Tangle of cables, folks? Welcome to Wishlist After Dark, with Penny Pickwell and Sunny! This is the Peak Design Tech Pouch, for the traveler or commuter living that life! Hi, Marty. So, it's a small organizer bag for cables and travel essentials. Oh, I can see it, Penny! They unzip it, and every messy cable's got a home! Sunny, look at this number. 21 pockets, most of them stretchy! Easy, Marty. That's one write-up's count, other shops differ.

Fair! But wait, there's more. Sunny, what happens when it opens? The pockets open wide, like an accordion! And that stiff shell lets it stand on its own. Hold on, it stands up by itself? Read that, folks. I want one! Me too! Here's the rundown, Marty. It's water-resistant, and it fits a Nintendo Switch with the Joy-Cons detached! Fine print. It's about six by nine and a half by four inches, and Peak Design also sells a Small, so check which one you're getting.

Penny, does it squish down in a bag? Nope, Sunny. Buyers say that shell doesn't compress much, and Shotkit calls it bulky even when empty. There's one main zipper, and don't dunk it. But Penny, do people love it? They do. On Zappos, 89 percent of 290 reviews are five stars. Amazon's rating, we couldn't confirm. Told you! I'm at eight point three, because every cable gets a spot. I say eight point seven!

That stand up trick got me. Seven point seven for me, it's bulky. The After Dark Score's eight point two out of ten, number seven of 14 on our gadgets board. Buy it if you carry cables, skip it if you pack light. The link's on our site and in the description, sources too. See you next time, folks!
