also just buy the cheap steelcase clones you can find at office stores, its not like they're all plastic in the end anyway

2018-05-18 05:58:00 UTC  

I don't follow phones, does the current meme phone compare well to an HTC 10, and can I get vanilla Android and updates on it?

2018-05-18 05:58:17 UTC  

which meme phone?

2018-05-18 05:58:47 UTC  

not really

2018-05-18 05:58:48 UTC  

Whatever the big popular ones are. I'm just thinking about upgrading vs battery replacement.

2018-05-18 05:59:04 UTC  

They're all pretty much the same

2018-05-18 05:59:11 UTC  

Just with super AMOLED displays now

2018-05-18 05:59:29 UTC  

maybe try replacing the battery <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

2018-05-18 05:59:41 UTC  

free death with every phone disassembly

2018-05-18 05:59:47 UTC  

modern chink phones are getting very good

2018-05-18 05:59:54 UTC  

the only thing they're bad at is the camera

2018-05-18 06:01:45 UTC  

Damn, that's a deal breaker

2018-05-18 06:02:15 UTC  

Eh, I'll see if there's a flagship that isn't shit, or I'll replace battery and wait for a good one.

2018-05-18 06:02:44 UTC  

Thanks for the info

2018-05-18 06:20:09 UTC  

Ah, hm. I ordered some 200gms paper to see if that was better or worse than the normal ~120gms I use.

2018-05-18 06:20:27 UTC  

It's... thick af.

2018-05-18 06:22:27 UTC  

@timsandtoms do you have a convoy s2?

2018-05-18 06:26:00 UTC  

I see it advertised as a bike light so maybe I should grab one for my bike and keep A6 for edc instead

2018-05-18 06:36:26 UTC  

Anything can be a bike light though.

2018-05-18 06:36:29 UTC  

All you need is a mount for it.

2018-05-18 06:36:39 UTC  

Hell, you can get a fucking lantern and use that.

2018-05-18 06:50:15 UTC  

Get a MF04 or GT, great bike lights, amirite

2018-05-18 06:50:47 UTC  

I have an S2+, and I love the body, but I can't speak to its performance. Mine is UV.

2018-05-18 06:51:41 UTC  

They get a lot of love though. See if you can find the range(throw) for them and the A6.

2018-05-18 06:52:37 UTC  

@timsandtoms best budget edc flashlight in your opinion?

2018-05-18 06:52:46 UTC  

S2+

2018-05-18 06:53:19 UTC  

But I don't own any that would count as budget.

2018-05-18 06:53:47 UTC  

So, not speaking from experience, I just like the S2+ and it's real reasonable.

2018-05-18 06:54:09 UTC  

OH! BLF 348. That's another good one, budget for the performance you get.

2018-05-18 06:54:54 UTC  

My EDC rotation is Emisar D4Ti, Acebeam UC15, and Olight S Mini Ti

2018-05-18 06:56:26 UTC  

I want to get a Lumintop Tool at some point, probably the Massdrop titanium one, but more just because I think it's pretty. They get a lot of love, but there are better performing lights I think.

2018-05-18 06:59:17 UTC  

There are a ton of solid options if you just want 130 lumens from 1xAAA.

2018-05-18 06:59:56 UTC  

Really depends on what you're willing to spend, what extra stuff you're willing to put up with, and how small you want it.

2018-05-18 07:02:39 UTC  

@Millwood i have a convoy s2 plus that i broke before bike season :)

2018-05-18 07:02:53 UTC  

Get tir lenses from leddna

2018-05-18 07:03:24 UTC  

Get it with 6 x 7135

2018-05-18 07:04:19 UTC  

@Julian this is best budget edc :)

2018-05-18 07:05:14 UTC  

Well I already have a nitecore tube

2018-05-18 07:06:33 UTC  

If you have a solid one, depends on budget and goals

2018-05-18 07:07:57 UTC  

Is there something specific you want a new one to do differently, and how much would you spend? Do you already have Eneloops, 10440s, 10180s, 14500s, 16340s, 18350s, or 18650s? How big is too big for an EDC?
