    I work with a K9 search and rescue team now and then. The team is very good at going deep into the woods looking for missing and/or dead people on scent trails that are sometimes over 24h old.

    One of the ladies used a black tactical rig full of pouches. But instead of gun stuff it held gps devices, radios, dog treats, toys, water, collapsible bowls and a dozen other things for her and her dog.

    So we geeked out for like five minutes over how useful it was. It’s a Condor Ronin Rig if anyone is curious


  • Nothing comprehensive but the weapon holster company Trex Arms has a video review of the Einscan-SP that is like 5 years old.

    Now I get that’s not super helpful but the interesting part is that they scanned a ton of handguns with combinations of optics, lights etc to make their holsters. They found out how tedious of a process it was so they made the files open source. So you can see the quality you’ll expect when you compare spec sheets to other stuff

    So the solar panel I have doens’t have an on board battery, just straight to usb. It makes it lighter and less bulky so I don’t mind.

    I personally think most phones would be okay but I’ve read in a few places that some devices don’t play nice with the variations in electricity from the solar panel.

    So the battery brick is the middleman.
