What Should Be In The African American Man’s Closet

What Should Be In The African American Man’s Closet

What should be in the modern African-American man’s closet? What are those items he must possess to have a wardrobe he is proud of? The goal of this article is to not only present a visual guide of clothing essentials, but also to help you understand the foundations of true style so you can look at something and determine if it’s in sync with who you are and your stylistic beliefs. Some may argue that dressing the black man should not be that deep but it is, because clothes are unspoken language. Every time a black man dresses up, he is sending a message about how he views the world and his place in it.

Who am I?

Self-understanding is the bedrock of true style. Self-understanding is knowing your history, your values, your message and your vision. The world makes assumptions about how black men should behave, live or act and, most importantly, look. However, there are many ways to be black as there are many black people. So, binding yourself to what the world believes you should be instead of understanding who you really are will prevent you from finding your power. 

How do I turn self-knowledge to style? 

Style is a matter of inspiration and developing an individual sense of what is elegant and wearable. So, what inspires you? Music, art, food, sports? Find a way to incorporate it into your wardrobe. Who inspires you? Look at these people, study how they put themselves together and how they have crafted a signature style. 

Style is also a matter of understanding the principles of good grooming and marrying it with personal inspiration. Good grooming may still be a vague term for men who just want to know what they need to have in their wardrobe. So simplifying further, style is understanding your body type and picking the right clothing to enhance it. Learn more about dressing for your body type by learning about fit, color and pattern. 

Style begins with a classic Wardrobe

A classic wardrobe stays timeless regardless of the changing fashions and relies heavily on neutrals, solid colors and discrete patterns. But do not confuse a classic wardrobe with invisibleness or blandness. A classic wardrobe is like a foundation, once you get this foundation right, you can start to buy with extras. 

Some people say that good things come in threes and the list of closet essentials have been grouped in threes to create combinations that can produce over 20 different looks.

The 3 Types of Layers – Cable-knit crew neck sweater, sports jacket and trench coat    

The 3 Shoes You Need – Oxford dress shoes for formal occasions, sneakers for everyday casual wear and Chukka boots for everything in between. Allen Edmonds is a brand that makes all 3 types well.

The Formal Trio - A classic tuxedo in black, a navy suit and a charcoal grey suit for black tie and business events. Check Amazon for Calvin Klein work suits in standard colors at very good prices.

The 3 Shirts – The white dress shirt to wear with a tuxedo, a light blue shirt to wear with a navy suit and a lightly striped shirt to wear with a gray suit. Check Suit Supply for classic fabrics and tailoring.

3 Ties -A classic bow tie for wearing a tuxedo, a solid colour plain tie to wear with a navy blue suit and a patterned tie to wear with a charcoal gray suit. 

3 Pairs of Casual Pants - A dark wash jeans which goes with any T-shirt, sweater or blazer, a Chinos trouser for the days you want to ditch the jeans and a wool trouser for a casual sophisticated look. 

3 Cords – A black formal belt for dressing a suit, brown casual belt that is practical and hardwearing and a fabric belt for summer style. Columbia has some sturdy and well-designed pieces.

Accessories Threesome -  A hat, cufflinks and a great watch.

3 African Inspired Attires To Show Some Culture – Joestylee is an African inspired brand that embodies the courage of the modern African American Man to do something different and unexpected. If you live in Africa, there are many street stores and local shops that make traditional and modern African articles of clothing.  If you live outside Africa, then Joestylee is your go-to online store.

With The African American Man’s Closet essentials, you will be able to create the 5 most popular dress styles for men which are casual, smart casual, business casual, business professional and cocktail attire.

The Song And The Silence

Rise of the Tomb Raider Lara x Jacob Rating: T

AO3

Jacob knows his duty lies with his people, not a woman that saved his life once. And still. As she is drowning in a river of ice, he is the first to admit that he has never been the smartest of men. But faith. Faith he has plenty.

So I replayed ROTR and I fell down the rabbit hole again. God, these two. I shook this out in an hour, and this ~might ~ become a series, but I make no promises.

This is not a song fic, but I was listening to Giants by Dermot Kennedy, and if something fits, I sits.

 I knew from the start    You'd be the one to set me free

Out of the corner of his eye he saw a flash of dark hair disappearing under crashing waves, followed seconds later by the falling power pole, buried in its wake. Jacob swallowed a shout as he ducked behind a boulder, catching his breath. Inadvertently, Lara ’s quick and nimble escape down the cables had been drawing Trinity’s attention, allowing him to slip away. Quickly he glanced over his cover, trying to find a glance of her beneath the waters, but found nothing. He ought to go, ought to leave her to her fate, even if it was cruel. He’d been gone for days, stuck in Constantine’s prison, and he knew his people needed him. Within minutes of careful treading he would be hidden beneath the canopy of trees, on his way to his village, his people, his duty. If  she was alive somehow and  not torn to pieces by debris or rocks, he might be able to save her, but it would cost him time that he owed to his people and holy purpose. It grieved him, but she ’d be one in a line of thousands of sacrifices he had had to make in the millennium he had walked this earth. A sharp whistling announced more rockets, followed by subdued explosions and a splash of water bursting through its surface. Jacob ducked back into cover, and a moment later the helicopter ’s droning sound got louder as it flew over him, back to the Gulag base, apparently satisfied in their purpose of killing her. And rightly so, in all probability. He’d seen her fight, and her very presence in the valley suggested she was capable, sturdy, athletic and lucky as well, but it would need more than luck to survive this. It would need the grace of God.

Jacob sighed heavily as he peeked over the boulder, checking whether or not the air was clear, before jumping over it and sliding down the hillside. The argument was over in his head before it had properly started; he was a rational man, but he was also a believer, and while his mind told him his duty lay elsewhere, his heart told him to believe in the notion he had felt when he had first seen her: that she was change. He headed to the edge of the riverbank, but could not see any movement or sign of her amongst the depths. Jacob was not surprised — the fall and the cold ought to have knocked her unconscious, if they had not killed her outright. He shrugged out of his coat and dove into the water, his muscles contracting sharply against the icy cold. With swift strokes he swam down and ahead, looking for her in the dark, dim, disturbed waters. Guide me. Drawing on his faith, he looked around, and there, to the right and below him, she was. Miraculously intact, not surrounded by a cloud of blood. In a few strokes he was by her side, shaking her slightly, but her eyes remained closed, her body unresponsive. Deftly he wrapped an arm around her and made way for the surface, his lungs slowly starting to burn. After a few moments that felt like eternity — not for him, but  to  him,  for  her — they finally broke through the surface. With effort he heaved her out of the water, hoisting himself after her. Hastily his fingers found the pulse point at her throat, barely stopping there to find a weak thrum, and sliding further to extend her neck back and clear her throat.Jacob had lost count how many times he had saved people from drowning, the movements were second nature. Not all lips had been as cold as hers though, and it worried him greatly. It was equally luck and misfortune that she was wearing nothing but a shirt — a jacket or cloak would surely have dragged her into the depths past his reach, but without such protection her body temperature was already dangerously low even before she had dropped into the icy river.

