Right, got my Yaqi package today. I hoped that I could write it out before the next OP but oh well.https://aliexpress.com/item/1005003460449982.htmlI'm yet to get the hang of it so that I actually run the blade across my face instead of picking up the lathe, and also finally get a feel as for how exactly I should shave in the first place, but it's definitely a massive step-up over the Wilkinson OTT crap. Obviously you don't have the OTT convenience and putting in the razor is tricky but it's manageable.https://aliexpress.com/item/1005003379654288.htmlA very nice hefty handle. Together with the Tile it comes 20g heavier than the Wilkinson which is definitely a plus when it comes to shaving.https://aliexpress.com/item/1005002989055748.htmlSolid lathe bowl. It's a thick dense plastic that almost feels like ceramic. The brush sits neatly in the designated groove.https://aliexpress.com/item/32810912313.htmlAnd speaking of the brush. Gave it, as well as the razor a bit of boiling water initiation, of course only waving the bristles in the hot water as to not melt the glue. The bristles are nice and soft, while the handle is very sturdy. The initial lathe was shit due to me not getting the proportions right but it definitely frothed up nicely.Overall, very happy with the set. Not just because I got it at half the price but also because it's a genuinely nice shaving set. Guess I can now get a nicer shaving cream and start learning how exactly I should shave properly finally.
>>106381834Oh yeah forgot to mentionhttps://aliexpress.com/item/1005002989055748.htmlThe stand is nice and looks very classy. They had the thicker dark resin flow down to the darker, more translucent one giving it a nice look, however there is some white residue stuck inside it from milling the razor hole, but it's a minor defect.
>>106381834>Guess I can now get a nicer shaving cream and start learning how exactly I should shave properly finally.If you want a good price/quality compromise, get prosano. The green one is what I have. It's fairly priced and it lasts for goddamn ever. Has a eucalyptus aroma though, which you may dislike as it's a scent I associate with older people. Seems to make girls with daddy issues go wild though, so that may be a bonus or a issue depending on your views on life. It's grown on me personally.As for learning how to shave properly, don't neglect softening your hair (either shave after a shower, or add some warm water to a towel and wrap that around your chin for a few minutes before shaving). Makes a big difference. You'll fuck up a few times and it'll not be super fast the first few tries, but you'll get the hang of it entirely naturally and quickly.>>106381815My condolences anon.
>>106381920>a scent I associate with older peopleRight now I'm using Wars which is one of *the* most old man scents around. Mainly because it's piss cheap and it's either that or Lider if you go to the store. But Proraso Green, I'll keep that in mind next time I order razor blades. I'm yet to find my razor blade of choice since I don't even know what to look out for when judging a blade. Right now I'm running through Derby Premiums I had for years and haven't bothered to use.>don't neglect softening your hairI have ball pubes for facial hair so it's already very soft. My issue is that I don't know how to orientate my head, eyes and blade to have a proper shave. I do all kinds of gymnastics only to pick up the lathe without shaving anything. So my issue is mainly in the technique.
>>106381920>prorasoBased. I've been using the white one for a while and it's really good too. However it smells like citrus or something which I'm not too fond of, maybe I'll try the green one next time.
>>106364061Wait. Does this apply to USB cables too???What about the branded ones? UGreen, Baseus, Toocki?
>>106382080Frogposters are the second most worthless posters outside of 'teens, ignore the faggot.
>>106382053Green seems to be the most common, I've seen white and red at stores though. Red is supposedly sandalwood, so I might give that a try next. But as I already said, it seems to last ages, so that'll be quite some time. I like the green scent, it's just menthol and eucalyptus, very classic.>>106381999>I'm yet to find my razor blade of choice since I don't even know what to look out for when judging a bladePersonally I just get cheap ones in bulk and replace them a little more often. Seems to work out fine for me. If you have a 3D printer, print yourself a blade storage and just replace whenever it gets dull.>So my issue is mainly in the technique.Fair enough, the chin area is the hardest so you'll need some time to get the hang there, for everything else just move your head such that you somewhat stretch the skin you want to shave, place the razor at ~45 degrees to your skin and pull lightly. If your blades are sharp you should basically not need any pressure with your hand, the weight of the razor itself is enough. You'll get it eventually, I cut myself a few times when I got started too, it is what it is. Consider aftershave if you get razor burn too.
I've been ranting not to buy this cheap "rotary tool" in previous threads, and I maintain my stance in general, but I actually found a reasonable use for it; sanding down corrosion on battery contacts that got covered in battery acid. Scratching the contacts with screwdrivers didn't seem to work, with this the tool has already paid for itself. Lucky little accident. Still if you want a rotary tool that doesn't suck ass, take a bit more money and get a proper one.
flashlights arrivedhttps://a.aliexpress.com/_EvXRjty3 bucks a pop, bought 2I think this is my favourite edc item now.type c charging, detachable clip that you can put on several ways, light up shell, strong main light with nice controls (holding the button goes into momentary boost mode), good lantern flood mode with 3 brightnesses and 2 colors, magnetic ass, hanging thingy for carabiner or rope.it's almost as bright as my trustfire mt10
>>106383231glowie feature is nice
shutter 1/1000 iso 500 fixed settingsweird that flood mode goes from bright to dim, also on these settings it's hard to see but lowest mode is still pretty nicely bright up close. you can position the clip over the LEDs so it doesn't blind, sort of it's really nice.one thing I'm not testing for now is how long the battery lasts. sellers sheet says 200mah and 4-5h on lowest mode.

>>106383328No goddamn idea, never seen that before desu.
God damn you jannies!
>>106381629i third or fourth the moondrops being bad value. if they were like $15 i'd consider it. a somewhat fragile open case is unacceptable at this pricepoint considering we're putting actual battery level displays on cases now
Mods why did you do this to us
Jannies? more like Janniggers, amirite?
>>106383328well, alrighty then.(that also arrived)
>>106384175Based and making the best out of a bad situation pilled
>>106381416 (Cross-thread)LTT did a video on dashcams in 2022, and back then all the dashcams used the exact same sensor from 2018 regardless of price.IDK if things have improved since then.
>>106384175Review please?
holy shit we're dying. executive orders voted for the coins. shvidko.
