Customer Reviews
This kit is almost there as far as completeness and capability. It is a great starting point, and to make it complete:
1 - replace the lexan water bottle with a similar sized stainless steel wide mouth bottle, or an empty 1-quart paint can with lid. WHY?
You can boil water in a metal container. This is essential to ensure you have safe drinking water if you don't have sterilizing tablets or a filter.
2 - add wire, the equivalent of a metal hangar would be about right. You can bend it and shape it with the multitool. Use it to hang the stainless steel water bottle over a small fire to boil water and for a thousand other things.
3 - It doesn't say if the flashlight is LED or halogen, or what. Ensure that the flashlight will last at least 48 hours continuously on a single set of batteries. That will allow you several nights. You will almost certainly have to get an LED flashlight to accomplish this.
4 - a candle or two, or firestarter. You _can_ start a fire with damp material, but matches aren't enough, you need more.
Optionally, a couple of hard candies, like peppermints. When you find you're lost at the end of the day, sometimes all it takes to remember your trail more clearly is a little sugar in your blood. It also helps to remember all the other steps you should take when you're lost. Also a couple of tea bags or boullion. If you're cold and wet and lost, stopping, making some tea or hot boullion in the stainless steel bottle can warm you up, rehydrate you, and get you to stop and think, which is probably the most important thing you can do to stay alive help your rescuers find and rescue you.
Optionally add a small roll of duct tape like this Duct Tape Handy Camp Travel 3-pack, a compass (though you should stay put, if possible, makes you easier to find).
So all in all, this is a good start, but lacking in some essentials.
There are lots of survival kits in 1 L bottles out there. This one however stands above the rest. Instead of just 4 or 5 items, this one is packed tight with everything from the necessary matches and poncho, but also has a first aid kit, multi-purpose pliers instead of just a knife, emergency blanket and flashlight. The bottle is also virtually indestructible since it is made of Lexan instead of regular polycarbinate. A good value.
