Red Witch Pentavocal Tremolo

There is a lot to be said for simplicity and that is what makes the Red Witch Pentavocal Tremolo a great little pedal, the is a Pentavocal Tremolo pedal is tremolo with 5 different “voices” to play with, you can choose the frequency response by turning the rotary selector to the desired setting. You start with delicate shimmering tones all the way through to deep pulses that make your insides throb.

Polar V650

The V650 gives you everything the M450 has to offer as well as the OpenStreetMap feature and Route guidance allowing you to see exactly where you are on the map whilst on the go. It also boosts a large 2.8” colour touch screen, it is understandably heavier at 122g to the M450’s 50g, it gives you the same accurate altitude data with the built-in barometric pressure sensor, compatible with the free Polar Flow web service and with the Polar Bluetooth Smart heart rate and cycling sensors.

Polar M450

The M450 is a different kettle of fish all together. It is a GPS tracker designed specifically for a bike with an integrated barometer for precise altitude functions, you can track your speed, distance and route, you can set the display to show the data you want, use external Polar Bluetooth® Smart sensors to get information like heart rate, speed, cadence or power.

Polar Loop Crystal

The Polar Crystal Loop is an activity tracker that is also trying to be an elegant piece of jewellery. In my humble option it looks tacky, its silicone wristband has been adorned with delicate Swarovski crystals which clash with the thick strap, it looks tacky and half hearted, aesthetics aside this doesn’t have as much to offer as the A360. You need the Polar H7 heart rate monitor to use the Energy Training, Training Benefit and Heart Rate During Training features but you do get the sleep tracking feature.

Polar A360

Starting off with the A360 this is a wrist-based heart rate monitor that keeps you in the right heart rate zone whether you are circuit training, cycling, jogging or even walking, as well as the heart monitor the A360 also tracks your steps, calories, training and sleep patterns and the Activity Guides give you feedback. You can link the A360 to your phone so it will vibrate on your wrist when you get a message or phone call or to remind you of an important date in your calendar.

Mooer Firefly M6 Flight Case

Lowa San Francisco GTX Travel Shoes

As soon as I unboxed the San Francisco’s I was charmed by the design. The upper is made from Nubuck, a full-grain leather that has been sanded lightly for texture giving it a velvety appearance, minimal seams create a streamline appearance and the open sole construction gives them a stylish unique look. We received the brown with orange soles and laces in the men’s and brown with pink soles and laces for the women’s (also available in green and yellow in men’s and grey and mint for women).

Fitbit Blaze

My first impression of the Blaze was how smooth the packaging was, reminiscent of the newest smart phone it would make a nice gift, however packaging aside the Blaze itself looks equally impressive. The wrist strap feels strong but flexible and the surgical-grade stainless steel buckle and frame give it a stylish look and feel without making it heavy or bulky.
