portable power for tent camping image
Rambo95
im making a survival kit that i can keep in my car but am not sure what else to add, if anyone has any ideas can you tell me please?
this is my survival kit so
*three man tent
*portable barbeque/wood burner
*high powered torch
*a survival knife
*flint
*thermal blanket
*sleeping bag
*2 ordinary blankets
*4 days worth of tinned food
*a water canteen
*stainless steel bowl the military use.
*waterproof tarpaulin
this is what i believe i would need to survive in the wilderness if something happened. the portable barbecue is quite easy to carry and can be packed away and stuff but i know i probably wont need it because i can make a fire without one but i thought i could always use it if i went on a camping trip also. does anyone else have any additions for my list?
Answer
An extra change of clothes, Medications (if you take any) a spare set of corrective lenses if you wear them. A weapon that can be used to hunt for long-term food. Don't knock a good BB gun; they will bring down birds and small animals (i.e. squirrels ect..) if you do not have a firearm. Bow and arrows can be used for larger animals. No FFL required. And while it may sound odd, I keep a deck of cards in my pack incase you get rained in and are dying of boredom.

What can you do to protect yourself from an earthquake?

Answer
Emergency supplies:
* One gallon of water per person for at least three days. Water purification tablets can also be useful.
* Enough non-perishable food for three days. Canned foods last the longest, but be sure you have a can opener. Nutrition bars, beef jerky and dried fruits are also good energy-providers.
* Flashlight and portable radio with batteries. Keep spare batteries on hand for easy replacement.
* Cooking equipment, such as a barbecue or camping stove.
* A first-aid kit and fire extinguisher.
* Food and water for pets.
* Blankets and extra clothing.
* Toilet tissue, diapers and other personal hygiene products. Use a heavy-duty plastic bag for disposal.
* Tent and sleeping bag.
* Tools. Wrenches, axes, hammers, crowbars and rope might come in handy for tasks such as shutting off gas and water.
Home Preparation
* Secure heavy wall hangings by anchoring them into studs, not just the wall. Never put anything heavy over your bed.
* Bookshelves should also be secured to walls, using L-shaped braces. Small guardrails can be attached to prevent items from sliding off in an earthquake. Try not to put the heaviest objects on the highest shelves.
* Put latches on cupboards and cabinets to keep them shut. Small pieces of adhesives or putty can help keep collectibles in place.
* Lights and hanging plants should be anchored into the ceiling's wood beams, not just through plastic or panels.
* Brace your free-standing water heater using steel plumber's tape.
* Know where your gas meter and shut-off valve are. Have an adjustable wrench handy for turning it off. You can also have an automatic shut-off valve installed.
* Check your home's foundation to see if the wood is secured to the concrete. Older homes may need to be retrofitted.
During an Earthquake:
Stay inside
DROP, COVER, AND HOLD ON! Move only a few steps to a nearby safe place. Take cover under and hold onto a piece of heavy furniture or stand against an inside wall. Stay indoors until the shaking stops and you're sure it's safe to exit. Stay away from windows and doors.
Never take an elevator
If you are in bed, hold on, stay there, protect your head with a pillow.
Outdoors
Find a clear spot away from buildings, trees, and power lines.
Drop to the ground until the shaking stops.
In A Car
Slow down and drive to a clear place (as described above).
Turn on emergency flashers on and slow to a stop. Do not stop on overpasses, underpasses, or bridges. Be careful of overhead hazards such as power lines or falling building debris.
Turn off the ignition and set the parking brake.
Stay inside the car until the shaking stops.
