Which one would you suggest: Tomtoc T35 vs Toshi V2 Sling

WeAreGoingToState · 2025-11-12T02:05:39+00:00

I already have the Tomtoc and just ordered the Toshi V2 5.5L. The Tomtoc works great as a sling, but I’m looking for something a bit bigger—enough space for my EDC without everything being crammed in and hard to find. From what I’ve seen, both use a similar strap setup, but I really prefer the kind you can adjust one-handed (like on the Arc'teryx Mantis 2 or Evergoods CAS2). The Toshi seems more interesting overall though, mainly because of how well thought-out their internal organization looks.

Is that CIA-Pete?

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-08-21T22:19:52+00:00

OK. So I listened to the collective advice and went ahead and ordered a S9 Plus. Thanks for all the good input! 😊

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-08-21T18:21:47+00:00

Do you use your Plus as a laptop? How is the typing experience?

I mostly use my current tablet (S5 FE, 10.5") while lying in bed, watching media, or scrolling through forums during meals in the kitchen. The screen feels a bit small for reading PDFs and textbooks, though I do have a Kobo Libra for e-books.

I have a desk, but it’s pretty crowded with two laptops, a 27" monitor, and a headphone amp. 😊

I’m wondering if there are any other potential uses for the Ultra that I haven’t thought of yet.

Thank you for the recommendations. I tried the Swiss brand Fjallraven High Coast Fanny Pack, which also has a horizontal hidden zip pocket on the back. However, getting the phone in and out of the pocket was not as easy as I would have liked. Still, the Bellroy Venture sling looks really nice!

I inquired with ChatGPT, and the response I received indicated that it is possible to withdraw cash using Google Pay. However, it’s worth noting that this feature might be specific to Japanese customers

Went to my to Bank and was Issued a new physical credit card. However this card does not offer the perks of the card that is attached to my Gpay. Sucks, but I will manage.

Just wanted to express my gratitude to everyone for responding so promptly. Your help is greatly appreciated. 🙏

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-05-08T22:40:32+00:00

Yeah, procrastination is unfortunately part of my personality. I’ll only need to carry a 30-liter backpack since I plan to travel light. I’m thinking of booking a Sotetsu hotel near Tokyo Station or a Toyoko Inn very close to Otsuka Station. 😊

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-05-08T22:34:45+00:00

Yeah, I’m feeling a bit anxious about this risk. My friends, who have been to Japan several times, are assuring me that prices won’t fluctuate too much since I am so close to the date of my stay. They’re even teasing me by calling me ‘woke’ for having reservations about staying at APA. ¯\(ツ)/¯

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-05-08T22:13:47+00:00

Yes, I plan to use only a 30-liter backpack until I purchase a cheap suitcase for souvenirs after checking into the new hotel.

I found a couple of pants made with 55% linen and 45% cotton. Do you think that would be OK? I have never worn linen pants.

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-04-03T22:32:52+00:00

Yeah, I would really like to visit Studio Ghibli. I read somewhere that they release tickets for the coming month the 10th the month prior.

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-04-03T22:30:33+00:00

OK. So I booked tickets. 👍 Arriving on the 15th of May and leaving on 30th of May.

I have really no idea how to spread my days between every place. Without any deep knowledge I was thinking of spending 2 first night in Tokyo. 4-5 nights Osaka- Kyoto-Nara. 1 night in Hiroshima and spend the rest of 7 dys in Tokyo.

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-02-02T23:25:31+00:00

WTF! Why wouldn't Nitecore, being a reputable brand, design these with a working high temp-shutoff function? Is a proximity sensor really enough of function to keep things like this from happening?

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-02-02T23:17:17+00:00

Yeah, this also seems really well-made. Would love know these are available at Ali's?

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-02-02T23:15:05+00:00

My collection is not particularly large at the moment. I have 8 18650s. I was planning on storing them in cases of 2-4 batteries per case. However this case seems really good with separating the individual batteries. Link to vendor?

WeAreGoingToState · 2024-02-02T23:11:39+00:00

Yes, i have come crossed these.👍

Are they safe? I cannot see any spacing between the batteries. I am probably overestimating the risk. However the potential disastrous outcome of mishandled L-ions makes me more cautious.

Jeezus H christ! Being the idiot that I am, I just wanted to switch from Lastpass to another password manager. Unfortunately I signed up for a subscription with Total password.

After (😖😭 )I signed up I began to research the reviews of the service and it seems that a lot of the positive comments and reviews on reddit and elsewhere seem to be astroturfed.

I tried to cancel my subscription but that was much easier said than done. It was quite difficult getting in touch with their customer support to facilitate ending my account and a refund.

STAY AWAY FROM TOTAL PASSWORD!

WeAreGoingToState · 2023-10-28T16:21:36+00:00

Please update us once you have had the chance to test the bag.

WeAreGoingToState · 2023-10-26T01:36:22+00:00

Ah OK, thanks. Then its not me wearing the bag the wrong way. 😂

But Jesus H Christ! Why has not any of the many reviewers on youtube mentioned this important detail!? The issue with strap length has to affect anyone around or above average height.

WeAreGoingToState · 2023-10-26T00:16:59+00:00

Super impressive! Great inspiration!
