wonderful video! I’m definitely considering adding the self-amalgamating tape, high powered magnet and SAK Manager to my EDC kit and/or pouch. I absolutely love your videos! They’re extremely intriguing and very informative! Your explanations as to what each item is and their possible uses is invaluable! Thank you! Cheers!
Really appreciate the feedback Aaron - thank you!
Sir, I am only just now finding your channel. Your style is excellent! You give relevant information along with your opinion in a no nonsense direct way. Highly entertaining and informative! Thank you.
One of the best edc kits I've seen. Will be making use of my extra maxpedition pouches for this
This is a wonderful concept of survival EDC! thanks for sharing this one Jon.
you're welcome John
This is what I need. Glad to have found you brother.
I absolutely love your vids. You have helped me so much in the past year. Just wanted to say thanks
Finally someone who is not only doing a UK-centric EDC but also using common sense as to what to include. Too many EDC fans seem to hope they'll need to become Rambo one day, rather than simply having to sort a mundane problem by having a realworld solution to hand. The only other bits I have in my urban kit are a couple of individualy sealed compressed towel tablets and I also favour the KableCARD - whilst the overall footprint is larger, it is thinner and less chunky, so I can fit it into my mini pouch.
One last comment, as you have mentioned the Topo Design Accesory pouch (micro) is now impossible to get in the UK and the EU; however, the replacement idea (Alpaka) is also proving to be problematic and the seller you link to wants to charge nearly the same price as the pouch for postage! If anyone has any other suggestions, UK based, with a similar footprint, it would be great to hear them!
Keep the great work - excellent delivery, information and channel.
Agree it's good to see a UK focused kit with everyday issues dealt with rather than frirearms and huge blade focus (both of which we cannot carry in the UK). With regard to the pouch have a look at Aiguille Alpine Equipment they are based in UK/Cumbria and produce v high quality kit. Acrylic canvas pouches or their Contour bag are around the size of the Topo/Alpaka. If you want to combine town and country gear with a small sol bivvy and a plastic sheet as a tiny tarp then we use the Marsupium as there's enough room for kit to walk from London to get home (although not the best night you'll spend out under the stars)
I love this kit. I commute by train several days a week, and a kit very much like this (slightly bigger) is now always in my laptop backpack.
An observation about the zip tie of the mini BIC lighter: Be sure to choose the correct size. I first chose a zip tie that was one size too narrow, and it actually did not block the movement of the button completely. I rather went for a size that just barely fit, and had to be slightly forced to fit. The nice thing about that is that the zip tie do not have to be completely snug. I pulled it tight around the body of the lighter, and then slid it up and nudged it in place. That way you do not have to cut the zip tie to use the lighter, as it can be slid down on the body to use and then up again to block the button again.
great idea !
I don't know where I'd be without my midnight manager. Good to see them get a mention as useful edc items. 👍
Absolutely
You sir, deserve more subscribers. Your content, including delivery, are 10/10 in my opinion.
Sorry for slow reply! and thanks for the very kind comment 👍
Great channel Jon and I absolutely love your studio.
You sir are the EDC king!
Excellent additions, Jon!! I will be adding those to my kit as well!
Glad it was helpful Molly
Thank you for sharing these amazing compact useful EDC Jon❤️🇬🇧
My pleasure!
Awesome video! Lots of functionality packed in that kit and some really cool products. Thanks for the Cablekit shoutout.
Thank you. No problem - I am a big fan 👍
Nicely updated Jon, thanks for sharing buddy
Thank you 😊
The best EDC. kit.
Thank You for this video. Very usefull for me.
Excellent load out!
This is a great idea, Jon. Whether I buy the pack you suggested or get my own. Then fill it with some of your suggested items + ones for my own needs. I guess the trick is to focus on essentials and not let it get too heavy or too big. Thanks
yes, exactly that
Yay thanks for finding even better credit card sleeves with a link. Appreciate it :)
No problem!!
Excellent video, as always.
Just now I was about to put together my EDC, and this video has come to me at the right time.
