My name is Jonathan, I have a passion for all things gadget, travel and EDC (Everyday Carry), which has filled both my personal and work life for many years.
This includes sourcing, reviewing and product development and the creation of two UK national retail chains. Find out more here: • About Jon Gadget - Who...

Product Sourcing:
When it comes to sourcing a product for review, I will usually either purchase and item personally or reach out to a supplier requesting a sample for review. Many suppliers are supportive if they are confident in their product, appreciating the value of greater exposure.
I am sometimes sent a product by a supplier which I may include if the product fits planned content and I believe will be of interest to you, my audience. The product needs to be worthy of a review and I always make it clear to the supplier that they cannot influence or be involved in the content in any way. It is not in my interest to review inferior or poor quality products and therefore as you might expect many product offers are politely declined.
Any sponsored videos (paid for reviews) are clearly stated as such so there can be no misunderstanding.
Sometimes a supplier will provide a link to the product or the supplier which I am happy to include in the description. Sometimes I will be provided with an affiliate link so I can earn a commission on sales and this helps to support channel costs but never at the expense of an honest review. There is no cost to you and in some cases discounts can be obtained via the link or via an included code.
If a product I have reviewed is available from Amazon I will often include an Amazon link in the description. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. If you purchase a product or service with the links that I provide I may receive a small commission. There is no additional charge to you.
Replying to Comments:
I really appreciate the feedback in the comments - I find it a source of knowledge and inspiration - so thank you to all of you who take the time to contribute. This is not just for me as the creator, it is a valuable source of information for all readers of the comments. I have recently found that if I continue to respond to all the comments as the number of videos builds, it takes significant time away from being able to produce new content which would be very counter productive! So my aim is to read everything I can and reply when I can, after each video goes live for the first few hours at least, and beyond that when possible. I'll see how that works out 😊
Please consider subscribing and being notified to keep up to date with new video releases.
Thank you for supporting the channel.

Jon. Where have you been hiding the campervan! Would love to see a video on the setup. I’m sure it’s full of thoughtful touches for solving day to day needs. Video on that please!!
Thanks for the feedback - not sure if it what the audience wants to see but if there is enough interest I will happily put a vid together 👍
@@JonGadget 👋🏼 I’d be interested too! 😎
@@JonGadget Please do!
Absolutely!
@@JonGadgetI'd also be interested about the camper van. The place where it's parked is also gorgeous! Is that the Cotswolds? In any case, the area is beautiful.
I purchased a rovyvon because of you. Many thanks, awesome flashlight.
Great to hear!
So did I! I love it, my previous was 300 lumens (tiny olight), this new one is 650 lumens AND has other functions as well!
As always great info and presentation. Enjoy your take and precise reviews of EDC gear. Happy 2024 to you!
🥰So pretty look, tomtoc makes a great surprise with the Voyage series. OK, I'll take the Voyage-T50 backpack🎒 for daily use and believe it will excel at the job!😆
Great list!
Very interested in the TomToc backpack 🎒 Will look into it!
Happy New Year!
Great products and overview as always.
I have been meaning to try Tomtoc and will start with one of their slings.
All the best, looking forward to you next video!
Carl in the United States
Congratulations on the tomtoc sponsor, still love my tomtoc sling after regular use for the past two years.
Great to hear! Yes, thank you, we always want sponsors to be relevant to the channel 👍
Agree,their laptop sleeve with the corner protections is quite nice
I have to confirm I am a tight (careful) Yorkshire man and don’t part with my money easily. Upto now, I’ve only bought the Crazy Horse origami wallet and love it. It’s full to capacity but works well.
These are very cool! Thank you! 👍🏼
Glad you like them!
I'm broke, can you do another budget video please, that's
Great video 👍
Coming soon!
Ooh another great haul! 😁
Great selection. What makes the Tomtoc range a great choice is that they seem to have nailed the balance between Quality and Price. You don't want to have paid so much for some kit that you're terrified to use it in case it gets scuffed!
The bag looks fantastic, will define checking one out
Always spot on....thx Gadget!
you're welcome 👍
Love love love your channel and the review. The Tom toc sleeve is now available in a 13 inch as well which is what I got for my iPad 13 m4.
Great video, really interesting gadgets, and you look cool in the new hat!