Maybe a little challenge might help her find the conviction. He pressed harder, feeling a rip crack under the heel of his hand. Regrettable, but she would be none the wiser, if she woke up. “Come on. Look at how far you’ve come…”, in wry sense of doom, he thought that she might return to life simply out of stubborn will. She had seemed the type. He leaned down again, giving her air, heat, hopefully life.  One, two, three  … And then, finally, a gasp, a cough, the river spewing forth from her lungs. Her body convulsed briefly in the effort to expel the water from it, and he slid his arm under her shoulders to support her. For a moment, a pained groan escaped her, her eyelids fluttered, before she slipped back into unconsciousness. Her lips were blue, her skin white and ashen, but at least she was breathing and shivering. If he could get her to a shelter and a fire quick enough, she would live. A small, relieved chuckle escaped him as he lifted her up, grateful for her slight frame and his slightly supernatural constitution. He sat her down on top of his coat, fighting a little to get her arms into the sleeves and wrapping her body in it to shield it against the biting winds— winds that felt even to him like sharp knives against his soaked body. Jacob gently lifted her in his arms and turned around, making his way carefully along the icy riverbank. The closest shelter would be the cave near the old sawmill; if God was willing, he would encounter Nikolaj or one of the other scouts. Konstantin had asked him about sabotage and skirmishes down in the valley, that some Remnant were held to be questioned below the old train yard, threatening him with killing them. If they were indeed there, he would not have to abandon his duty completely to save Lara. At least he could strategize and lead while he healed her, maybe even send word to Sofia.

The way was not long, but treacherous, and with the added weight took longer than usual. Eventually, he finally caught sight of the ruined roof of the sawmill. Climbing the frozen brook, he finally found some of his people, who were notably relieved at his sight, and visibly confused that he was cradling a foreign woman and fervently rubbing her arms — until they saw the colour of her face. With a few quick commands and traded infos, Jacob enlisted the help of two of his men to lift Lara up the steep cliff unto the ledge and finally into the sheltered cave. Quickly, a fire was started, and he sent his men out, one to report to the others, one to gather supplies. He gathered cloth and a tattered carpet to make her more comfortable, preparing a bed for her next to the hearth, hanging one blanket over the stove to warm. Methodically, he removed her wet shirt, pants and shoes, leaving her small-clothes to preserve her dignity, and hanging the rest to dry over the hearth. Kneeling next to her, Jacob pulled a pouch out of his pocket, and gathered some of the powder in his hands. Muttering the familiar words, he worked the herbs into her arms, shoulders, abdomen and legs, paying extra time to heal the rib he had broken earlier.

The Lord is your guardian, your protective shade at your right hand … Where his hands worked, her skin regained its peachy hue, now almost warm to the touch. Finally his fingers returned to her throat, satisfied to now find a steady beat there. Jacob stood and stretched, himself still drenched and shivering. He retrieved the blanket from the stove and covered Lara with the warm fabric, then gently toweled her hair dry with some cloth. . While he was stoking the fire, Ruslan returned with firewood, some dried boar meat, a freshly caught rabbit, and the herbs he had requested. They talked briefly, both catching the other up on the happenings of the past days. “Will you go to the village and organize the defense?” Ruslan asked, glancing down at Lara’s huddled form by the fire, questions clear in his eyes. “As soon as she is awake, and I had a chance to talk to her. She freed me from the Gulag, she is an ally to our cause.”  Or, at least I hope she will be.   “  Spread the word that she is to be helped, not harmed. ” Ruslan nodded, and left shortly afterwards. Jacob’s worries were eased a little, now that he knew of the situation— not as hopeful as he had wished, not as dire as he had feared— and that he had regained a small bit of control. He busied himself with a kettle, gathered and melted snow, boiled tea out of the herbs he had requested, in the mean time trying to dry himself of best as he could. While he was shivering, he refrained from stripping out of his wet clothes because he did not want to make Lara uncomfortable. It was unlikely she would wake up soon, but he did not want her to mistrust him because she woke up to find he had undressed both of them. No, freezing was better; it would not kill him.

When the tea was done and sufficiently cooled down to be drinkable, he gently lifted her upper body up, supporting her head sideways against his shoulder so she could not choke, and slowly, patiently dribbled the tea into her mouth. A good portion of the tea drenched both of them, but it was warm and did little harm, and she drank sufficiently. He dabbed the spilled tea up and bundled her up again after checking her temperature again. Warmer and warmer. Sipping his own cup of tea, he settled near the fire, trying to soak up the warmth. While he ate some dried meat to get his empty stomach warmed up to the idea of food, his mind wandered over the events of the last days, and not lastly, the woman that lay before him and the enigma she presented.

Jacob had heard her minutes before Konstantin and her had appeared in sight, screaming and cursing him, Ana, Trinity, spewing threats and insults, and as they rounded the corner, he could see, physically putting up as much of a fight as she could. There's no  us  . I don't even know who you are, or why you're here. Sorry... I'm not feeling particularly trusting right now. Now that they were out of there, the memory almost made him chuckle. Jacob did not know what had transpired outside of his cell, but the fresh, personal  hurt  that was radiating off of her was almost palpable in the air. She snapped at him, which was not especially surprising giving he was a stranger in an adjacent cell that she had just been thrown into, but then, immediately, the fire of her fury was tempered by guilt, and it seemed she could not stop herself from apologizing.Then, in a flash, while he was still trying to get her measure and trust, she had ripped a pipe out of the wall, clawed her way through a wall, ripped the bars open and was out of the cell. Of course he had known what she was here for— most of the foreigners that stepped in this valley were here for that. We  may not be enemies. I can see that. I suspect you do too.

It was almost comedic, how fast she relented, how hard she had tried to shut him out. He had watched her back, the wish to make herself hard and strong warring with her wish to find answers. Of course, he could not be sure of her true motives, but of all the people he had met, Jacob had his fair experience in seeing people for who they were. What he saw was an ally, not an enemy. What he saw was a determined woman on an almost desperate quest — but a quest not for her sake. What he saw was a light that some people, few amongst so many, carried within them. What he saw was a strong heart, struggling to be good, and a spirit that was confused as to what being good meant, and what it would cost. There used to be a time, centuries ago, where the same could be said for him. Jacob ’s heart ached for her fight. He knew it all too well. And he knew all too well the foolish mistakes that might come out of such aspirations, if left without guidance. He wondered what she could become if she had the guidance that he had lacked. Wondered, if he had had the same, his mistakes would have been different ones.

By then a deep fatigue gripped his body. His stamina was better than most people’s, another advantage of his gifts, but even he had to rest, and now that he had stopped running, the last days caught up with him. With a groan he stood slowly, and grabbed her now dry clothes. Gently and slowly he dressed her again, providing her with as much warmth as he could, before he made a bed for himself. Rationally, it would be best to share the blankets, to keep close and save and share the heat, but there was a conversation to be had, and he had to tread carefully. She came from a different world than he. So he made his bed a respectable distance away, still close enough to the hearth so both would be warm. He did not know what fate awaited his people, but for now, he did know that Lara would live, and he had learned to take the small victories as they came.

Jacob stoked the fire one last time, and then allowed himself to sleep.

Some people lament that modern life relies on electricity so much—they seem to think we should go back to burning wood and gas stoves. But electricity is a wonderfully clean technology: no smoke, no fumes, no nasty chemicals. Which is fine for charging smartphones, but you can't take enough electricity with you to cook breakfast on when you're in the middle of nowhere, can you?

With the Jackery Solar Generator 1000 set, you absolutely can enjoy an abundant supply of safe, clean, free energy anywhere. Use it for lighting, communication, heating, and even cooking. Whether camping or for a tiny off-grid home, the Jackery Solar Generator 1000 might be just the solution you're looking for.

Is This Really a "Solar Generator"?

If you take issue with these large battery systems being called solar generators, on account of them neither having solar capabilities nor actually generating anything, I sympathize. Instead, they're really just massive batteries with different outputs and can be charged from any DC power source or even a wall socket.

But in this case, the Jackery Solar Generator 1000 is a bundle, consisting of two Jackery Solar Saga 100 portable photovoltaic panels, and a Jackery Explorer 1000 battery. So I think the name is actually justified. When purchased in the bundle, you're saving around $100 compared to purchasing them individually.

