What are some of your favorite product purchases?
A thread to talk about some of the things we've bought and are really happy with. The end. Or the beginning.

This is the bike I got: https://www.marinbikes.com/bikes/2023-presidio-3
Wife has a Marin Gestalt and I have a DS2.

Marin makes a great bike at just about every price point. They do a really nice job shopping their components to get the most out of each frame they make.

Really happy with ours.

Bought a set of 6 metal personalized luggage tags with steel cable attachments.

Thick, sturdy and attaches great.

They are orange and easy to see all my details.

I've got these but only for carry ons as I don't want anyone manhandling my checked bag

Someone asked my wife if she worked for the Chiefs

Those are cool but I had those type of plastic attachments and they dry out and break.

These are what I bought.

Not quite the same thing, but I buy these in bulk and give them to my students once they pass their final open water checkout dive.

My 10 yr old got her junior cert last summer and we went diving the Dominican last month. She got to cruise with a green sea turtle, saw a moray, went lion fish hunting with me (man alive, have we done a NUMBER on those things over the last 10 years. They're actually kinda tough to find these days) and of course the usual reef stuff, rays, crabs, lobsters and a slew of fish.

I gotta get her one of those.

3 in 1 Wireless Charging Station... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYNS7VM3...p_mob_ap_share

I love this charging station. It keeps my nightstand clutter-free and is perfect for travel. No need to carry multiple cords or risk forgetting one and overpaying for a cheap knockoff that barely works or charges slowly.

AWESOME!!!

https://www.amazon.com/Pinstant-Dive...s%2C124&sr=8-4

And if you ever do a night dive on Kline Bonaire, you, like us, can pack three zoo keepers full of lion fish. I take my can light and those 4000 lumens freeze them for others to stick... It's amazing.

Here's another gem you might want to gift her.. The green laser is the right color to use for pointing-out things you want to point out, and SOOOOOO much fun to play with small fish...

And last, for night dives on reefs, a UV light like this is freaking AMAZING for lighting up biologics. A spendy toy for one purpose, but it's AWESOME! And if you're a photo buff, buy an amber filter like this for using with the UV wave length..

Aw damn - I didn't even think to bring my dive light to point stuff out to her.

Good tip - live and learn.

I've never really cared about Apple stuff. Never owned an iPhone, iPad, or Mac (though I did use one for work for a bit). But man, I'm jealous of airtags. Google's version sucks donkey balls in comparison.

Like you I'm an Android user, but it looks like both Apple's air tags and Tile Mate use other phones to help people who aren't within bluetooth range. Worth a try?

From an Google search that AI returned and answer:

Yes, Tile Mates use other Android phones to help find lost items:
Bluetooth signal: The Tile Mate broadcasts a Bluetooth signal that pings devices running the Tile app.
Tile network: The Tile network uses the phone that the Tile pings to get a rough GPS location of the tracker.
Tile app: The Tile app uses your phone's location services to track down the item.
Crowd-finding network: The Tile Mate uses Tile's crowd-finding network to help track down lost items.
Map: If the Tile is out of Bluetooth range, you can see a map showing its last known location.
Ring your phone: You can use the Tile app to make your phone ring, even if it's on silent.
Notify When Found: You can enable the Notify When Found feature to share your contact details with anyone who finds your Tile.
Tile trackers work with Android devices running Android 8.0 or newer. You can download the free Tile app from the Google Play store.

The issue isn't the devices - it's the network. Essentially every iPhone in the world is a "tracker" for airtags while Google 1) is years behind, so their tech isn't as refined and 2) users generally have to opt in to let their Android device be a tracker.

I have a few Tile tags, and if you lose something in a busy place like an airport, you can usually get something to pick it up after a while, but it can take hours. And if it's lost somewhere with less traffic, it might take days.

Contrast that with airtags, which are typically found in minutes as long as it's not somewhere super remote.

Ah, I've never used either, interesting. Apple for the win I suppose...