Thank you 🤗
Excellent video as always but where can I get that gold tin foil that was modelled by Jamie so well? 😂
I think that was from the car breakdown video - well worth watching, I bought virtually everything Jon recommended including the bag!
One thing to mention for people who need DC barrel jack outputs is the PD spec allows for cables (that exist) which will negotiate specific voltages. The catch is you need a separate cable for each discrete voltage unlike something like the charge2 where you can select the required voltage from a menu.
Hi Jon, nice to see you back for another years worth of gadgets. Any chance you could do a review of card trackers / tags especially Android compatible ones. Thanks Karl.
Thanks for the suggestion - I will put it on the list 👍
@@JonGadget FYI, Keysmart now has a rechargeable card wallet tracker as well
I'm glad to see wallet reviews that aren't just ridge style. I need to carry a number of paper cards, receipts, cash, etc. In addition to credit cards. I'll look into the Allet wallets. They look similar to the BigSkinny wallet i currently use. I like that BigSkinny wallets are really thin but have a large capacity and can be good for front pocket carry as well.
Those power banks look like they could send you through time itself, or something Tom Cruze has to defuse.
Hi Jon excellent content. Where do you get the Allett wallet in the UK? Will it hold UK sized bank notes?
Hi Jon, great video as always! Just to make your viewers aware I ordered two Seinxon cards after watching your video a month ago, and two empty boxes arrived in the post today 😢
Thank you
I'll take second place! Silver!
Great start to the year Jon. I’m a big fan of your channel and love the whole EDC thing 😊
I appreciate that! thank you 🙏
Good info
Kangol drip! You’re in good company with Date Mike and Samuel L Jackson.
Legends - but they can wear them backwards and I can't get away with that!
@@JonGadgetthere’s always next video 😂
big tomtoc fan, have a few of their items. Water/drinks bottle spaces missing from them, would like to see them roll the items down the range - the backpack is far too big for what I need - carry the corssbody/sling and there's loops but nothing to keep the items secure(on the outside )
hopefully they'll be reading the comments!
Another Jon video that I couldn't get to the end without spending at least $100 USD.
😬 sorry!
The Tomtoc gear are really good. Shame there’s not a hidden AirTag space in the laptop sleeve and backpack.
Wow nice camper van review please 🤓
Tactile Turn made it to the UK! Go Texan Machinists!
Remember that the capacity loss due to heat dispersion is usually 30-33 percent for most powerbanks.
So keep that in mind when accounting for charging capacity.
Looks like there's a new version of the Seinxon tracker that can be charged wirelessly!? Going to try that one out.
Yes, just saw that a couple of days ago - great idea
Nice gear Jon. I know you have a HUGE following worldwide but I’d like to see more products available from UK companies.
It's a limited market for home built gear but I'm as keen as you are. Good the get the feedback 👍
Hmmm... That power bank would trigger all sorts of questions with airport security and I'm guessing is a good way to go to a secondary questioning...
Capacity is marked on it and under limit - but agree it looks like something from a Mission Impossible movie that you would want to steer clear of!
nothing for me this time, but that is not the point of this comment.
Thank you for showing all the "bits and bobs" (?) and stuff, it is much apprechiated. Intersting products and the presentation makes watching your videos time well spent :)
You’re simply the very best in the EDC game. Though we have somewhat different needs in kits, I generally always find something I want from your presentations.
Happiest of New Years to you Jon! May 2024 bring us all peace and usefulness! 🌿
I’ve only got to the tactile ones and I can already feel a big proverbial hole burning 😅
🤣
Hi, i just bought the ranger 55 wood and if you hit the plates with your nails it sounds like the classic red plastic ones, i wonder if its real wood??
II wonder if Tomtoc will offer a belt-strap for the Voyage T29 pouch to make it into a sling bag, but then Tomtoc already has sling bags available just a thought.
Worth considering🤔
the Shargeek looks like something you would get detained at the airport for having. lol
What do you mean some usb c devices can still only be charged via usb a? That's not true
Oh well, TomToc upped their game, maybe, but also the prices. From a company making great quality and affordable slings and other bags, even other kinds of backpacks, they now charge £159 for a 20L backpack? I'd loved to see more internal colours apart from that boring blue-ish (OK, a bit brighter in the white version), I dunno. I'm a bag freak and have more than I'll ever need, but that new pouch is left in the dust by any Alpaka, Bellroy or PGY tech tech puches bags... and with very comparable price. I do understand sponsorships and you won't criticize the milkin' cow, but we can 🙂 Cheers!