Greetings from Chile
Great 👍
Maaan i just found ur channel and its bloody great, i love that u take ur time explaining everything, it's not rushed at all and that's my favorite part =) keep up the great work
I appreciate that! Thanks for the feedback
I would add a sandwich/freezer bag - the really thin type. It will keep everything dry, can be used as a glove, as a poo bag, and also hold a ltr or water 👍
I stopped carrying the tick card a couple years ago. I always end up using tweezers, and my phone has a magnifier. I *do* carry a very good quality pair of small, tapered cosmetic tweezers instead of the EDC fave ones that are too pointy to be of much use. I’ve removed many ticks from dogs and kids and myself using proper tweezers as opposed to any task-specific tool. Thanks for putting all the work into sharing this. Such a practical, valuable set up. And a great quality video!
Hi, although I did not use the same pouch as you, this idea still transfers I believe. I swapped out the small piece of Paracord on my zip pull to the Paracord that has the fire tinder core inside. Just one more discreet source of fire extender that takes up no extra room than before! Hope this idea is of use to anyone.
Thanks Jon. Great kit
Love the Super Glue Idea! ✅
glad it was useful
As usual, great presentation!
So much inspiration, as per usual! Thanks!
Hope you're keeping well Eyal.
@@JonGadget Kind of you to say Sir 😊 I have relatives from Kharkiv that got to Israel in time, but they are concerned for their friends and property. That's been occuping us lately 😅
Watching videos is my stress reliever and your channel has a big part in it!!
Great video Once again Jon! Thanks for the tips.
Thanks Billy
Awesome video thank you! I picked up several of the items including the little flashlight 😎🙏
Thanks Jon. Very useful. I am going to start putting together my kit. Cheers.
Excellent - have fun
Great little flashlight there. Thanks for sharing that amazing piece with us. Can't wait for mine.
you're welcome John
I love it, got a different version, but man that thing is bright....
Jon, you’re my EDC guru.🌀
Great idea using clear credit card holders for organizing flat items for EDC. Stay safe!
Very functional kit! 👍🏼
Thanks Mark
Not just your typical*EDC* video, you had some unusual suggestions _and_ you really made me think.
Thanks Jon, I have just subscribed!
Apologies for the slow response - thanks for the sub and welcome to the channel 👍
Enjoyed this video, a lot. Thank, Jon!
You're welcome
I'm never sure why these types of kits contain a bic lighter rather than a clipper. As any recreational smoker knows, the clipper is refillable, you can replace the flint and the flint holder can be removed as an additional dibber/poker for when needed.
I'm going to explore this...thanks for feedback which echos some others
Non smokers have no idea 😂 every time I roll a joint with a clipper, and someone is there, they’re so surpris d to see how much of an all in one tool it is.
As a smoker and an outdoor enthusiast i can tell you the difference between Bic and Clipper. BIC are much more reliable the clippers in terms of a firemaker. There thousands of not well manufactured clippers out there. They got problems with the valve etc. In an urban environment this is not a problem, actually i'm using clippers in the city because of the mentioned pros in the comments before. BUT in the Wild is BIC the better choices. The guaranty of 3000 flame strike and the valve are much better and much more resistant because of the parts used to produce them.
@@sokol7215 good to know, thanks.
If you don't smoke, how often do you really need a lighter. I used to have a refillable one. I never smoked though so I don't need it when I am walking around.
Really great and sensible kit as usual, you’re an inspiration as you’re always knocking these things out of the park.
For plastic sleevs in my kit I use Dragon Shield sleeves, they’re meant for card games like Pokemon or Magic the Gathering snd should be found in most stores that sells board games. They’re pretty durable and come in like 20 different color (transparent front and solid colored back) which is useful for color coding inside your kit.
They come in boxes of 100 sleeves, usually meant to sleeve up an entire deck of cards but for EDC purposes it will last you a long time.
Thanks for the great feedback - will check out the sleeves, thanks for the suggestion
Excellent suggestion - went to my local games shop and picked up an 80 sleeve pack for peanuts. Great solution.
Definitely going to consider adding a high-power magnet and that self-amalgamating tape to my edc kits! Great video as always!
Glad it was useful Dylan
The is always a need for some cordage , particularly for the high power magnet. Kevlar cord is cheap, very strong and very fine.Why not plait a zipper pull from kevlar to not add to the bulk of pack.
Great video. I always discover something useful to add to my EDC.
Good to hear! Thanks Brian
Probably the best urban EDC video to see. Clear and full og good ideas
This was a great Victorinox ad... convinced me
Luv your vids here in the us such a soothing tone in your voice
thanks 😊
Sugru is a moldable fixit that turns solid after molding. New handle, button, phone stand, corner gaurds... Really genius mcgyver type stuff. Great vid ty!
