Hello, Techventurers and Everyday Carry enthusiasts!
Okay, that was a bit corny…
Welcome to Tech Kit – an EDC community for tech gear.
Our goal here is to share ideas, suggestions, reviews, photos and appreciation for the gadgets and gear that help us navigate our daily lives – whether you’re a seasoned tech junkie or new to the world of ‘EDC’.
EDC, or ‘everyday carry’, is often viewed through the lens of an outdoors or survivalist experience, focusing on pocket knives, compact multitools, tiny but powerful torches (tech!), first-aid packs, and so on.
To be clear: that’s all great, and it’s welcome here. Show us your knives, tools, and all the rest.
But, of course, this community has tech in the name.
That means our main focus is on the sort of pocketable and baggable tech that help you get through a regular day – the tech kit that saves the day.
The simplest examples of EDC tech vary from obvious things like your phone and smartwatch, to a power bank and a laptop or tablet, charging cables, card readers, earbuds or headphones, gaming systems, and so on.
Of course, it can get a lot more complex for many people, adding things like cleverly compact multi-format USB keyrings, tech-enhanced wallets, a compact camera or photo-improving phone accessories, etc.
If you can carry it and it’s tech, we want to talk about it!
Here’s a quick overview of what we’ll aim for in c/techkit.
Post Photos and details: Got a new piece of tech that’s revolutionizing your day-to-day life? Snap a picture and share it with us. We love seeing what others carry and finding inspiration for our own collections.
Ask Questions: Not sure if that new pocket projector is worth the investment? Need help choosing a power bank? Feel free to ask your questions. We’re all here to help each other.
Share Information & experience, reviews: Come across an interesting article or video about EDC tech? Got thoughts and first-hand experience to share? This is the place! We’re all here to learn and stay on top of the latest advancements.
Participate in Discussions: We’re keen to run weekly themed discussions where we dive into specific areas of EDC tech. These might range from “The Best Portable Gaming Devices of 2023” to “Survival Tech: What You Need In Your EDC Kit”, and so on.
Lastly, a reminder to please keep everything civil and respectful.
We all have different needs and preferences when it comes to our tech, and that diversity is what makes this community special. Check out the sidebar for rules and guidelines.
Cheers!