Rolling square have just started to mention a new version of their air card with user replaceable batteries
Yes, spotted that, will review asap 👍
KeySmart SmartCard, wireless charging, just got mine. Supposed to last 6 months on a single charge…
Please make a video on the camper van
Didn't you have a suggestion on an 'anti-microbial' beanie in a *recent* video? One that was made of that fancy no BO shirts and stuff.
Merino yes, but as mentioned, too warm for indoor use.
Yeah! thats the word I couldn't remember.
As a fellow baldy I was looking for a hat that i can wear without having it start to smell like, well sweat.
Do you recall which video it was in so I can click the affiliate link?@@JonGadget
Every time I mention the company, my post disappear... soo I don't know how I can forward you to them. John check out their find-my card. It's wirelessly charged, thinnest in the world and the battery suppose to last for about year. You know the company already from their pocket clips (that's how I learned about them as well - from you, John). Try to google the term key. And than add a word smart.
I'm also a member of the sexiest bald men's club. Thanks for the Kangol hat info!!!
good option 👍
You look better without the cap
Wow Too much, Pricey! Gear
Yes, it was a bit pricey, next week will be the opposite!
TSA: Is that a pipe bomb?
Me: umm, it’s a TSA approved battery bank.
TSA: Clear the area, come with me sir.
FFS... £190 for a backpack??!?!?!
I got something similar but way cheaper from decathlon and their build quality is pretty good.
Time for a budget video.
It's a new price point for tomtoc - but not expensive compared to other main makes - tomtoc do a great budget option travel backpack for around half the price which is worth checking out
$100 for an ink pen lol.
Edc is ridiculously expensive sometimes, but if you spend a lot on an actual quality backpack you will never want to go back. No idea if the Backpack shown here is actually good, but a premium backpack is actually worth it, so much more comfortable, it holds up to years upon years of abuse. I recently bought some terrible Jordan backpack for like 60 euros and with my daily use it caved in after a few months, was not comfortable with heavy loads. I now went back to expensive with the tt modular daypack xl and those were the worst 60 bucks I ever spent.
Looks like an IED😂
…as imagined by Hollywood :)
HUSH! I made a similar comment and almost missed my flight due to humorless airport personnel. 😂
@@Erin-Thor having had numerous issues at airports with some of my more, er, ‘’technical” gear I can certainly imagine airport security showing interest in this…
@@bob_the_bomb4508- They have no sense of humor at all! LOL!
@@Erin-Thorit’s called taking your safety seriously. All comments get treated as a threat. Imagine if a real bad person got through after making a stupid comment and the authorities said “ we thought it was a joke”
Planes are still a target so don’t forget it! People work hard to keep you safe when you travel. Respect them.
Not sure why, but my comments just disappears. Wanted to point out another and better find-my card, but my comment just disappear once I reload the page.
Haven’t fingered out how to get your leatherman in that hat yet?
+++++
Too much murdered-out stuff.
Content Provider PSA: Black stuff doesn't present for description purposes worth a d*mn. :-(
EDIT: My last sentence should have read, "Black stuff presents poorly for purposes of description." Sorry for my 'd*mn' overstatement. Momentary hissy fit aside, I still reckon you--as always--one of the EDC giants out there.
Nice gear. But I. Can’t get over. How you speak in. such. Short. Sentences.
It’s like a budget Ross Kemp tribute act. I don’t know if it’s because your reading a script or something. But it’s extremely off putting once you notice. Try to inject some natural cadence and tone. I’m sure you don’t speak like this in realm life!
Totally disagree, I've watched all Jon's videos and as a fellow Englishman haven't noticed anything strange about Jon's style. Carry on being yourself Jon!
Non sense stuffs!
Just consumerism.
I'm sorry to stand out from the crowd of opinion Jon, but I can't help thinking your excellent videos are becoming more and more about product sponsoring. I find that when a product has been given or lent for the review of a UA-camr, the words have less meaning to me. I mean, give me a £150 notebook portfolio and I'll say good stuff about it. But ask me to buy it and I would think twice about that amount of money for it. Perhaps it's me that needs to come to terms with where UA-camrs are getting support from. It's a shame because I do generally love your style and USP.
why do you speak in a very jarring manner.
word. word. word. word.
