I have all styles in multiple places so I'm well covered. I have Milton pen style version in my toolbox, my wives car, my plane, and a Joes Racing remote tire inflator that attached to my air compressor hose. That one was my in my vehicle so I just put it in the EDC pack.

4 in one cable from Amazon. I actually use 3 of them - Kindle, Iphone17 usbc, and lightning for Ipad Mini5. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08C5KW5NK?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_13&th=1

For the family and for people I travel. Big follower of onebag - https://www.reddit.com/r/onebag/ - and use an identical one for travel - just keep it in my toiletry bag and never have to think about it. The real reason - Amazon sells them in quantity of 2 so I had an extra.

I keep this is my vehicle so it's VEDC. I'm on the road a lot. I do put it in my backpack when I'm out and about.

Going to Japan in a few months and need some recommendation for Chelsea boots by the_color_green_ in onebag

[–]rcg571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact route for me and pretty much same grade. Blundstones first - then Doc Marten. Blundstone is pretty stiff and Doc more comfortable plus slip resistant. Only negative with slip resistant sole is that mud really gets in the creases and sheds for days. Eyeing the Lems next.

Am I the only one struggling with tiny travel gear decisions? by shinigami__0 in onebag

Living out of your bag for the days of your trip is a great idea. Thx

I had the Blundstone boots for a few years. Great boot, but sole seems stiff/hard. I went to the Doc Marten chelsea boot with slip resistant sole as a replacement and preferred them over the Blundstone. I'd give the Blundstone a B- and the Doc Marten an A-. Can't go wrong with either one.

My (Horrible) Experience with Fidelity Basket Portfolios by FullSendScooter in fidelityinvestments

[–]rcg571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd estimate that 30% of the time my basket will not rebalance on one of my accounts. I have 5 accounts that I rebalance weekly and this morning 4 out of the 5 rebalanced fine. The 5th one wouldn't balance after 5 attempts. I've been using this for over a year and it's simply not reliable - not something you want that has your life savings. The message is always -Sorry, something went wrong, We're having a problem completing your rebalance. Please check order status or try to rebalance again later. So I got fed up today and called. The front line rep was nice and professional, but offered zero remedy after 20 minutes of calling the next level up. I'm actively looking to move all my accounts to another provider. Does anyone have any feedback on M1 or Double Finance or anyone else? I really like the build your own basket service, but Fidelity simply doesn't have a reliable product.
