Title: Carabineer locator [badge request]
Post by: comis on July 30, 2019, 09:01:12 AM: Hi, all.

Just like to share with you what I usually use for locating a bag in pitch black, a simple carabineer combined with a AAA powered Glo-toob.

This particular one is attached on my camera bag, and it's extremely useful to remind oncoming traffic or locating the bag, whenever I'm doing a sunrise/night photography.

Does anyone have a similar setup or use? :D :pok:

I was at Race track in Death Valley for night photography few years ago, and this carabiner light was what guided me and my friends back to our cars less than 1km away. No flashlight is strong enough to identify a car in pitch black that far away, even though we had GPS coordinates and compass, still that tiny visual light was very reassuring.

Now the sucky part, downtime and waiting for this thing to get here!!
