New Every Day Carry Light - Biolite Powerlite Mini


EDC BioLite PowerLight Mini Review by mikemuonline

I love this light. It serves me well when I’m home, and when I travel about outside on the go whether it’s on my bike, eBike, my Momus electric scooter, or just out for a jog in the evening.

I don’t live in a nice home with modern skylights, giant windows, and nicely lit hallways during most of the day. I don’t like wasting electricity, and try to keep a low energy and carbon waste profile whenever possible. This light helps me see things around the house, in storage, in the garage, and when I’m searching through my camera bags for stuff.  It’s better than a flashlight in that it superslim, and provides a nice diffuse light that I simply clip on my shirt - no dorky headlamp required.

When I leave the house, it also travels with me in an everyday carry bag because it serves a dual purpose as a USB backup battery just in case (1350 maH).  Once it hits early evening, I use it light a flash light, headlamp, or tail-lamp for my bike, etc.

Costs about $50 with tax.

Who We Are (film): Modern Hunters

Who We Are from Sicmanta on Vimeo.

Amazing short film.  "Don't confuse me with being anything else other than proud. Proud to be a hunter. It's time we stop apologizing for how we get our protein. This is who we are. Unless you’re a small time rancher, small time farmer, a hunter or fishermen... you really have no idea where your food comes from. Most people don’t even think about it. Well, we think about it. ” - Donnie Vincent.