Strictly speaking though, the included Jackery Explorer 1000 is not a generator; it is a large battery. However, it does the same job as any traditional backup generator, providing both DC and AC 110/220v output. You can either charge it using the bundled solar panels, which takes about a day for a full charge, or you can use the included AC adaptor (though this isn't particularly quicker), or even charge from your vehicle's 12V car socket.

Jackery Explorer 1000 Hardware

Styled in a distinctive dark grey and orange hard ABS plastic with rubber feet on the underside, the Explorer 1000 feels sturdy—but this shouldn't be mistaken for rugged. It's happy to be used outdoors, but with exposed electrical ports, you absolutely shouldn't get it wet, nor should you pierce the casing. It won't survive a fall, but will otherwise handle the rigors of camping and other outdoor activities.

For ease of transport, the carrying handle is integral to the case design, and cannot be folded away or removed for storage. The overall weight of the battery is a mere 22lbs (10kg), and it measures 13.1 x 9.2 x 11.1 inches.

This feels like a Goldilocks battery size: light enough to carry comfortably while storing enough juice to power the most hungry of electrical needs for a sufficient time. More than 1000Wh and carrying it becomes unwieldy; while lower capacity results in the AC output being essentially useless for all but low power laptop adaptors. The Jackery Explorer 1000 balances capacity and portability perfectly.

On one side you'll find a small emergency flashlight. It's not bright enough to light an entire tent, but would do in a pinch. It has one brightness setting, as well as an emergency broadcast, though oddly it repeats "S O" rather than "S O S". In an emergency, I'm sure it would do ("wait", the mountain rescue leader exclaimed, "that guy is actually signaling so so so, not SOS, let's go home!"), but you'll need a camping light as well.

The assorted of input and output ports, as well as the display panel, adorn the front side of the unit. The LCD panel is basic but functional, displaying a five-segment remaining capacity as well as exact power discharge values. However, I should note that this is the previous generation of display on Jackery devices: newer models like the Explorer 1500 that we reviewed last month have a color display that also displays the estimated time remaining.

Jackery Explorer 1000 Lifespan and Capacity

As the name would suggest, the Jackery Explorer 1000 holds approximately 1000 watt-hours of power. A watt-hour (Wh) is the total amount of power needed to run a one-watt device for one hour. In other words, 1000Wh capacity can theoretically run a 1000-watt device for one hour; or a 100W device for 10 hours; or a 1W device for 1000 hours, etc. I say theoretically because there's always a loss due to conversion inefficiency (wasted as heat, or on fans to cool the battery).

To test this capacity, I plugged in an electric heater that uses just under 1000W on the lowest setting. This is a constant power draw, which makes it ideal for testing. Other appliances such as a fridge fluctuate significantly, drawing more or less power as required (to cool the fridge down again after having opened the door), so it's difficult to draw conclusions with those or make claims such as how many hours the fridge will run for using the Explorer 1000. Given the conversion inefficiencies, I was expecting the 1000W heater to last just under an hour, and sure enough, it cut out at the 55-minute mark. The capacity claim would appear to be accurate.

The Jackery Explorer 1000 uses Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide (NMC) cells which are rated to 500 charge cycles. After this, the capacity is reduced to around 80%. While this is less than Lithium Iron Phosphate cells, it's still a reasonable lifespan. Even if you used a full charge and discharge every day, it would still operate at peak capacity for a year and a half. It won't suddenly stop working after that, it simply won't hold as much charge as new.

To extend the lifespan of the Explorer 1000, you should avoid using charging and discharging features simultaneously, even if it is technically possible. This is not an Uninterruptible Power Supply.

Related: The Best UPS You Can Buy Right Now

Thankfully, the SolarSaga 100 has separate ports for charging USB devices, so you needn't rely on the battery for topping up smaller devices throughout the day. More on those later.

Explorer 1000 Outputs

The model we've reviewed is for the UK, which has rather large AC ports, so there are only two on this; the US model features three AC outputs.

In addition, you'll find two USB-C ports, and two USB-A ports, running up to 5V 2.4A (QC3.0) max. The USB-C doesn't support the full Power Delivery (PD) spec, so it might not keep an intensive video editing session on a MacBook Pro running, but should otherwise trickle-charge it.

Lastly, there's a 12V car port output (otherwise known as a "cigarette lighter" to us Brits).

Activating any of the outputs on the Explorer 1000 requires only a single press of the appropriate button. This is a lot quicker than competitors where you have to long-press first a power button, then long-press the AC or DC button (then do it again because you were just a fraction of a second off the required button pressing time!)

Compared to similarly specced batteries, the output capabilities of the Jackery Explorer 1000 are also impressive. The maximum continuous output is 1000W, so even running at full whack, it would take one hour to drain it. This is enough for many household appliances and smaller power tools, but not a large kettle or convection oven.

The surge output is a substantial 2000W. This means anything you have plugged can very briefly draw up to 2000W, but shouldn't exceed 1000W in normal continuous usage. The Jackery Explorer 1000 will protect itself from over-discharge (as well as over-charge), but you shouldn't make a habit of plugging in things that are too powerful. I tested this with the electric heater on full power, which surged to 2200W for a few seconds, at which point the Explorer 1000 shut itself off. Lower surge values would last longer before shutting down the unit. Dropping the heater back to low (1000W) power mode, the Explorer 1000 was undamaged and could be easily turned back on again.

Charging the Explorer 1000 with SolarSaga 100

On the input side you'll find both an 8mm DC jack, and an Anderson port. Anderson ports are another connector suitable for higher currents, and are found mostly on Jackery and GoalZero batteries.

The SolarSaga 100 panels provided in this set use an 8mm DC barrel jack as standard. In order to use them both at the same time, Jackery also provides a Y-splitter cable, terminating in an Anderson plug. This connects them together in parallel.

Two panels are provided in the Solar Generator 1000 set, and this is pretty much the limit of what you can use. Although each Solar Saga 100 panel can theoretically output 100W, combining them in parallel to charge the Explorer 1000 results in a maximum of around 135W. This is due to the operating voltage of the panels (18V) and the maximum input current of the battery (7.5A). You might be thinking "why not wire them in series then?", but that would push them over the maximum input voltage of 30V. My testing confirmed this. Individually, each of the panels was consistently putting out 90-100W, both to the Explorer 1000 and other batteries I tested with. Combined, I achieved in the range of 125-130W. This feels like a bit of a mismatch between the panel rating and the charge controller, but it does at least mean a more consistent experience. It will take 8 hours of sun to charge the Explorer 1000 using the two SolarSaga 100 panels—whether that's dismal British sun, or in the middle of a Californian desert.

If you need to charge faster than a day of sun, you should look elsewhere. You should also check panel ratings if you're going to source your own, to ensure it falls under 30V and no more than 7.5A.

The SolarSaga 100 panels are the best portable panels I've seen yet, for a number of reasons.

Featuring a hard plastic handle, they're just a little more durable than the other fully flexible panels on the market and are less likely to contort during transport.

They're a bi-fold design and roughly the size of a small tabletop. Other portable panels tend to be four-fold, which I find to be a little unwieldy, often resulting in undue strain placed on the joints.

The handle integrates magnetic clasps, while other panels typically use a fabric strap to secure the panel in storage. This makes the SolarSaga 100 effortless to set up.

On the rear of the panels is a rigid pull-out flap to act as a stand, which is attached via a three-point fabric strap. Other panels use only a two-point fixing, which often results in the strap dangling out and stopping the stand from re-attaching to the velcro.

