Also have high/low/off modes and adjustable head straps. Every dang one of them comes with (3) “AAA” batteries, because we think you’re special.

Veterans will know this as an entrenching tool, but to everyone else it's a folding camp shovel. Our hardened steel version is 22-1/2" long when open, folds to a measly 9-1/2", and weighs just over 2-1/2 lbs. Blade is 8-1/4" long x 6" wide, serrated on one side. Fits into the light canvas pouch, which you can carry on your belt because you never know when you'll need to dig a hole.

It’s either the world’s smallest shop vac or the only car vacuum on the planet that will suck up water. Handy, that. Our 7-1/2" x 9" portable wet-dry vacuum has an 9-foot cord with a 12V cigarette lighter/accessory plug, a 3-foot-plus flexible hose, large brush, and crevice cleaner. Great for cars, boats, RV's or camping. Bonus: it reverses and has a nozzle to blow up air mattresses and the like.

Super lightweight red nylon day pack, perfect for packing on vacation or for regular kiddie use. Measures 17” x 11” x 5-1/4” when unfurled with 30” adjustable straps. Has an integral carrying pouch on the inside top, so it can get completely inside itself (which is more than we can do) into a neat 5-1/2” square bundle. Zippered top closure.

Tube tents are tubes in the sense that they're one piece, with floors, and can be used as shelters, ground cover or or blankets in emergencies or disasters. This one is bright orange nylon with an aluminized coating on the inside for insulation. Measures 82" x 36". Includes 23 feet of nylon rope for hanging between trees or posts and (4) 9" zinc-plated steel stakes.

This storage pouch, in safety-vest-chartreuse, is 9” x 2” x 2” with a 2-step zip-lock and hook-n-loop water-resistant seal. Good for walking in the rain, biking, sailing and triathlete-ing with valuables, either strapped around your waist with the adjustable elastic belt and molle buckle or not. The pouch is gusseted, which means it’ll also open to 4” wide—perfect for a cell phone.

Just how big are your hips? Big enough to handle our 64-oz hip flask? Measures 11-1/2" tall x 6-7/8" wide in the traditional curve x 1-5/8" thick. Holds a party-ready half-gallon, which is 1.89 liters which would be, yes, bigger than those 1.5 liter bottles. In surgical stainless steel with the all-important attached screw cap that won't get lost. Brushed-finish sides, polished top and cap. Suitable for engraving as an extra-special award item.

Our jumbo emergency fire starter is 4" long with a 2-3/4" long x 5/16" dia flint with a handle, on a wrist strap with an attached 2-3/4" long steel striker. Guaranteed never to run out of fuel.

No, no, no--you can’t get a bracelet on a mosquito, but you can put this coiled plastic band around your own wrist and let the all-natural geraniol, lemongrass, citronella oils and zinc derivatives in it keep the critters away for up to 250 hours after you break the seal. Non-toxic, keep it sealed between wearings, and say goodbye to bug bites.

Nifty device that takes maxi air and squeezes it down into a mini condition. The device is roughly 6-1/2"" long x 6" tall x 4" wide. It has a 10 ft. cord that plugs into an auto lighter socket: i.e. it runs on 12VDC @ 10 amps. Air output is via a 12" hose with a variety of valve adapters for tires, soccer balls, rubber rafts, and just dusting off the environment. Complete with a 0-250 psi gauge. Which should be plenty of pressure to explode a weak bike tire or flimsy beach ball, so please be careful!

Go ahead. If you've got your glow-in-the-dark compass with you, you can find your way back without having to grope around trying to feel the moss on the north side of the trees. In brass, 2" dia x 1/2" thick, with a bezel with 2-degree increments and a 13/16" dia hook on top.

Four carabiners, no waiting. These are for keys and stuff, not for hanging around Mt. Everest. We'll pick a quartet of 2-3/4" x 1-3/8" carabiners in assorted vibrant anodized-aluminum colors, including black and polished silver. They open to a max of 5/8" and each has a complimentary 7/8" slip-ring at absolutely no extra charge.

This well-made plastic siren/whistle, a touch over 3/4" in diameter and a similar touch under 2" long, has a perforated metal disk that rotates in response to a silent blast from the perpetrator's lungs. This creates a high-pitched, loud and certainly distinctive siren-sound that picks up pitch in relation to the air velocity, sustains it as long as your wind holds out, and winds down quickly thereafter. A fine way to signal your arrival or departure. Probably not loud enough to collect the clan at the beach, but loud enough to get their attention in the classroom! The size makes it hard, but not impossible, to swallow, so please use care in teaching youngsters to sound like a miniature air raid siren.

In nylon digital camo, this military radio bag measures 11" x 12" x 6" with adjustable straps on the side panels to pull them in, another to close the top, and a pair of female molle buckles to attach it to something else. Sew it all together, add a strap and you’ve got a great carry-all. Note openings at bottom corners. For you collectors, it’s marked  "APB03 RADIO POUCH SPM1C1-09-F-C002 8465015158636 F190686393 TAMCN NO. C54402F"

Have a blast at the family picnic or your next traffic jam -- or when boating, coaching the soccer team, or calling the kids for dinner. This lightweight megaphone is only 8-1/2" long, with a 5-1/2" dia horn and a fold-down handle, but its 5-watt power output lets you project up to 165 yards. Volume control, on/off switch, voice/siren option, hi-impact ABS body that's shock and weather resistant. Use the nylon strap to hang it from your wrist or around your neck. Uses (4) "C" batteries (not included).

It will be if you buy this bright-as-a-Phi-Beta-Kappa COB LED 3W flashlight, with a bonus red laser. Measures a mere 4-3/4" x 1-1/8" dia and comes with (3) “AAA” batteries inside, where they belong. In a knurled aluminum body of a color that we’ll pick for you (gray, black, red or blue) because who cares what color a flashlight is. (Note: flashlight and pointer can't be on at the same time.)

What a bright idea! Our emergency blanket is reflective silver Mylar on both sides. Measures 68" long x 23" wide x a heat-sealing 1/16" thick. Comes with attached straps to roll it up and store it, plus a little carabiner to clip it to a pack. Keep it in the car and it might save your life. Or use it as a slim 21st century bedspread if you have a stainless steel bedroom.

Mini bells for bikes, not bells for mini-bikes, although why not? These smaller bells make the traditional ding! when you pull the lever. Steel, with plastic thumb-pulls and mounting rings that open to 7/8” dia. Put one on your handlebars, or adjust the size and wear it as a ring, so people will get out of your way when you’re on foot. We’ll pick one in red, green, blue or yellow.