New specs? Very nice! Thanks for this Jon, quickly coming my favourite EDC/gadget channel! Especially as you’re in the UK too so you have to contend with the same rules and regs.
Thanks for the feedback - great to hear - yes, well spotted new specs means the camera is in focus! really helps.
@@JonGadget really enjoy these little kits. And the larger ones too. I really can’t wait to get an organiser and start putting my own together. Could’ve done with a needle and thread today!
That tic remover! 100% picking one up...sooo many good ideas to think through. The pouch I would use is the Niteize waterproof wallet pouch.
Hi Dom, yes I was very happy with that - going in other packs too! Good shout with the Niteize pouch - I have a bigger version but I think they do a smaller one too.
I love my Z-packs Dyneema pouches.
@@JonGadget I'm obsessed with kits but never show them because I'm not fully happy with them...I could do this type of vid though where I show updates
very well produced video and as someone who now needs glasses for reading very usfull on the emergency glasses . thank you 10/10
Very good. very good. I was impressed with the compactness of things and especially with the rubber. Taciano, Jaboatão, Pernambuco, Brazil.
I get so excited when I see you post a video! After watching your video on the rovyvon aurora flashlight, I purchased it a month ago & it is AMAZING!!! I take it everywhere I go & keep it on my bedside table at night. My dad wants one now lol. Thanks for all your hard work. Loved the pen feature on that Swiss btw - maybe I’ll get me one of those, too.
Jon's recommendations are always top notch. If you think you might need something, pick whatever Jon is using!
Thanks for the great comments - really appreciated!
Thanks as always Eyal 😊
Hey Jon, love the videos! After watching the previous iteration of this micro EDC pouch, I was inspired to create my own. Two changes that I made: first, I used a Leatherman TSA compliant multi tool (the Style PS) so that I could have the pouch with me at all times, and second, I used an original Travelcard portable charger. USB-A input, Lightning output, and a form factor tinier than anything else. It has been a life saver dozens of times. They’ve just released a Travelcard Plus, with pass through charging and a larger capacity. Check it out!
I have been using the TravelCard+
it uses both Lightning and USB-C (and charges via USB-C). The new version is 3000 mAh
The new version is slightly thicker than the original, but it is still smaller than anything else on the market.
Hello from Marseille
Thank you for your videos, very instructive and pleasant to see as to listen to, good timing and very interesting! I continue to follow you with pleasure!
Have a good day
Hey Jon, great kit! Gave me some good ideas.
Have you used Bondic in the past? Its a UV curing welding. Great stuff! Since you already have the A8x in the kit with a UV light, a tube of Bondic could possible have more uses than super glue (and maybe even hot glue).
Building my own version of this kit thanks to all the Black Friday sales.
Managed to get slightly updated versions of the torch and In Charge cable so both are USBC.
Going to replace the SAK with one of the card versions, since I always carry my Hunstsman in my main pockets.
Great little micro kit! Definitely going to pick up some of these items if I can find them in Canada.
Glad it was helpful
Brilliant - thanks a million.
you're welcome
I use those Topo pouches to organize my power cables. They’re great.
Great video. Very innovative. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very nice, well thought out kit
thank you
The Manager is my favorite SAK version.
Scissors, pen, and bottle opener!
Very good kit. The tick removal can be improved by either an aluminium “Tick Key” which eliminates the chance of leaving the head (since it’s not a lever) or by knowing the technique of tick removal without tools. You place a forefinger on the tick with light pressure and make tiny circular movements until it detaches itself in a minute or two. Tweezers risk leaving the head embedded or (if the tick is full) bursting it’s body when it’s still attached.
It's a very overlooked tool. In the Netherlands 1 in 6 or so is infected with lyme. And you have about 14 minutes to remove it. Longer then that and you're at risk.
I always carry them around
gotta give you thanks/evil glare... LOL I love your videos, I've been down a rabbit hole for a couple days now of non stop watching and researching products. LOL Keep up the good work!
Although I do love these EDC uploads I am amazed at the amount of gear people have to take out ‘everyday’. Me, a good mobile phone which can take notes , has a flash light and also Apple Pay, Car keys with a tiny Leatherman multi tool and maybe £20 in cash just in case. Job done 👍
Dont be naive. The phone flashlight will drain your phone battery in 2 hours. you should use a notepad and pen for notes bc notepads dont need batteries to read in daylight and bring an actual flashlight. on low setting an led flashlight may last 10 or more hours. (edited for spelling)
I understand but the phone battery becomes the weak point here
@@JonGadget
Jon, I've been a subscriber for a while .
