This is a great basic or starter emergency survival bag kit. I bought this same exact one from on Woot maybe 5 years ago. I added a lot of my own items to the kit such as more food items (also with 25 year shelf life), more water, USB power banks, better flashlights, a camp pillow, 2 person emergency blanket bag, paracord, a rechargeable AM/FM/shortwave radio with extra rechargeable batteries and USB charger for them, portable hand chainsaw, silverware kit, folding shovel, more and better first-aid items, light sticks, and other things. I also upgraded to a different and better more durable military style backpack. All in all my kit weighs about 30-40 lbs. But it all started from this kit for sale here, highly recommend even if you’re going to build it out like I did when I got it.
