I would add a can opener, hand sanitizer or sanitizing wipes and maybe one of the cooling towels. The most valuable reminder of this video is having everything you need bundled together. I have many of those things but they are scattered around mostly with like items and not as a kit.

@KaylynnStrain 7 дней назад

put glow tape or reflectyive tape on the buckets for easy locating at night. maybe put glow sticks in them which will be good fun for kids

@sda4jesus1 6 дней назад

Also consider getting O-ring sealed lids for the buckets: makes for an emergency toilet if the water's out for a long spell.

@user-xn9jb1kl8f 7 дней назад

the advice of having a fan is very good .. here in Singapore .. being cold is never an issue .. the heat can be very disturbing .. thank you sir.

@OPSTuT 7 дней назад

If I could suggest a swap out. I would swap the emergency radio for baofeng. The baofeng will give you a police scanner. The bow thing will also give you AM/FM radio. The bow thing would also give you a way to communicate.

@EverydayTacticalVids 7 дней назад

Nice. Love learning more about these things.

@br2080 7 дней назад

A video on using a baofeng would be very helpful

@andresjackson9367 7 дней назад

I've read a lot of the comments and they're all good ideas butt whether we're talking about a container or buckets or backpacks full of gear, I think it is a good idea for everyone in the family or in the house to have their own small kit and to be responsible for it. I see those little segments on news programs where they get a small container and they put one of everything in it but stupidly they don't think about the fact that in a family everybody is not going to sit next to each other or sleep next to each other all night long. Every person needs some kind of a light and if kids have their own kit then there'll be more familiar with the concept of prepping

@georgejones8784 6 дней назад

-All those candles... And nothing to light them with. A lighter in each bucket would be helpful. -Rechargeable lithium batteries (the power banks, flashlights, etc) don't really like sitting unused. Check them regularly, and top them off - maybe twice a year, when you change your smoke alarm batteries, recharge anything that is rechargeable. It's also a good time to check those packages of alkaline batteries for leaky ones. -rechargeable NiMH batteries (the low self-discharge type) are good for short term use, and best of all, they don't leak. Ones like Eneloop are rated to hold most of their charge (80%?) over a year. Top them off twice a year. I went through a 3 day blackout and realized a dozen rechargeables would have lasted weeks.

@charlessalmond7076 6 дней назад

I bought a 10 dollar battery bank at the check out at Walmart in 2016. My first. It said in the instructions never store long term full. I've kept mine stored at 95-98% since I've had it. I've never seen the percentage drop between uses.

@georgejones8784 6 дней назад

@@charlessalmond7076 I forget the exact advice on lithiums. I think the optimal long term storage capacity was supposed to be in the 65% range. They're supposed to lose something like 2-4% of their total capacity per year, but obviously, that depends on storage conditions, charge quality, and construction/material quality. Keep an eye on it while charging, and make sure to not let it sit charging once it's hit 100%. That's generally a dangerous time for lithium fires. Of course, they can light off anytime, so always be careful with them.

@Ashton.everydaycarry 7 дней назад

Nicely organized and set up! I personally would not use bleach when you can buy pretty compact water filters/purifiers. I have one from katadyn that is a 3 liter collapsible bottle with the filter built into the nozzle. Thanks for the great video!

Cheers for the updates mate. We have a wood fire pizza oven & a camping gas stove. It came useful for all the blackouts we've had the last few years. Even cook meals for our surrounding neighbours too. Thanks ETV from Australia.

@mingopartners5948 2 дня назад

Consider adding a small or medium size camp stove, if you have grill already - make sure you extra charcoal or propane on hand

@user-mi6xi6iy9r 3 дня назад

Another good thing is a rechargeable lighter. There are solar coolers too. Isn’t in my budget yet but it’s on my list

@MosaicHomestead 5 дней назад

That's a good kit for short term power outages, I would make some changes to make it a bit more long term. I would change the power aid and Gatorade for water and add Gatorade drink mix packets, this gives you more water options, I would replace bleach liquid to pool shock, pool shock doesn't loose potency concentration, I would add a decent portable water filter, I would exchange your fan to a O2cool fan with a modified 12v outlet cable to save on portable battery energy consumption, I survived the longest power outage in US history, So I do have a bit of experience on the topic, right now we are dodging a bullet with Beryl.

Great video!!! Another suggestion is to have a car charger for your generator. I do have a solar panel for my generator, but a car charger might be helpful, too.

@EverydayTacticalVids 6 дней назад

Nice ideas! 💡

@JacobDrosdick 7 дней назад

Great ideas here. One thing I would add is a portable camping stove, and I don't mean the tiny backpacking ones. I mean something like a Coleman camping stove and plenty of extra fuel to go with it. Obviously you won't be able to fit that in a bucket system like this but it is something good to have on standby

@EverydayTacticalVids 7 дней назад

That's a great idea!

@markcoraa 7 дней назад

Good ideas. I've got most of those in my own kit. One additional thing that I have is a small, portable solar generator and a small one hundred watt panel. Like you, I don't depend on a small one hundred watt panel, but the generator it could come in very handy. And if I can get enough electricity to see me through 3-4 days, I think I'm golden.

@cameraman763 6 дней назад

Thanks. The one thing for all to remember is your requirements to add other items is different for everyone. A 5 gallon bucket, trash bags, kitty litter, sanitizer, poopari. To make a good emergency toilet. Camping stove or gas/charcoal grill to heat food if you dont have access to other hear sources.

@jerrysimms4717 7 дней назад

Water for consumption should be in food grade plastic containers . Went through many prolonged power outages, longest 11 days due to an ice storm , but a gas stove and water heater made it tolerable ( didn’t prep at that point ) . Now we have a generator , 4 five gallon cans of gas that gets rotated through my truck to stay fresh , power bank, led lanterns.

@allenwurl6245 6 дней назад

I store my rice in 1 L “Smart Water Bottles” the rice will last longer and the smart water bottle works perfectly with my “Sawer” water filter.

@sdsi68 6 дней назад

I would add some kind of cooking kit, not everyone uses gas to cook with, you know those butane burners, I have a couple of folding ones that fold up into a small box, smaller than a milk carton so it's very portable, I have a cylinder one made by Snow Peak and the box one I got from Amazon for under $50 🤙🤙🤙

@brockpaperscissors7003 2 дня назад

Bleach tablets work a little bit better they are less expensive per volume, they have a longer shelf life, and they aren't corrosive to the container they placed in. You just need to make sure they are fit for human consumption.

@MasterK9Trainer 6 дней назад

I have a good answer for you. Now if you have nowhere all your stuff is that's great but a lot of people don't plan for blackouts or any type of weather emergency. Now when the power goes out it's very hard to go around looking for stuff unless you think to have a flashlight that you keep in your pockets all the time. I can tell you that if you were to go to 30 different houses it's possible that not one of those homes has one person in the house that has a flashlight ready to go at any moment. I have known people who will ask for a flashlight all the time but don't have the good sense to go and buy a couple

@MasterK9Trainer 6 дней назад

It's a fair question but the reason that some people really need to put stuff in a container is because otherwise they wouldn't remember where to find things and besides the idea of putting your supplies in your equipment and containers so that you have everything you need in an emergency. I have met people and I know people currently that do not think to have a good pocket knife or a fixed blade or even think to have a small flashlight that can keep in their pocket.
