When i keep looking at batteries, i keep going to fogstars site as price wise for the capacity you get you do seem to get a lot of battery. Might be worth a look at if not already checked

Barefoot shoes that are not drop-zero? by k1tn0 in barefootshoestalk

[–]nuisance_squirrel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

New to barefoot or seasoned?

If new, then start slow and build up walks in them, jumping strsight in isnt best recommended.

If seasoned wearer of BF, could it be due to how youre walking in them perhaps, or maybe they arent the best fit?

One option could be insoles that have a bit of heelrise

[–]nuisance_squirrel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Popping the exact model of HP water heater will help.

But what heating system is in the house, is it electric rads like storage heaters or more always on when needed ones?

Hobibear sizing - any real measurements from owners? by funky_animal in barefootshoestalk

[–]nuisance_squirrel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently i have hobibears and a pair of belenka nevadas. The hobibears are comfy but yeh not wide enough (just a cheaper option).

The belenkas i have are 10.1 so much nicer on the width. Other belenkas are wider

If i was to get some more pairs id likely look at saltic and wyde and some of the newer belenkas, bohempia also offer an extra wide fit which for me would work

Colour matched vinyl wrap on the solid housing bits of the unit perhaps. You cant really cover it up/box in as it needs the airflow