Lastly, in addition to the 8MM DC cable to charge the battery, the SolarSaga 100 panels have a USB-C and USB-A port to charge smaller devices directly, located inside the zipped pocket. While this does reduce the overall charge going into the Explorer 1000, it means you're making much more efficient use of the solar. Each time you convert or store energy, you're losing a little to inefficiencies and heat loss, so cutting out the middleman battery is a great idea. It also means you're putting less strain on the cells from simultaneously charging and discharging them, which extends the life of your battery. While you might need to top up smartphones and tablets throughout the day, you can leave the Explorer 1000 for only infrequent use, such as heating or cooking.

Individually, these are all insignificant design features that taken alone wouldn't justify the premium price of the SolarSaga 100. But combined, these features make the SolarSaga 1000 the best portable panel on the market. They're easier to deploy, easier to tidy away, and better for the lifespan of your battery.

Should You Buy The Jackery Solar Generator 1000?

For me, the Explorer 1000 hits a sweet spot between capacity and convenience. You can still run most higher-powered appliances, like an induction hob or small heater, without struggling to carry it.

That said, the Explorer 1000 is a basic portable battery that does what it says on the box, and not a lot else. It can't be daisy-chained to another battery to expand capacity (though that's pretty rare in this market), nor can the internal cells be replaced at the product's end of life. Swappable battery units are also rare at the moment, but we're starting to see them coming to market now, so I suspect Jackery will have their own model with swappable cells by next year.

Although the Explorer 1000 has a small emergency flashlight, it's not particularly bright, and won't replace your need for a camping light. It also doesn't have a Bluetooth speaker either. This might sound like a silly criticism, but I mention it because some batteries do actually feature a Bluetooth speaker, so if you want a more all-in-one portable power supply with all the bells and whistles, this isn't it.

Having USB charging ports directly on the panels is a superb way to use the free energy more efficiently, and combined with other small design features like the bi-fold design and magnetic clasps, makes the SolarSaga 100 the best portable panels you'll find.

Finally, although I've not had cause to contact support, other reviewers note that Jackery generally has better product support than other brands. They may be made in China, but Jackery has a support center in the US, so you're much more likely to get problems dealt with.

Overall, the Jackery Explorer 1000 performs excellently as either an off-grid or emergency power supply. Combined with the two SolarSaga 100 portable panels, you have a complete off-grid kit to enjoy clean, abundant electrical energy anywhere.

Xbox Series X Unboxed: Microsoft’s Next-Gen Console Isn’t a Fridge But It’s Definitely Hefty

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Reports of the Xbox Series X‘s size have been greatly exaggerated: you won’t find anything as big as Snoop Dogg’s monolith-shaped fridge inside the next-gen console’s retail box. But the first thing you’ll notice when unboxing this console in November is that it’s pretty heavy. Despite the countless memes and comparison pictures declaring the Xbox Series X an absolute chonk, I was still surprised by how hefty the console is.

At about 5.9 inches wide and 11.8 inches tall, and weighing in at 9.8 pounds, the console definitely has a commanding presence. Not quite PC tower (or fridge) height when in its natural vertical position, the Xbox Series X is just slightly taller than the Xbox One X if you were to stand it on its side but is nowhere near as tall as the PlayStation 5, which towers over the competition at 15.4 inches in height. The next-gen Xbox is also the third heaviest console ever made behind the PS5, which weighs 9.9 pounds, and the 11-pound PS3.

While you can certainly lay the Xbox Series X flat, the horizontal position is sort of awkward, with the console’s stand sticking out from the left side. This platform looks best when it’s standing, which might mean getting creative when it comes to finding a place for it in your home entertainment center. That’s definitely something I’m still trying to figure out for myself. For now, I’ve given my Xbox Series X, which was provided to me by Microsoft for review purposes, a home on a side table next to my desk.

As you can see, Microsoft’s heavy-hitter absolutely towers over the poor Hulk:

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

I should note that I’ve not actually turned on the console yet, so I won’t be talking about any launch games, UI impressions, load times, how hot its components get, or the online experience here. That’ll come closer to launch. For now, what I can say is that the Xbox Series X is a sturdy piece of hardware that looks and feels deserving of its premium $499 price tag. While I wasn’t in love with the design of the Xbox Series X when it was first unveiled late last year, it quickly grew on me once I had the console in front of me.

Microsoft’s console designers clearly took a minimalist approach, one in stark contrast to the PS5, and it really works to the Xbox Series X’s advantage. I like that the front of the console isn’t so burdened by ports and that the outer shell has a smooth, clean finish. Even the vents at the top of the console, which have a bright green coloring on the inside that kind of makes it look like the Xbox is glowing, looks stylish.

One nice touch on the front of the console is the power button, which has a very satisfying click when you press it. I was never really a fan of the touch-sensitive power button on the original Xbox One that I too often grazed by accident, shutting down or turning on the console at inconvenient times. It might have sounded neat on paper, but I prefer a button you actually have to press down on. Anyway, when you power on the Xbox Series X, the Xbox symbol will light up and you’ll hear the familiar power-on chirp that Microsoft is reusing from the Xbox One.

As far as ports go, you’ll find the 4K Blu-ray disc drive as well as a single USB port on the front of the console. Above that USB port, you’ll find the bind button for your Xbox accessories that also doubles as an IR receiver for the Xbox One Media Remote. On the back of the console, clustered all the way at the bottom, you have two more USB ports, an Ethernet port, a port to plug in the power cable, an HDMI 2.1 port, and the expansion slot designed for the 1 TB SSD expansion card designed by Seagate. (That expansion card will set you back $219, but you can also plug in an external SSD to one of the USB ports.)

Just a quick note about the console’s power cable: there’s no bulky power supply attached to it, meaning that it’s easier than ever to run that cable through the back of your entertainment center. The external power supply was one of the most frustrating aspects of the original Xbox One, so I’m glad Microsoft went back to the drawing board on that. Of course, that power supply is now inside the Xbox Series X, which might be one of the reasons the console itself is so big. Still, a small quality of life improvement if you ask me.

The only accessory you’ll find inside the Xbox Series X retail box — and the only one you’ll need to start playing — is the Xbox Series X controller, which closely resembles the Xbox Wireless Controller for the Xbox One. Microsoft hasn’t changed very much about the controller for the next generation, and it has no reason to. The current Xbox controller is perhaps the best gamepad on the market, so why fix what isn’t broken?

That said, the controller still features a few quality of life improvements that should make it more accessible than it’s current-gen counterpart. For one, it’s noticeably smaller than the Xbox Wireless Controller and is slightly lighter, with a more ergonomic shape. A clear attempt has been made to make the controller more comfortable for players with smaller hands. Longtime Xbox fans should be able to feel the difference right away.

All of the buttons from the Xbox One controller have made their way to the Xbox Series X peripheral. But there are also two big additions. The first is the Share button located just below the View and the Menu buttons. With a press of the Share button, you can now capture screenshots and record short gameplay clips to share with your friends or on social media. It’s not a new concept — Sony rolled out this function for the PS4 in 2013 — but it’s one Xbox fans will certainly welcome.

The other tweak to the gamepad is the new D-pad, which is heavily inspired by the Xbox Elite controller. Replacing the traditional cross-shaped D-pad, the new facetted dish is designed to enhance the controller experience, allowing players to do things like “hit accurate diagonals or perform sweep actions,” according to Xbox senior designer Ryan Whitaker. I’ve not tried the controller with any games yet, but what I can say as someone used to the conventional D-pad of countless generations past, the Xbox Series X’s version feels a little weird on my thumb. It will probably just take a little getting used to.

