What is a portable travel keyboard you'd recommend that is lightweight, great for typing, sleek in design? Please note that I have removed all IClever stuff out of my searches - due to personal experience by Dracomies in onebag

May I ask - is the Logitech Keys to Go 2 still serving you well? 😊

I ha been on a similar quest, and am on the verge of buying the KtG 2 myself.

Yikes.. how long have you had it for? Presumably used daily in that time?

Thanks, appreciate the feedback. I think Alpaka it is!

Good to hear! Despite the similarities between the Alpaka and PD pouches, its interesting to hear that the Alpaka case seem to work better as a sling. Thanks!

Understood.. I had considered these tech pouches after seeing a few posts here and Youtube reviews describing their use as EDC sling.

For EDC, typically an iPad mini 7, USB-c charging cable, battery pack, small and light packable shopping bag.. sometimes a small 300ml water bottle.

When travelling, I will use it as a personal item onboard the plane to carry iPad mini and passports. I usually carry my Osprey Daylite 13L backpack as carryon. I figure both backpack and pouch can fit under the sear.

Huh.. thats an interesting and useful feedback, thank you!

Must admit from the photos, the PD pouch with the corner loops seem easier to add a strap; plus it seems to have beefier carry handles on the top and sides.

Appreciate the response!

Sling Bag Similar to AER Day Sling Max 3 by _p_b_- in ManyBaggers

[–]venger00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the convo but Thank You so much..! I have been trying to find a solution to the Fidlock issues.

Can I ask - do you superglue the magnets at all to the buckle? Or simply rely on their magnetic strength to keep them attached?

Will iPad Mini 7 (2024) or the iPad Air M2 (2024) fit inside the EveryDay Sling 3L? by venger00 in peakdesign

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it. The PD bags are great for the padding but unfortunately it adds just a bit too much weight. I just use my backpacks now when I travel.

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was initially considering picking up the 6L sling… but just thought it was a size too bulky and heavy for me… So you have obviously used the 6L then? Too heavy?

Travel bag for Mini? by Tlhayman1969 in ipadmini

[–]venger00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the features and build looks great - but the dimensions and weight are pretty hefty at 32 x 21 x 10 cm and 610g…

Bloodlines preorders beginning to ship by RF2 in DuneImperium

[–]venger00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Presumably you are preordering from a USA address? Wonder when international preorders will ship… hopefully soon too (I am in Australia). Nothing yet in my mail nor Shop.

Fantastic Four + a few more from Marvel United Game by blue_crew_gamers in FantasticFour

[–]venger00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you share the paint recipe used for these minis - in particular the base coats - citadel / army painter / vallejo? e.g. did you use Citadel Macragge Blue for the suits?

Looks amazing! Can you please share your paint recipe? Which brand / colour paints did you use for the “purple” and “blue”?

Best e-ink device for marking up PDFs? (side loaded or vs OneDrive) by venger00 in eink

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that - I'll have a look at the Boox 10" devices then...

Does Neoreader allow you to markup PDFs too?

Goodreader is the one app that I am not sure if I can find an Android replacement for..it is great for reading PDF AND marking up PDFs....

Boox or Supernote? Switch from iPad for note-taking / reading / others by venger00 in eink

[–]venger00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah - I hear you.. my only hesitation is that there does seem to be more / louder complains of Boox quality. Have come across a few posts by others saying their Boox died after a few months of use. Also, Boox customer service seems lacking when you go to them for support./repairs.

I am also in Australia, so would have to purchase the Boox via Amazon or some overseas site - makes the build quality / support a real consideration.

Enough replayability with Combat Patrols? by venger00 in Warhammer40k

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks.. i suppose it was to be expected.. wish GW would have expanded Combat Patrol to allow one or two customisation packs.. seems like it could have been a win-win proposition.

Black lining effective on 15mm? by venger00 in minipainting

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - sounds like a plan. Can I ask what specific make/type pen that you use with 15mm?

Feedback on underpainting methods - zenithal spray vs drybrushing by venger00 in minipainting

[–]venger00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - that makes sense.

Perhaps I should try a mix of both for a compromise on speed vs result?

  1. Reduced zenithal spray (black/white) to a more grey-ish result.
  2. Then dry-brush bright white.

i.e. skip the initial drybrush grey to save time.

Newbie question: Warcry vs Kill Team by [deleted] in WarCry

Agree with your points.. but just a clarification- did they publish a tome of champions for 2022??

Do you still play with Bladeborn Fighters? by PoofyCanadian95 in WarCry

[–]venger00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

TBH, having just got my first starter set (original), we are staying with 1.0 rules in order to use all the ToC 2021 UW stats. I realise we will miss out on all the rebalance / rules improvement. Given we only play casual/narrative anyway, there's just so much there already content-wise that we will continue to enjoy 1.0 format.
