SHENZHEN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 24, 2026--
Technology accessories brand aulumu is expanding its magnetic ecosystem beyond smartphones with the launch of the B01 Urban Transit Gear Sling Bag and B02 Urban Quick-Access Phone Sling Bag. Developed under the brand’s “Beyond Storage. Redefining Carry.” philosophy, the two models combine quick phone access, modular functionality and equipment-inspired design for commuting, travel and everyday urban movement.

At the centre of both bags is aulumu’s proprietary Detachable Magnetic Metal Compartment. Rather than storing a smartphone inside the main compartment, the system keeps it within immediate reach for navigation, payments, photography and other frequent tasks. The compartment can also be installed or removed as needed, extending the bags’ modular function.
B01 - Built for the Full Day
The B01 is designed for all-day carry. Its expandable capacity increases from 2.5L to 3.5L, providing space for a smartphone, power bank, gadgets, cards, keys and other essentials. Multiple compartments support organisation, while an adjustable shoulder strap allows different carrying positions.
X-Pac functional fabric provides a lightweight, waterproof, wear-resistant and tear-resistant construction. A Fidlock magnetic buckle combines magnetic guidance with mechanical locking, while YKK zippers support reliable everyday use.
B02 - Less to Carry, More Within Reach
The B02 takes a minimalist approach. With an approximately 0.3L capacity, it is intended for essentials such as a phone, passport and cards. Its compact profile suits commuting, shopping, sightseeing, concerts, city walks and short trips, while retaining the same Detachable Magnetic Metal Compartment for immediate phone access.
Together, B01 and B02 extend aulumu’s magnetic design philosophy into urban transit. Compatible magnetic accessories can be incorporated into the carry setup, while the B01 can be paired with the G09 magnetic stand and M10 power bank to create a connected EDC configuration rather than a collection of isolated accessories.
Both bags are designed to integrate into the wearer’s everyday-carry and personal-style setup, combining practical storage, quick access, modularity and a technical urban aesthetic.

PALEMBANG, Indonesia (AP) — Authorities in Indonesia’s South Sumatra, the province with the highest number of wildfire hot spots, turned to spiritual measures on Tuesday as huge blazes in central and western regions scorched wide areas of forests and peatland, creating a choking haze that blanketed some cities in the world’s most populous Muslim-majority country.
The prayer gathering initiative comes as the province faces prolonged dry weather that has heightened the risk of forest and peatland fires.
The latest satellite data from the Environment Ministry showed South Sumatra recorded the highest number of hot spots nationwide with 1,429, followed by West Kalimantan with 1,226 and Central Kalimantan with 811. Forestry Ministry data indicated that nearly 940 square kilometers (363 square miles) were burned in July alone, including over 20 square kilometers (8 square miles) in South Sumatra province.
About 3,000 residents gathered in Palembang, the capital of South Sumatra province, to perform a special Islamic prayer for rain, known as “salat istisqa.” They prayed shoulder to shoulder in the courtyard of the governor’s office as thick smoke shrouded roads, buildings and public facilities, reducing visibility and forcing motorists to drive with their headlights on during the day.
“We have done everything we can and worked closely with all relevant parties,” South Sumatra Gov. Herman Deru said before the prayer. “As people of faith, we are also praying to God to send rain so that life can return to normal.”
He also said the public prayer would complement ongoing firefighting and drought-mitigation measures and serve as a moment for residents to unite in confronting the environmental challenges facing the province.
Emergency services have been battling fires driven by an intensifying El Nino pattern and a prolonged dry season, generating dense smoke that crossed into Malaysia and Brunei, according to the National Disaster Management Agency.
Indonesia is actively intensifying weather-modification operations to help firefighters combat wildfires by inducing rainfall through the dispersal of salt particles into suitable clouds, with 30 aircraft for cloud-seeding and water-bombing operations over Kalimantan, and another 22 helicopters covering Sumatra.
Indonesian police have arrested 72 people suspected of starting some of the forest and peatland fires, while four companies are under investigation for allegedly using fire to clear land at low cost.
Plantation owners and traditional farmers often start fires to clear land for farming, triggering hazardous haze that reduces visibility, disrupts land and air transportation and threatens public health.
Fires are a regular problem during the dry season in Indonesia, and the haze they generate has periodically drawn diplomatic complaints from neighboring countries in Southeast Asia.
