Explorer Outfitter @ Publika, Solari Dutamas

Surfing FB, and i'm so happened saw my friend's post his bladder photo at some where, some shop. Later i got to know it's Explorer Outfitter at Publika, Solaris Dutamas.

So, i was nearby yesterday, and i visited Explorer Outfitter, to discover new land, to see whether can discover any nice good value items for my trail running..... 

start with left side... explore row by row... aiyah... everything is mean for hiking... but i no hiking... argh... the more i walk, the more disappointment, dont have anything relates to trail running... 

Then... then... i saw this! headlamps ! Currently few models of headlamps on the shelf display. 

First thing first, check out the price tag before checking out the functionality and features! Wow... 
Wow... it's value for money for the amount of Lumen from the Explorer brand CREE LED headlamp! 
It's simply can match with big branded headlamp. 

Too bad, I'm just got mine from one of the top brand of headlamp recently! 
Slapping myself, why i no discover earlier! 
As i'm got my own headlamp, i no further pursue to see the details of those headlamp, as my headlamp are not comparable to these.  I asked the staff, what's is this "Explorer" brand on this headlamp? I never hear of this brand.... He replied: "Explorer" is in-house self research brand... Generally, these headlamps are good for trail running with amount of lumens offered with the durability of battery power! i can sense it's really good in-house brand which know what's consumer want! 

For those who planning to get new headlamp, it's worth to discover yourself on the headlamps! 

Next: Water Bottle. 
As cyclist, i know this water bottle! Some cyclist are using it! I'm been thinking of getting one, but it's so expensive! 
Now they are selling at RRP RM49.90. But here, at Explorer, they are having promotion, selling around RM30+++ !  
Argh... very tempted to get it at that time... but i keep refuse ! 
Maybe when next time im here again, i will get it before promotion end ! 


Next: Hand Warmers ! 
Er... what is this thing! Really can get warm by shaking? Dont you thinks it's like some kind of magic thing? 
haha.... Guess, people around me hardly / never done any extreme hiking. Thus, never get to know this kind of products! 
Asked the staff on how it's work, and asking with dis-believed attitude, is this really work? After some explanation, okayla, i believe 50% first, have to ask Mr Google second opinion before believe 100%. 
This 1, I'm going to get it to test it out in cool weather trail running! 
Argh.. i wish i know this much much early too! If i know, i can bring some spare for my HK100 ! 
argh... ai... 

Btw... 
The staff told me, currently in store only have 40% of what they have now... meaning new products are adding each days, and there's also trail running related products too! 

Good to know! 
Nothing much discovery other than 3 items above. 
Till next visit discovery.

Magnic Light - Kickstarter

Another kickstarter project on cycling light system! it's Magnic Light


Magnic Light is the first compact contactless bicycle dynamo - a new invention which we believe has the potential to revolutionize bicycle illlumination. Magnic Light is so powerful and looks so magic at first glance that most people search for a trick behind. They can't believe a dynamo can produce electric energy without touching the wheels. There are some on the market but they need magnets attached to the wheels and they don't produce constant bright light. The Magnic Light dynamo does not need any magnets attached to the wheels and it produces enough energy for a brilliant light comparable to the best hub dynamos available, while beating the efficiency of hub dynamos by a wide margin.
This means Magnic Light has the comfort of a strong battery light (lightweight, no cables, no friction and hence nearly no decelaration, no noise) without needing batteries any more!

Revolights - Kickstarter

I was looking for lighting system for my bike where i'm planning to have evening cycling after sky is dark.
Been looking for cheap China made option till the expensive lighting yet it's look not that promising and it's normal. It's not something that interest me by looking at it online.

Somehow, i'm came to this Revolight project in kickstarter. It's an awesome lighting system that makes me feel excited about it! I wanted to get it when i'm 1st saw it.

Amazing right! 

Amazing is one thing. So automatically the next thing to look for is the price tag. It's really turn off for me, at least as a Malaysian, it's not yet in the market, but scheduled to launch in late June 2012 with a price tag of USD220 plus international shipping of USD30.

Those who contribute in Kickstarter paid USD200 with international shipping USD30. They will be the first batch users receiving Revolights when it's ready.



Enjoy the video.