Other, smaller additions include textured finishes for both the triggers and bumpers at the top of the controller. The gamepad also has a USB-C port, meaning you’ll no longer need your collection of Micro-USB cables to charge this controller. Unfortunately, this gamepad still needs two AA batteries out of the box, which seems antiquated compared to PlayStation’s rechargeable DualShock and DualSense controllers. (Like with the Xbox One controller, you will have the option to buy a Play & Charge kit for the Xbox Series X gamepad for $25.)

With everything unboxed but no gameplay impressions as of yet, it’s impossible to give a final verdict on the Xbox Series X. There’s still so much to see and do with the next-gen console (and its Sony competitor), and we’ll make sure to share more of our thoughts as soon as we can. For now, the Xbox Series X is truly a sight to behold, with a bold design that’s clever in its simplicity but also intimidating in scope. The controller is less of an innovative jump, but that’s okay when the console itself is such a different beast than what’s come before.

Stay tuned for our full review of the Xbox Series X closer to the console’s launch date on Nov. 10.

Speaking of sturdiness, the Roomba can stand up to a fantastic deal of abuse and won't break down effortlessly.

There's just something about going off the grid. Maybe it's drinking that first cup of coffee as you bask in the morning quiet of the woods. Or perhaps it's swapping stories around the orange glow of a smoky campfire. Whatever it is, eschewing the busy world and getting back to nature is something we should all do from time to time. Just ask Thoreau.

But, if old Hank were around today, he'd probably have a cell phone. He'd also probably have a laptop, and he'd need a way to charge that puppy while pontificating out on Walden Pond. In other words, he'd need some portable power.

Well, Jackery has heard this siren song and created the Explorer 1500 portable solar generator. This beastly unit promises 1800 watts of continuous AC power and a generous 1488 watt-hour capacity. But is it any good? That's what we're going to find out in today's Jackery Explorer 1500 review.

Who is the Jackery Explorer For?

There are two types of consumers who might be interested in the beefy Explorer 1500. The first is looking for a way to power their devices in case of an emergency. For example, sustained power outages, natural disasters, or the odd one-off zombie apocalypse. For these folks, the Jackery Explorer 1500 offers a few benefits over a gas generator.

The second type of consumer who will appreciate the Jackery Explorer is the outdoor type. Jackery’s motto is “Power Outdoors,” which demonstrates the kind of consumer Jackery is targeting.

Campers who enjoy periodically going off-grid, weekend-warriors, and vehicle-based nomads will all love the freedom that the Explorer 1500 provides. This category also includes people like me, who need to power photography equipment, lighting, computers, tablets, phones, and other mobile content creation gear outside my home studio.

Key Features

The most important key feature of the Jackery Explorer 1500 is its high wattage capability. Devices like hairdryers, countertop microwaves, and electric tea kettles use high wattage to operate. Jackery states that this unit should accommodate up to 85% of all electronic devices.

As long as your device doesn’t go above 1800 running watts for a sustained period, then the Explorer 1500 should power it. They can peak at up to 3600 watts, but not for long.

The all-in-one design of the Explorer 1500 is safer than a gas generator and requires very little maintenance. There's also absolutely no risk of carbon monoxide poisoning with this unit.

Plus, the Jackery is much quieter than your standard gas generator and will likely draw less attention from folks who might want to borrow power in an emergency. The device doesn’t need gas to function, and the giant battery will juice up all sorts of household items.

The onboard battery management system keeps the Explorer 1500 from overcharging, and Jackery states that you can leave the device plugged into AC power without any ill effects. The internal lithium-ion battery is rated for 800 cycles. That means you’ll have power when you need it, and you can use the Explorer 1500 for years without killing it.

Recharging the unit is accomplished by plugging it into AC power, using the solar panels, or using the supplied 12-volt car charger. Using these charging methods results in different overall recharge times. The 12-volt car charger is the slowest, taking around 13 hours to recharge the unit thoroughly.

With two SolarSaga 100W panels, a full charge takes around nine hours. With four SolarSaga panels, the total time to fully charge is approximately five hours. Finally, charging the Explorer 1500 with two Jackery AC power adapters takes around two hours to get to 80% power. In this case, you’ll have to purchase another AC power brick, but if you need to fast charge the Explorer 1500, then dual AC is the speediest way to go.

Using the single AC charger supplied with the unit takes around six hours to charge the Explorer 1500 to maximum. This time is relatively fast considering the size of the unit.

Something possible, though not recommended for extended periods, is pass-thru charging. With pass-thru charging, you can charge your devices while you’re charging the Explorer 1500.

Testing the Jackery Explorer 1500

On Jackery’s website, there's a list of appliances that the Explorer 1500 can power and the approximate times the Explorer can run them continuously. Included are a mini cooler for 21 hours, a coffee maker for 68 minutes, a pressure cooker for 75 minutes, an electric grill for 60 minutes, and a microwave for 68 minutes.

To see which household devices the Explorer 1500 would power, I decided to put some of them to the test. I didn’t have a mini-cooler, but I do have a mini chest freezer in my garage, so I hooked the Jackery up to that to see what kind of power it drew. The chest freezer pulled between 300-350 watts when the compressor cycled on, but the wattage output on the Jackery Explorer sank to zero when it stopped.

Some people might ask if the Explorer 1500 will power a camp freezer or mini-fridge. I attempted to answer that question with my tests. Unfortunately, I don't have a camp-sized fridge, but I do have a full-sized home fridge that I plugged into the solar generator.

With the fridge plugged in and running, the Explorer reported around 265 watts being drawn and around 7.1 hours of possible run-time. If you’ve ever experienced a multiple-day power outage, then this device would be great to have around the house as backup power.

As for other appliances, I also tested a 1200W toaster, a 1000W blender, and a 1000W tea kettle. The Jackery Explorer 1500 allowed all of these appliances to function well. Using all three within a short time also only resulted in a 10% reduction in overall charge. This test indicates that the Explorer 1500 is fully capable of powering small kitchen appliances with high wattage requirements.

I also used the Explorer 1500 to power a small 15-amp Ryobi circular saw for a weekend project. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get power output readings for the saw, but the Jackery had more than enough chutzpah to help me finish the job.

The ability to provide power to carpentry tools indicates another potential use case for the Explorer 1500—as portable power for a small worksite. Would I use the unit on a big project with heavy power needs? Probably not. But for minor home repair work, this power station is perfect.

Testing the SolarSaga 100W Solar Panels

I also wanted to test the solar charging potential of the Explorer 1500. Setting up the SolarSaga 100W panels involves plugging the panels into the parallel solar power cable adapters and then plugging those adapters into the two MPPT input ports at the top of the device.

These 8mm connectors are standard on many other Jackery units, such as the Explorer 500 and 1000. Unlike those units, however, the 1500 does not include any Anderson connectors. That means if you’re planning on using the Explorer 1500 with solar panels that aren’t the SolarSaga 100W, you’ll likely need an adapter. Fortunately, you can pick up these adapters relatively inexpensively.

The third version of these SolarSaga 100W panels have some exciting features, such as the included built-in stands, ETFE surfaces, and USB-A and USB-C charging ports, which you can use for on-the-go device top-ups.

Using the panels in direct sun, I was able only to achieve around 60W of power input per panel. But it was around 3 pm and somewhat overcast during testing. So, I was expecting input wattage to fall short of the maximum.

Now, if you’re planning on over-paneling this unit, understand that the Explorer 1500 is only rated for 12-51 volts. The top-end of that range is a hard cap, and if you exceed that voltage on either of the input ports, then the unit will stop charging.

What Do We Love About the Jackery Explorer 1500?

The best part of the Jackery Explorer 1500 is the sheer amount of stuff you can power with the unit. The massive 1488Wh capacity of this unit is also something remarkable. While other generators of this type, such as the Bluetti EB150, and EB240 offer similar or higher watt-hour capacity, these devices can’t touch the Explorer 1500’s muscular 1800W inverter performance.