This thee best micro edc kit video on yt.
Bar none .
Truly innovative.
I'm buying a few of these excellent items and I rarely find any yt video whose contents contain items which can improve my current load out.
Much appreciated mate 😎👍
Fair comments. Using a phone flash light for quite a while will kill the battery, can’t really remember when I really needed a flash light though, the notes app on a iphone I use all day at work along with camera and other apps and lasts all day.
I’m not having a go, I love watching these videos and some of the EDC gear I just wonder why so much gear is needed ‘everyday’ ?
Keep up you great reviews 👍
@@stevenharper6888 I lived in New York City from 2011 to 2015. The city got hit with hurricane Irene in 2011. After that, ordered 6 battery packs for my cellphone. 2012 we got hit with Hurricane sandy. we lost electricity and heat for 2 weeks. we also lost cellphone coverage. cellphones back then had working FM radioes which i used to listen for weather updates. luckily we had natutral gas stove and running water. i had the stove top lit for over a week with just one match. i filled up pots with water and kept them on the stove top for heating, cooking and bathing. the tunnels into the city were flooded, subway system was flooded. gasoline was being rationed and first responders and doctors went to the head of the line; I was close enough to walk to the hospital that i did not bother. i now plan to keep a power bank, a fire source and a flashlight handy at all times.
you dont know how well prepared you are for an emergency until you are in one. young folks take for granted that they will always have access to electricity and wireless access to the internet except when they dont, then what?
This was very useful. Thank you
good to hear
Thanks for the links.
you're welcome
Some really good ideas 👍
I'm glad it was useful
Use the amalgamated tape on the Zipp carbon handlebars of my Trek Domane road bike. So for thousands of miles it's been put to the test and really holds up. Amazing stuff with all kinds of applications.
Your videos are very helpful. It is a tight squeeze in the Topo pouch though I can cram it all in. I think I may often need to empty the bag to find some items. Maxpedition has a two for one special on all pocket organizers. I got the mini for your travel essentials kit and it came with a free micro bag. I am thinking of using the micro for this kit. Yes, it is bigger, but it does layout flat. It will provide for a larger power bank (the hardest thing to fit into Topo. One suggestion that I have in my bag is a micro fiber cloth for cleaning glasses/electronics. They are very small and do a better job than my shirt tail. You're videos are addictive. Well done.
Terrific video! I've already started gathering the various items. ;-) Here in the U.S., a few things are sold out or not in stock, but I'm sure there are good alternatives. By the way, good camera work and audio on your content. I'm not a gadget/EDC expert by any means, but I've directed numerous corporate videos and I currently work in the VO field. Unlike some CZcams folks, your editing is very good, and the audio is also excellent. Wish that more folks followed your example. ;-) All the best from Washington, DC!
Hi Jonathan, After watching this Video I was impressed with the Rovyvon torch and power bank so ordered both from amazon they were not cheap .they both arrived today and I was not disappointed ,the torch is something else . Whilst figuring out how to use the torch I put it on its main high beam and looked at it and then could not read the instructions it is that powerful. I bought a Anker power bank but it has has al of the same Specs as the Juice 1 . I am a Biker so need everything as small and light
weight as possible. Thanks You for Your knowledge. Brooky
Very nice kit.
I always add two feet of gorilla tape wrapped around an expired card. I wrap two rubber bands around that and I have a 2 inch Titanium pry bar threaded thru the rubber bands.
Excellent kit and video
Great feedback - thanks Jeff
Back in 1979.. my dad was a machinist Dad gave me my first victoronox SD keychain knife ..& I've had one on all my keychains ever since ! ..nail file screw driver tip works on flat head screws & Philips head in a pinch .. scissors is the best ..& tweezers great for splinters
Never clicked a video so fast, I always carry the Swiss army compact in one pocket. great content as always Jon 👍
That's great to hear 😀
Just an idea, maY I suggest the addition of a spare house key to the pouch? It could come in handy For example if you do manage to lose your keys, You are not going to be stuck outside in the cold or pouring rain.
