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.  Many suppliers are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.

I am sometimes sent a product by a supplier which I may include if the product fits planned content and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. The product needs to be worthy of a review and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the content in any way. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many product offers are politely declined.

Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding.

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. There is no cost to you and in some cases discounts can be obtained via the link or via an included code.

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.

Replying to 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. This is not just for me as the creator, it is a valuable source of information for all readers of the comments. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes significant 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 for the first few hours at least, and beyond that when possible. I'll see how that works out 😊

Please consider subscribing and being notified to keep up to date with new video releases.

Thank you for supporting the channel.

I just noticed the Lochby design from the thumbnail, one of my favorite companies.

I’ve enjoyed your videos for about a year now, but I’m beginning to have a dilemma, which is that I might want some of the new items, but can’t justify it since the ones I already have are so similar, like the Swiss Army knife. It’s not quite as good in several respects, but I already have it and it is lighter. I have a similar backpack to the one presented, although it’s not quite as good. Wallet, notebooks, etc. I’m very fortunate to have the things I have, and don’t really need more or better ones. It’s the crux of our consumer culture problem. I enjoy learning about new products, and may even desire them, but it’s not necessary to get them, most of the time. I guess I’ll just enjoy your accent and humor.

I have owned and used Lochby products since they were originally named Bond Travel Gear and I am delighted with their product line. Thank you for another great gear haul video👍. I will be closely looking into purchasing the Fendent Anti-theft Backpack...it L 👀ks Great! Kudos from NYC🗽.

You often say you use your small Bic lighter to light stoves, etc.

It can do that. I often end up with the hair scorched off my knuckles.

I found a telescoping straw that collapses down to 8.5 cm. Fully extends to 23 cm. Put a wick dipped in candle wax inside, and you can light any stove without trouble.

Awesome list. I personally love the RE:FORM Card Holder. All I need, nothing that I don't and built extremely well. I've been carrying the wallet daily for about 6 months. It's been tossed in bags and went through some heavy rain with me and still holding up very well. I cannot speak highly enough of the quality and design.

I just got back from Iceland and your recommendations helped out a lot!

[AThirstyPhilosopher]

A lot of thought went into that flashlight/torch! Love the swivel feature.

[stevec-b]

Always a pleasure to watch! That torch is very tempting, I have had a torch obsession since I could switch one on.

[marcclish]

I bought the tool roll a good few years ago when the company was called Bond travel Gear.. still use it and it’s still in mint condition.

[ulyssesmelendres]

Nice job on listing the price for the list. It’s real important to show the prices on your list. Big thumbs up!!

[arobbins]

Good video as usual. None of the gear really caught my eye this time. Probably best for the budget 😂

[resipsaloquitur]

Really good job sir. Great products, and I just love your presentation. Brilliant.

[pascaldelaunay]

Always unusual items which make a great discovery ! Always nice to watch !

[CristiNeagu]

A really nice selection. The Lochby gear was nice, and at a really decent price too.

[sarahb.bartlett]

I always look forward to you posting a new video Mr. Gadget ❤🔦🖋📈🛠🧲🧰⛓❤

[hoot]

Great video. I'd love to see a video focusing on how you might load up the Lochby tool roll for different EDC purposes.

[Gravastarofficial]

So excited to see our power guy Alpha65 in your EDC collection! Thanks Jon!

[kermitthepog]

Hey Jonathan. Thanks for recommending the Nitecore NU25 for a headtorch for camping, it's been just the job. I'm looking to get a cyclist a good head torch as a Christmas present, is there any particular model that would be especially suitable for winter bike rides and commutes through a city in Scotland? Or if you have any other suggestions for a Christmas present for a keen cyclist please lmk! Cheers.

[bikepackinguk]

Ohhhh Amazon UK have 30% voucher off all colours of the Gravastar charger making it less than £40 for the white one

[albarnes]

The Lochby Venture Pouch would make a great puppet!
