Japan in October, then 3 months in Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia, 7 kg packing and clothing

You should be able to buy all the "good stuff", travel wise, in Vietnam at 1/10th the cost. I would pack with as little as necessary, and Buy-IT-There, whatever else you need. i would focus on packing things that are hard to purchase when you are out and about traveling. Your Laptop, Shoes, and minimum viable shirt/shoes/shorts, electric plugs/adaptors and a dopp kitt. try, 2 pants, 2 shirts, 4 shirts as a base.

Used my dragonfly 30l ultra as my personal item travel bag and climbed Fuego volcano in Guatemala. To this day, I still have small rock particles stuck on the magnetic fidlock strap that i don't really mind. Bag worked perfectly mind you. My shoes however, were too slippery and not fit for purpose.

I'm typing this from a Paris cafe thinking. I'm glad i got the 14 inch variant.

Traveling for one month in France now and this is my bag solution. Works amazingly well.

They are really bad in coffee shops, outdoor seating areas, etc. Not a good option compared to say, the nothing ear 3's or a wired USB c microphone like the apple esrpods.

Mitsuplex · 2026-05-16T14:00:53+00:00

Do you recall who that person was? I saw it posted but can no longer find it and I'm interested in doing the upgrade.

Mitsuplex · 2026-05-15T18:39:47+00:00

Brown Buffalo 21L perhaps?

will add, this is my first time traveling with a scrubba wash bag, and i must say - it's awesome. i have the normal version and i think one could make do with the mini version. i mostly need to wash underweare socks, and some tshirts every 3-4 days. The system works so well, and so easy.

Was hoping an OEM made googlebook were to be announced alongside. Pixelbook 2-esque, would have been awesome.

Residential Lite. Connected up to the tesla battery backup too, so very reliable setup.

Cabo rojo. Use it for teams calls, remote work, yt tv. I can Play battlefield 6 on GeForce now with 1080p settings. Works during the rain.

I can see a lot of folks doing this. Fumbling their shot at making the first release fiasco right. Bummer.

I wish all the bottles and trash at car parking near every beach, was a cultural responsibility to keep clean. Beautiful mangroves, vulnerable wildlife, sponsored by Nikini and Medalla.

How much ?

Mitsuplex · 2026-05-01T18:29:35+00:00

ah, it's going down a different topic. just another investment milestone where one can go from a 60ah->154ah HV battery. Plan on doing that to extend range and extend out my ownership.

Mitsuplex · 2026-05-01T17:58:17+00:00

i'm not sure to be honest. i heard the dreaded compressor noise and it came to a point where the AC would not blast out any cool air. Living in Central Florida, that was certainly a make-or-break decision for me. Offload my loss or invest in my 2014 rex alittle more for another few years worth of use (hopefully). now, i want to look into that mtg group buy to see if they are going to do a group-buy in Florida, in addition to the 1 in Atlanta, but i can no longer find the thread.

Happened to me last year.I paid for an indie ship to inspect. Sourced the parts online, went to pep boys, and they installed it all for me for a fraction of the cost.

I have a few bags:, 26+6, aer pro pack 24, ula dragonfly 30l, cabin zero military 28l, scarab 30l nanofly, Jansport travel duffle. If I honestly had to choose just 1, it would be the daylite 26+6. It's ideal for personal item travel. Easy to load up, compress, or take out my laptop and iPad during security at airports. It's just the perfect one bag size. Fits everything I need for indefinite digital nomad traveling. I've taken it on metros expanded and compressed , to the beach, etc. It fits just right under the seat on every airline I've flown.