I know many people have a secret spot for a spare key at home ex: under the door mat, or a plant pot but this has happened to me before and i can assure you it is not fun haha. 😆
Hi Jon great video as usual. I love this kit format since we can always learn a new tip or two each time regardless of the kit theme. PS: The Leatherman Crunch that appears on your transitions just got back in stock after a year and a lot of rumours of it getting discontinued. It is such a great and unique tool, I bet a review would perform well.
I think that might be the Mr Crunch - only 500 produced!
@@JonGadget Nope, I'm talking about the late 90s locking pliers. They came back to stock a few weeks ago after most content creators saying it was most probably just discontinued!
I just picked up the pouch on Amazon for under $8 dollars. Great video.
Thanks for the suggestions. I also carry a breathing filter for resuscitation with me.
Thanks so much for these videos - took your advice from the last one to get the power bank and love it. Did manage to get a topo pouch on eBay but as you say, a struggle in the UK. One other alternative recently launched is the osprey arcane small pouch for £10 in case that’s helpful to your subscribers.
Thanks for that! Will def check out the Osprey pouch!
We have used acrylic zipped pouches from Aiguille Alpine Equipment they are based in Cumbria and ait's all made in the UK, likewise you might want to look at their Contour bags that are very well made/well priced (£27) and around the same size as the Arcane.
For the battery it may be 3350mAh but one important note. They are not 100% efficient at transfering power (more like 80% often) so you really get about 80% of that total power
it's actually worse than that because the mAh rating is the capacity of the (typically) 3.7V cell inside. The powerbank converts that 3.7V to the 5V output (trading mAh for Volts) so you're at 74% but due to the efficiency of the conversion process you only get 80% of that. So you're actually at around 60% of the 'capacity' of the powerbank.
Note: When the powerbank charges your phone/device you get back from the conversion from 5V down to 3.7V but then you have the efficiency of the conversion, say 80% again, and you still end up around 60% end to end.
Victorinox scissors? YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! Total win of a video. Thanks Jon 👍🏻😂
Thanks DM
Greetings! I am really enjoying your content! Regarding the small case (or pouch), there is a slightly larger case that is produced in enormous quantities. It's a product advertised on the American market: the CLC 6x5 bag. I use them for many applications. They often are sold in a 3 pack with 2 larger zippered bags (for roughly 12 Pounds). The bags come with a plastic clip, which I remove and replace with Paracord loops.
Hey Jon, thank you so mich for your great videos! I skipped my favourite show to watch all of your videos.
As I‘m also tied to my glasses, I‘m missing a cloth to clean those glasses in your kit. Cheers
Wonderful kit - I wear a suit for work & whilst I am away from my desk / office I often need to recharge my phone. I scored a Thick Marker sized power bank as a trade show give away that I use to top up the power in my phone between meetings if I needed to.
Great choice on the Victorinox. I use the Midnight Manager on my key ring. It has the same features as the Manager plus a flashlight. Love it and recommend it to all my friends. ✌️
it's a good one
Awesome kits and explanations... I recently found your channel and loving it but fear it will cost me financially!😆👍💰
Jon! Great work. Some very tight editing in this one too.
Thanks Ben, really kind of you to say. You know what it's like, every video is a learning opportunity. Great to see your channel building nicely.
I have the same micro pouch from Topo. In mine I have a victorinox sportsman, maglite solitaire LED, bic lighter and a fisher bullet pen as the main pieces. I also have bandages, some paracetamol tablets, a small microfiber cloth and a comb. Also a small spring bar tool for my watches. After seeing this I plan on getting some zip ties and that self amalgamating tape aswell! I have a victorinox classic sd on my keys so i have scissors with me aswell. I love the Topo designs pouches
nice one jon, i use the maxpedition micro pocket organizer and i switch it out between my daily bags. always have a classic SD SAK, some rolling papers, a i1r2 eos olight and a few doggy poo bags, lip balm, hair tie, misc. keep on rockin!
some great feedback there - Maxped Mircro is a good alternative albeit a bit bulkier
That little flashlight is so interesting 🤔!
Jon,
Forget the zip tie on the Bic lighter and use a #11 O-Ring instead. You'll thank me later. Lol. The O-Ring slips completely underneath the push button to be completely immobilized. Pulls off easily as well.
Brilliant video 💯👌🏼
Glad you enjoyed it
I love e this flat design.