Then there’s solar power. If you can afford it, solar is your ticket to nomadic off-grid bliss. The SolarSaga 100W panels fold up into an ultra-thin package and are only slightly larger than an extra-large pizza box. Packing these panels into your camper or RV will take up only a tiny amount of space.

The panels’ magnetic clasps are also well made, and each time you close the panels, they snap shut with confidence. But, these panels are pricey. On the other hand, if you’re going to invest in a solar generator like the Explorer 1500, add-on solar is undoubtedly worth the bump in cost.

The unit also has the benefit of being equipped to charge seven devices at once. That means no fighting your kids for a spot on the Explorer when they want to charge up their mobile devices. (Your Nintendo Switch is just as important!) And pass-thru charging is a boon, even if you only use it occasionally.

The build quality of the Explorer 1500 is top-notch, and it’s clear that Jackery wasn’t aiming to cut corners. Or, maybe the company was, because there are no sharp corners on this unit. While that might not seem like it matters, try smacking yourself in the back of your leg with 33 lbs. of pointed object, and you’ll understand why this attention to detail is important.

Finally, the unit’s LCD is bright and colorful, and it looks much better than Jackery’s previous Explorer 1000 iteration. The display is easy to read, and even in the dark, you’ll always know how much juice you have or how much power you’re using.

What’s Not to Love?

There are only a few issues with the Explorer 1500 that prevent it from earning a perfect score. The first is the noise of the fan. This fan is noticeably loud. Will that be a problem for some people? Maybe.

For someone like me, who uses the Explorer in a videography setting, as long as my microphones don’t pick up the generator’s noise, then I’ll be happy. And at this point, I haven’t had much trouble. But don’t expect a unit that is whisper-quiet if you’re thinking about buying the Explorer.

Next is the weight. This unit is ultra-portable, but I would not consider it light. It’s 33 lbs of dead weight that will take some muscle to move over long distances. Again, this might not bother you, but if carrying the equivalent of a car battery around with you on your camping trip sounds agonizing, then you might want to search out some smaller power generation options.

There are also no Anderson connectors on the Explorer 1500. For those folks who already have solar panels with Anderson connectors, this might be a bit frustrating. But, you can solve this frustration by purchasing an Anderson adapter for the Jackery. For this, you’ll have to go to the aftermarket, but these adapters are certainly less money than buying all new solar panels.

Finally, the cost of this unit is going to be hard to swallow for some folks. With a complete set of solar panels, the Explorer 1500 will set you back around $2700. That’s a lot of money for someone who is just looking for supplemental weekend power. But, if you’re a serious outdoor person or a digital nomad, then this price may be perfectly justifiable.

Should You Buy the Jackery Explorer 1500?

If the cost of this unit fits your budget, then the Explorer 1500 is a great buy. While I’d recommend it more for its outdoor uses, there is viability to keeping this device charged up in your basement in case of disaster. And, if you’re the type of person who is vehicle-based and in search of portable power, then the Explorer 1500 by Jackery is a no-brainer.

This device is compact, easy to use, and eliminates one of the major problems of “roughing it.” Namely, the lack of portable electricity. The unit is fantastic, and for us, the Explorer 1500 is forging some new and exciting territory in the mobile power market.

Within Bitcoin We Trust?

Within Bitcoin We Trust?

bitcoin revolution software Right now you have probably noticed of Bitcoin, however may you define it? Frequently it is described while a nongovernment digital foreign currency. Bitcoin is likewise sometimes named a cybercurrency as well as, inside a nod to it is encrypted origins, a cryptocurrency. Those descriptions are precise enough, but they skip the idea. It's like talking about the actual U. S. buck being a green piece regarding paper with photos upon it. bitcoinrevolutionapp I have my own methods of describing Bitcoin. I think from it because store credit with no retail store. A prepaid telephone without having the phone. Precious material but without the metal. Legal put forward for simply no debts, open public or non-public, unless typically the party who it will be tendered wishes to simply accept that. An instrument backed by means of the full faith and consumer credit simply of its confidential designers, in whom We as a result place no faith, in order to whom I offer simply no credit except for ingenuity. My partner and i wouldn't contact a bitcoin with a 10-foot USB cable television. However a fair number associated with people already have, and quite a few more before long may. This is to some extent mainly because entrepreneurs Cameron along with Tyler Winklevoss, best recognized for their role inside the origins of Fb, are now seeking to be able to use their own technological experienced, and cash, to get Bitcoin into the well known. The Winklevosses hope to help start an exchange-traded finance regarding bitcoins. An ETF could cause Bitcoin more widely available to investors who also lack the technical know-how to purchase the electronic digital currency directly. As connected with 04, the Winklevosses are usually told have held around a single percent of all existent bitcoins. Created in 2009 by a good nameless cryptographer, Bitcoin functions on the premise that everything, even intangible bits associated with computer code, can have price so long as ample people decide to take care of it while valuable. Bitcoins exist just as electronic representations and they are not pegged to any standard foreign currency. According to the Bitcoin website, "Bitcoin is created around the perception of any new form of money that uses cryptography to be able to control its creation along with transactions, instead of relying in central authorities. inches (1) New bitcoins usually are "mined" by users who fix computer algorithms to learn virtual coins. Bitcoins' purported designers have said that typically the greatest supply of bitcoins will be capped at twenty-one million. While Bitcoin promotes itself as "a extremely secure and inexpensive method to handle payments, " (2) in reality few companies have made the move for you to accept bitcoins. Of people that have, a sizable range operate in often the black market. Bitcoins are usually traded anonymously over typically the Internet, without any engagement from established financial institutions. As of 2012, product sales of drugs and some other black-market goods accounted regarding an predicted 20 per-cent of exchanges by bitcoins to U. S i9000. money on the main Bitcoin exchange, called Mt. Gox. The Drug Enforcement Business not long ago conducted its first-ever Bitcoin seizure, after reportedly tying a transaction about the nameless Bitcoin-only marketplace Silk Road to the particular sale of pharmaceutical drugs and illegal drugs. Many Bitcoin users have also proposed that the currency may serve as a method to steer clear of taxes. That may be real, but only throughout the sense this bitcoins aid illegal taxation forestalling, not in the sense they actually serve any role in genuine taxes preparation. Under federal duty legislation, no cash requirements to alter hands inside order for a taxable transaction to occur. Dicker along with other noncash exchanges are generally still fully taxable. At this time there is no reason that transactions involving bitcoins would be treated differently. Outside regarding the legal element, Bitcoin's main fans are investors, who have no goal of using bitcoins to buy anything. These people are convinced that typically the limited flow of bitcoins will certainly force their own value to help follow a continual all the way up trajectory. Bitcoin has indeed seen some significant raises in value. But the idea has also experienced major failures, which include an 80 percent decline above 24 hrs in April. From the beginning regarding this month, bitcoins had been down to around $90, from a high of $266 before the April impact. They were trading near $97 earlier this week, as outlined by mtgox. com. The particular Winklevosses would make Bitcoin investing much easier by permitting smaller-scale buyers to profit, or get rid of, as often the case may be, with no hassle of actually purchasing in addition to storing the electric powered coins. Despite claims connected with protection, Bitcoin storage provides turned out problematic. In 2011, an attack on the Mt. Gox exchange forced it to momentarily close up down and caused the expense of bitcoins to briefly autumn to nearly zero. Given that Bitcoin transactions are all nameless, there is very little chance of discovering the actual culprits if you abruptly find your electronic budget empty. If the Winklevosses acquire regulatory approval, their very own ETF would help shield shareholders from the risk of specific theft. Typically the ETF, however , would perform nothing to address the situation of volatility caused by large-scale thefts elsewhere throughout the Bitcoin market. Whilst Bitcoin will come wrapped within a high-tech veneer, that newest of foreign currencies features a surprising amount in accordance with one of the oldest currencies: gold. Bitcoin's own words, particularly the term "mining, micron illustrates this connection, along with purposefully so. The gold mining process is designed to always be difficult like a control about supply, mimicking the extraction of far more conventional assets from the ground. Faraway from providing a sense associated with security, however, this unsupported claims inside the serve as the word of extreme care. Yellow metal is an investment connected with last resort. It features little inbuilt value. The idea does not generate desire. But because its deliver is finite, it is viewed as being more sturdy when compared with forms of funds that can be printed at will. The challenge with platinum is which it doesn't do anything. Due to the fact gold coins include fallen outside of use, nearly all of the world's platinum now sits in the vaults of central financial institutions and other banking institutions. Since a result, gold features very little connection to the particular real economy. That may appear like a good point when the true economy feels like a intimidating place to be. But as soon as other attractive expenditure options look, gold loses its shine. That is everything we have got seen with the recent is reduced in gold price ranges. Into their push to get Bitcoin to the mainstream, it has the promoters include accepted, and also, in some cases searched for, increased regulation. Last four week period Mt. Gox registered itself for a money services company together with the Treasury Department's Monetary Violations Enforcement Network. It has furthermore increased customer verification procedures. The modifications came in response for you to a March directive from Economic Crimes Enforcement System clarifying the application of its rules to electronic currencies. The Winklevosses' recommended ETF would provide some sort of new level of responsibility. In the long run, however, I be expecting which Bitcoin will lose colour back in the shadows associated with the dark-colored market. People who want a governed, secure currency that they can employ for genuine business deals will pick from one of typically the many various currencies already subsidized by a countrywide federal government equipped with ample solutions, a real-world economy and much more transparency and security and safety than the Bitcoin planet may offer.

