Survival Gadget Guide
Samantha Peters
This Guest Post is written by Samantha Peters, who is a blogger that enjoys writing about preparedness tips for natural disasters and other emergency situations. Such preparedness includes having the critical survival gadgets written about in this article on hand and easily accessible at all times. ________________________________________________________ Most disasters are only disastrous because the people caught up in them are unprepared. Whether it’s a temporary power outage, a dangerous storm or a truly catastrophic event, having the tools to keep yourself safe and comfortable could mean the difference between life and death. These gadgets may be available at your local sporting goods store and generally don’t cost too much, but your best bet will be to find them at an online business. Water Filtration System You can live for weeks without food, but a lack of water can lead to death within days. Water in a disaster will likely be contaminated with harmful bacteria or chemicals, which makes a water filtration system one of the most valuable survival tools in your arsenal. Solar Charger Going without electricity doesn’t mean your electronics have to be useless. A portable solar charger collects the sun’s energy and uses it to power a device or charge its battery. Solar chargers can be as small as a wristband or as big as a car, but many of the smaller ones now come with universal adapters to ensure that nearly any gadget can be plugged in and ready to go in no time. Portable Stove Water may be more important than food, but going hungry isn’t much fun either. Having a portable stove can help you cook up anything that will spoil in a powerless fridge, or heat up your stores of canned goods. Most stoves run on gas, so be sure to have an extra tank waiting to be used. Radio Radios are the easiest method of communicating and getting updates during a disaster. Rather than trying to power a television and get a signal, you can simply pop in a battery’s radio and start hunting for a broadcast. With a radio, you can learn the severity of any situation, the prognosis for relief and any further safety instructions that could save your life. Generator A generator is something of a luxury item during a power outage. It’s noisy and consumes fuel, but after a few days getting the lights back on is more than worth it. Smaller, portable generators can also be used to power major appliances without using as much gasoline. When disaster strikes, there are only two types of people: the prepared and the unprepared. Don’t be one of the casualties on the next day’s news, or subject yourself to a week in the dark while your food supply dwindles. Grab your best credit cards to buy essentials, make yourself a plan, and start planning for your survival today.

I have a generator. I guess our electric is computurized as power goes off during small wind,snow storms etc. if it gets too bad solar charger will not be needed. No cell tower poer.
I could have sworn that the author of this article was about to say… in a disaster, there are only 2 kinds of people: the prepared and the dead. Must be getting cynical in my old age.
That would depend on the disaster. Goodness almighty lots of media hype about tornados last night almost slept in basement. Just a small thunder storm and power off 11p.
The stupid MSM are worried about the wrong things!!! How about what is actually happening in Europe, rather than they are having some financial problems. I recommend not watching the MSM bc they are covering Europe just like they covered the Iraq and Afghan wars.
My husband has gone over 3 times and the things he tells me sure don’t make the news, just like Europe right now. The UK is going to be having power failures this week, where’s that on the news???
The most important thing was not on the list. Firearms and security devices. Without a way to protect yourself from preditors you will be.a.victim.
And by “predators” you can change that to “blacks” and they almost operate immune to the law now, imagine how it will be in another year! or another 4 years of Obama. ARM UP WHITE PEOPLE. And to Prepared Soccer Mom, you are absolutely correct in that there are things going on over here that will never hit the MSM, HELL!! there are things going on in America that you will never know about such as the horrible increase of brutal black on white attacks happening every day in any city where the black population is greater than 1 (one) and now the concerted effort to get rid of Castle Laws (i.e. self defense laws)making the common prey of the blacks (Whites) unable to defend themselves. We are indeed living in interesting times
F U skip! I see more crazy ass white people than black and i’ve talked to a few that said they won’t prepare but will take what they want from someone else. So keep your dumb ass racist comments to yourself! PIG
