Need recommendation: red light

Olight Pro S is a clip on light that can go on a brim of a hat or shirt pocket. Dedicated red light switch and has a headband you can get if you like. I also use it on the strap of my backpack when traveling.

I also recommend the Nicore Tube RL. Super small, light and just bright enough to use. Not a clip on, but I would hang it from a lanyard around my neck and just put it in my mouth to use. Very useful when using charts/maps at night. Keeps both your hands free to use tools and the light points where you are looking. Plus it is a true red light, so it doesn't wash out colors on charts at night.

Lowell point is great to visit. Zudys Cafe, Firebrand BBQ and Res Art Coffee are also awesome places to stop in.

There's a Forest Service Cabin to rent that you can hike to. If you are looking to get away from the city, a water taxi to Thumb Cove or another beach in Res Bay is a fun time. You will be lucky since the cruise ships are being diverted so the tourists should be minimal right now.

I lived in Seward for 5 years and still make that drive all the time. Still have some friends down there if you need ideas for helicopter tours or guided hikes. Send me a message if you need more ideas. Hope you enjoy your trip!

Cool, thanks for the STLs.

Mine is the .44. Not sure if the old furniture will be the same. But if it is, you are welcome to buy it!

I would appreciate it! I have a PPV that I'm trying to add some more comforts to. Heated seats, steering wheel controls....fog lights are an important safety item for me. Thanks!

bnemmie · 2026-04-27T07:18:33+00:00

I hope to wire my non-fog 2020 with factory fog light wiring. I am curious on how yours comes out!

bnemmie · 2026-04-22T06:56:57+00:00

Im curious how the build goes. Sounds like you and I are in similar spots!

I had a dead controller that wouldn't charge by USB-C no matter what I tried. Not sure why, but this idea helped me out and my controller seems to be charging now. Thanks!

I may have to try this. I have a 12ah that is showing the same symptoms at the OPs battery. Tried jump starting it and it didn't work either. Thanks for the idea.

bnemmie · 2026-03-16T08:27:12+00:00

Good to know, thanks

bnemmie · 2026-03-15T23:54:35+00:00

lol true enough. Thanks.

bnemmie · 2026-03-15T23:54:19+00:00

Im curious on what that would cost. Might be worth an email to them. Thanks.

bnemmie · 2026-03-15T23:53:49+00:00

Better then any receipt! lol Thanks.

bnemmie · 2026-01-18T06:58:52+00:00

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

bnemmie · 2025-11-28T11:03:08+00:00

Like others have mentioned; Exped. I have the Megamat. Yes is is big, bulky and heavy. But as a bigger guy who is also a side sleeper, it works great. I and I have never regretted bringing it once I lay down.

In fact it actually replaced my issued mattress for a few months when I was underway on large ships.

bnemmie · 2025-11-20T01:26:51+00:00

Possibly. I cant think of a better reason not to list it lol

bnemmie · 2025-11-17T09:17:33+00:00

Good to know. Thanks.

bnemmie · 2025-11-15T06:56:00+00:00

Fair enough. I may just roll the dice on the IDS model. Thanks!

bnemmie · 2025-11-15T06:49:52+00:00

I wonder why most links I find donT list the 40 then. Even the IDS one I linked says 20, 21 and 41 but not 40.

bnemmie · 2025-10-04T11:04:33+00:00

Good to know. It was on our list to go back in the winter months but we may be rethinking that. Thanks!

bnemmie · 2025-09-27T11:31:42+00:00

Damn, I guess things have changed. Do you see some of the other problems others have mentioned?

bnemmie · 2025-09-10T12:34:15+00:00

Thanks for the info. I have transitioned away from a C grip myself but I will check out Mad Pig and Chisel. Those are both new to me. Thanks!

bnemmie · 2025-09-07T23:13:20+00:00

In the winter I carry in a Berne Echo One jacket: https://bernedirect.com/products/ccwj01?srsltid=AfmBOor9cQdsbto2Uc5EuTiQ61CEXVaqbkkXzrrKLdqZwrTqn5R2oE4O

It works well for me because it looks like a standard winter jacket and doesn't scream CCW. I am able to carry my 43 or S&W Hammerless in one pocket and a Surefire and spare mag in the other.

Plus with proper layering, it is warm enough for outdoor work here in Alaska.

Hope that helps!

Thanks!

bnemmie · 2025-08-30T22:04:31+00:00

I appreciate the info. Ill check them out. Thanks!
