EDC (Easy Dad Carry) Backup Pouch
For the last month I switched from my full EDC sling bag to this little back up pouch. These seem to be more and more popular, and I can see why! While it doesn't afford all the same amenities of a full bag, when you start slimming down you also start realizing the value of what you carry and why you carry it.
Skip to 9:40 for an easy way to store small/slim line and cordage!
In the end, I don't think this will be my new "Always Carry" simply because I like to have a few more supplies with me given my preferences, but I 100% feel like this is a good grab and go back up.
Again, sorry about the cough! I swear I'm not always sick.
Like subscribe, share, and most importantly- COMMENT! I love talking to folks in the EDC community! Tell what you think, what sucks, what you like, whatever you have.
Thanks!

Great kit. Really awesome suggestions throughout and inexpensive. I really liked the flashlight, and LOVE the Kershaw Cinder. I bought one and thought it was a cute package opener, but I added a snake knot lanyard to it and can get a full 4 finder grip. It sits next to my keys on my way out the door and I grab it all the time.
Maybe slide a spare AAA battery into that front slot.

I usually carry spares in my other kits, but this guy I'm trying to keep slim. If I loose some weight in it, I might consider it though. I'll have to do a runtime test and see what kind of life I get out of it then decide. This isn't a SHTF or anything, so I'm not generally too worried about not having a back up or my main go bag or sling bag near me.

I've seen that! I was thinking of picking one up for my sling bag actually. Seems pretty rad.
I’d caution against keeping the battery backwards unless you know the flashlight has reverse polarity protection.

I never use bread ties, I use the ones that come in kids toys and those blister packs! They hold up better, and can be reused, though they could take up a little more room. The bread ones would be great for disposable things.

Instead of rubber bands use hair ties they work better and last longer than rubber bands.

If you wear glasses you can use tape or an elastic hair tie to attach your light to one of the bows of the glasses for a hands free light (in case you don't have a ball cap).

Thank you for this video. I like your ideas for the pouch and I prefer this to small tins. I may have more than one pouch. Don't know what that will look like, but it's much easier for me to pocket a pouch. The medicine bags you refer to here.... are these small zip lock bags that can be found at craft stores, or something else?

The bags came from Walmart, bur I bet you could find them at a craft store. Small medicine baggies, bead baggies, or even small sample baggies would probably all find something for you.

I have an idea about you wanting to keep your video shorter. In the beginning you talked extensively about the Carabiner that you added. While I was watching this I was wondering why you weren't talking about the product that you were reviewing you were only talking about what you did. Maybe you can make a separate video on your carabino and Beaner and nobody will watch it

Wasn't really a product review as much as a "here's the useful things in and on my own pouch loadout." These small carabiners aren't something I see on a lot of EDC, even though it's pretty cool for its size. There's a lot of cool ones out there though!