Tidy Ductwork Tidy the conduits that run throughout the system. Cleaning involves utilizing specialized devices, like nylon brushes or cable driven brushes, in conjunction with a high-powered vacuum cleaner on the supply and also return area of the system. For fiberglass lined ducts or fiber board air ducts, use soft-bristled brushes. A protected duct need to never ever get wet; if it splashes or musty, do not attempt cleaning due to the fact that changing is the very best option. Return registers typically pull in contaminated air as well as obtains dirty; these can easily be eliminated as well as cleaned up, or simply vacuumed.

Garage Door Repair

"Summer season is here ... warmer temperature levels indicates we're exposing more. More of the garage, that is, as outside activities take spotlight and the garage door gets left open throughout the day.

Yes, I know that the garage isn't the same as your home, but think about how many people can see inside that garage. Does the space look the method you like? Can you find whatever you require? Does everybody in the household understand where to put things back?

Now is the best time to get the garage in order. Some people recommend you take everything out of the garage as the first action to cleaning up out. While this definitely permits a deep cleaning of all the nooks and crannies, it likewise makes the job feel a bit overwhelming and leaves you in the position of having to end up the whole garage in one pass, or leave your possessions in the driveway. I don't suggest de-cluttering a room or a basement by eliminating whatever and putting everything back in, and I do not recommend it for a garage either. By following these easy actions you'll be all set in no time.

1)Recognize: What are the types of items that will be kept in the garage? Examples of ""types"" are sports equipment, lawn/yard tools, hardware, paints/chemicals, garbage and recycling ... you understand. Bear in mind if there are some products that are kept in other places, like the basement or the shed. As constantly, anticipate there to be ""donation"" and ""trash"" piles too.

2)Sort: Starting in one corner, select up the very first thing you see and identify if that's where it belongs. If it isn't put it in one of the designated areas you simply identified. Repeat with the next item. And repeat once again. At this moment, you're just arranging, not stressing over how it will be stored. That comes later on. Simply get things in the right ""community"" in the meantime. As you sort, think about whether you actually require to keep the item. If you have multiples of something, think about contributing a few of them. (I found 10 umbrellas last time I cleaned my garage. Go figure.) Grown out of bicycles and cleats, sports equipment, old tools, and unused materials from previous house improvement projects are all things that can be donated. Just keep what works, has all of its parts, and is in usage presently. If it does not satisfy those criteria, it's probably all set for the garbage.

3)Clean: As quickly as a space is cleared, sweep it out, or utilize a store vacuum if you have one, and do not forget those cobwebs above. Be reasonable with the level of tidiness you're going for - it's a garage after all - however getting the leaves and dirt out will make the garage look orderly and will help keep your home clean, too.

4)Inventory: This is the action where you now determine what you're trying to store. Now that whatever is sorted into those ""communities"" from Step 2, you can quickly see what you're handling and figure out how each should be stored. Do you need access to the product routinely? Items like bike helmets must have a designated spot, where it's simple to get them. Scooters and skateboards also need prepared gain access to in our garage, so they have a prime realty area. Exist any items that are regularly aggravating to you because they're inaccessible? In my home it was sturdy extension cords. They were never where I might quickly get to them, so I avoided any outside task requiring electrical power, which included vacuuming out my car, cutting the hedges, and using the weedwacker. The cables are now kept on an obtainable hook, right near the garage door. Lucky me ... I have many more tasks I can get done now.

Standing so powerful and beautiful, Mont Blanc is the grand monarch of the European Alps. Sitting at an altitude of 4,810m above sea level, this is the highest peak in Europe. And, what makes her so incredible is that she’s accessible to all. You don’t need to be an “alpinist” to reach her as there are cable cars that can help non-climbers get up close to experience her from up high.

Mont Blanc is situated on a 40km mountain range that enters 3 countries – France, Italy and Switzerland with her summit being on the French side. There are glaciers that cover around 100sq km of this mountain, which is why she is known as Mont Blanc, meaning white mountain.

Heading up the Col du Bonhomme mountain pass.

I first visited the town of Chamonix in France back in 2010 and saw the grandeur of Mont Blanc. This is when I fell in love with this area. My husband and I spent a few days exploring, playing as happy tourists taking the cable car up to the Aiguille du Midi, 3842m high, which is the highest I have ever been.

Up here you have the most stunning views overlooking Italy and Switzerland and on a good day, Mont Blanc shows herself proudly.

Our trip

Last year saw us back and ready to experience Mont Blanc in a very different way than we did before. We came back to walk the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB), which is known as one of the greatest long-distance hikes in Europe. The walk is around 170km with 10,000m of ascent and takes you through the three countries of France, Switzerland and Italy.

Our journey had us hiking through some of the most spectacular mountain scenery, forest walks, and deep into the valleys. We stayed in a different village every night and sometimes even in a different country!

  The Col de la Seigne pass crossing Italy to France. 

Hiking the TMB

Many people start in Les Houches in France and travel anti-clockwise. The trail is marked in both directions, so we chose to start in Chamonix and go clockwise. When planning your flight, it’s best to fly into Geneva. This is where there are shuttle buses that can take you through to Les Houches or many of the other villages in the valley. My recommendation is to first check in with the hotel you will be staying at on the first night, as a lot of the hotels provide this service.

The time one would take to hike the TMB is anywhere between 5-12 days, depending on what you choose to do. Some of the paths you will be following are of ancient ones that have been used for many centuries. There are old mule and Shepherd’s pathways, old trade routes, roads of the Roman Soldiers and Celtic tribes. I found it really interesting to learn some of this history as we walked along.

