Hi all the smaller ones I have ever bought will not charge low wattage units. Even bought one of amazon 90,000 mah. Charges for a bit then just stops charging because its a low.current. assume a proper power bank like anker solix will actually charge. Any recommendations from people that have managed to charge headtorches and lights etc
Thanks
Thanks

How did you get them so cheap, the 3 rods set is 623 on pecheur? They look good and not made in china which is a bonus

Esp chod hammers size 6 are the ones for hinges. Think ive lost 2 fish in 5 years on them. They aren't as sharp in the bigger sizes but they are a thicker gauge.

Thanks all ones I have are 300g 12 inch by 16 inch 20 quid for 100. Maybe better off keeping and double bagging if need be. The amazon pictures show it holding screws proper misleading

Looking for some that people have had that are proper thick high quality or similar type of bags the brands use. Bought some off Amazon said heavy duty but definitely aren't!
Thanks

Guess so, I got 12ft 3.5lb in jap shrink. Not gonna be casting 200 yards with them, but I reckon super for playing fish and getting a decent way out if needed. I think they might be closing the rods side down due to success of the elevate baits arm. Thats why the rods are half price now direct. 399 each on tft, pre order. Honestly for a " mass" produced rod the quality is ridiculous. JT46 japanese toray carbon is top end i really like the wrap finish. Come in a lovely neoprene sleeve aswell.

Ones he built me are spot on. Just the spigot on one doesnt push in a as far as other 2. (Like 2mm) Common thing in carp rods, not something most would care about id imagine but it plays with my ocd. Still not been collected. 1500 quid sitting in my hallway. 😂
Just been delivered some cirrus rods which is owned by elevate supplies ltd, i believe max cottis is involved on rod side. And now you buy 3 you get a free adjustable net. Unreal build quality, super slim blank. very impressed and a quarter of price including a net worth a look for sure if still in market for rods...🔥

Recently ordered a custom set. Been pretty good communication wise on fb. But I was messaging tom direct as he had done my previous rods back in the day. Anyway rods arrived after a 6 weeks or so and they are unreal. However there was one minor gripe that played with my ocd, he was good as gold about them having them back and he said he would not invoice me till 100% happy. I decided to "reject" them as he calls it. Haven't paid a penny yet, they are sitting in my hallway waiting to be collected by UPS. so credit where it is due the service, communication has been great. And I wouldn't think twice about using them again as they are at the top of the game build wise.
