Yep, I've got an older one but recently got two 26000mah from Amazon for around £20 each. I take them both on sessions over 48hrs but rarely even empty one! It uses around 20% to fully charge an iPhone X. Why people need massive packs is beyond me, seen people taking TV's and stuff - haven't they heard of tablets? It's not 1990 any more.

I too use a Trakker NXG PVA pouch for all my end tackle. I only use 2 types of rigs so dont need a huge tackle box full to the brim with bits.

Not actually seen one of these so just looked it up on the tube. First thoughts are the fecking size of the thing? Daft.

I don't get the need for a hundred little compartments, its like the angling equivalent of my grans jewellery box.

Yes. Great for weeks away angling. Or , as i use it mostly to tackle up different rods whilst relaxing in the garden.

Just watch a video on this. It's enormous! Thought the whole point in having so many little compartments was to save space?

I have a Korda compac 125 for all my needles scissors etc, stuff I need to hand, and a 140 for rig making bits, and a tackle safe. Best solution I've found to be honest, retired my mini fox box. Although it can sometimes take a while to find stuff, the lid has a zipped compartment that the regularly used stuff can go in.

I also have a 100 size for leads.

I brought one of those, the USB port pulled out on the first use 😂
Rang them and they said to take it back to the shop that I purchased it from and they will send it back to ridgemonkey and then it Will either get repaired or not if it's found to be my fault.
Just chucked it in the shed and put it down to a bad purchase. One and only ridgemonkey product I've ever brought.

Same here, wouldn't be without it
A little OCD but I enjoy filling all the inner box compartments, messes with my head having a empty 1 though
Love the lack of garish branding, spooling up the dispensers can be a pain, even worse dropping a open 8 compartment shallow

I tried cutting down but searching through packets to find the right item then trying to get a poxy hook bead from the very bottom corners with numb fingers then trying to find a flat surface to put it all on prior to assembly....no thanks, you can keep that
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
