Carabineer locator [badge request]
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:

Thank you, folks!

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.

Hey comis, looks like we had the same idea, I just bought one in green never the less, figured might use the lanyard they give and just wear it thrown over the back for when we’re out walking late or just find one of my carabiners and hook it to a belt loop, or if I ever get this trike built hook it to the back of the seat! Now the sucky part, downtime and waiting for this thing to get here!!