There are several ways you can experience this hike. You can walk it independently or use one of the many companies that offer package deals. These include a self-guided option or a fully guided walk with all luggage transfers and accommodation sorted out for you.

Looking out towards Trient, Switzerland. 

The independent way

Maps

Maps of this walk are easy enough to obtain if you choose to go this way and the waymarking is very clear as it is a very popular and well-used trail.

Accommodation

You will want to book accommodation ahead of time, as there are so many tour groups going through and they have pre-booked a lot of it, so it can be difficult especially during peak season to find anything despite there being an abundance of choice.

Camping options

You can camp and there are many campgrounds along the way. I do recommend checking out the camping laws for each country if you decide to free camp.

Hikers trekking through the Col de la Seigne pass. 

Choosing how many km to walk per day

Be realistic on the kilometres you choose to hike each day as some sections have quite a significant ascent and descent, this can make a 20km day in the mountains a lot harder than in the valleys.

Food and supplies

Do be aware of where you can obtain food as some of the mountain huts don’t stock food and other huts have a limited amount.

Using one of the many tour companies

The benefit of using a tour company is that they have a lot of choice in how you can walk the TMB. You can go with a guide and in a small group while having your luggage transferred. You can hike the TMB self-guided and the company will arrange all baggage transfers and accommodation. They will also provide you with up-to-date information and help along the way.

Higher up towards Col du Bonhomme. 

Best time to walk the TMB

There is a limited season for walking the TMB which does create a bit of traffic along the way. This is a hiking route you cannot do in the winter months due to the harsh weather. It’s only recommended in the warmer seasons from late June to early September. Be aware that Europe have their main holiday time during August/September so expect the trail to be at it’s busiest then.

You must also be aware that the weather in the mountains can be very unpredictable. They can have extreme cold snaps at any time, this can result in snow or blizzards especially on the higher passes. We walked at the end of August, being the height of summer and had a mix of hot and snowy days.

Another important piece of information to be aware of is that the mountain huts on the passes don’t open till mid-June and usually shut down in mid-September.

Trekking high above Les Chapieux – a stopover on the trip.

The terrain

With some lovely valley walks through forests, climbing up high rocky mountain passes, and even scrambling up sections at different points along the way. Be prepared to do it all and expect to get up to heights of 2,665m.

This is not of altitude that can cause sickness for most people, but it does give you a tough physical challenge nonetheless. Be prepared physically before setting out on this hike.

The view over Col du Bonhomme. 

What to pack

To pack for a trip like this where you are heading up over mountain passes, you need to be prepared for all types of weather. Just because it’s summer, there can still be some severe weather at any time. This means that the temperatures drop drastically and fast!

Typically, June to September, the temperature is between 7°C and 24°C. Always check the weather on a regular basis while on this trip and do adhere to any warnings that may be in place. Don’t attempt a mountain pass if you know the weather will be severe. Also, remember the wind chill factor as your body temperature can drop at a fast rate.

If you are using a company to transport your baggage be sure to check the maximum weight allowance as often this is as little as 7kg.

Where you can stash your excess luggage

If you are travelling in Europe for a while other than just the walk, speak to your hotel where you will start and end your walk. Often they are happy to hold luggage that you won’t need on the walk.

Preparing for all kinds of weather

Whether you are carrying a day bag (and having your baggage transported) or carrying all your gear, you must have gear for all types of weather. Be sure to have wet weather gear and extra warm clothes like thermals. You will need to carry water, (up to 2 litres),

There was snow on the ground when we left the Refuge de la Balme.

Packing list for Mont Blanc

A backpack in the size to suit your needs.

Sturdy boots or shoes you plan to trek in. A spare pair of shoes to put on in the evenings.

Hiking poles (you won’t regret taking them)

Water bottles or hydration pack

Map and guidebooks

socks

3 pairs of underwear. I don’t recommend you pack cotton as once it gets wet, it takes a long time to dry which may cause chafing. Also, once wet it loses all thermal properties. You want a fabric that wicks away sweat to keep you comfortable.

2 quick drying hiking shirts

2 zip-off hiking pants. Hiking pants are not only quicker at drying, having the zip-offs allows you the flexibility to wear shorts if it warms up or long pants when the temperature drops.

A lightweight windproof jacket

1 thermal top, and pants (optional)

Rain jacket, rain pants (optional but highly recommended)

2 buff. Tip: a buff also helps protect you from the wind and cold.

Gloves for when the temperature drops, I recommend this as I found mine to be invaluable!

Sarong or Shemagh. This I recommend for so many uses, for example – a scarf, a wrap for after the shower, a towel, a blanket to sit on, make into a bag for the evenings, make many different outfits like a jacket, top and skirt, just to name a few.

Something to sleep in.

If you are camping

Cooker, fuel for cooker (do be aware fuel and matches are not allowed on planes but can be purchased when you arrive).

Food utensils

Head torch

An example of route and towns that you can stay in

Day 1 – Les Houches to La Flegere. Distance – 18km.

Day 2 –La Flegere to Trient. Distance – 19km.

You will find some variants on this day, as well as a chance to ride a cable car and a chairlift. At 14km there is a refuge on the Col de Balme (border of France/Italy). Note that this is an unmanned refuge and there is no food available here.

The sign pointing towards Trient.

Day 3 – Trient to Champex. Distance – 17km.

You will find some variants on this day. One is to take the high and more challenging route over the pass of Fenetre d’Arpette (2665m). Only take it if the weather is good, as in recent years there has been a rock slide. The other choice is to take the Bovine Trail, can be challenging with long ascents and descents but there is a place to stop, relax and have lunch half way. Both are very similar in distance.

Stopping for a rest and some lunch along the Bovine Trail. 

Day 4 – Champex to Ferret. Distance – 18km.

There is a choice to stop at 16km and stay in La Fouly.

The view of the Val Ferret Valley in Switzerland. 

Day 5 – Ferret to Rifugio Bonatti. Distance – 17km.

Another border crossing and high pass at 2537m. There are a few other options to stay at like we did at Rifugio Elena (approximately 10km) or Chalet Val Ferret (approximately 13km).

We stayed at the Rifugio Elena in the Aosta Valley in Italy.

Day 6 – Rifugio Bonatti to Courmayeur. Distance – 12km.

I highly recommend a day here as it is a beautiful town worth exploring.

Day 7 – Courmayeur to Rifugio Elisabetta. Distance – 18km.

This is dorm style accommodation. The next available accommodation is in Les Chapieux, (not a town) and is approximately another 16km. You do have a choice, however, to catch a bus from Courmayeur to Cantine de la Visaille, where camping is available. This is around 14km which makes it an easier day to continue to Les Chapieux.

Trekking uphill from Les Chapieux. 

Day 8 – Rifugio Elisabetta to Refuge de la Croix du Bonhomme Distance – 20km.

This is dorm style accommodation, as well. There is a route variant here, there is also a high pass of Col de la Croix du Bonhomme (2483m), or you can choose the shorter (4km), but higher route over the Col des Fours (2665m). Only take this route if the weather is good. This is also another border crossing from Italy to France.

You can stay overnight at the Rifugio Elisabetta. 

Day 9 – Refuge de la Croix du Bonhomme to Les Contamines. Distance – 13km.

This is virtually downhill but be aware it can be very steep in some sections.

Day 10 – Les Contamines to Les Houches. Distance – 16km.

Again, there is another route variant and cable cars. Check the weather for the choice of which route to take, as the high route will take you close to the glacier de Bionnassay, as well as crossing a swing bridge. Not recommended if the weather is bad.

The final takeaway

To experience the mountains and achieve a walk like this has been a real highlight for me. After completing the journey, I now know my love affair with the European mountains will only continue to grow.
