The First Aid Only 2-Person Tornado Preparedness Backpack gives two people in tornado country a 97-piece emergency kit. After the sirens stop, the air can be thick with dust and the power may be out, and this backpack keeps a couple stocked for up to 3 days.
Safety goggles, a bottle of eyewash and 2 dust-protection face masks address airborne hazards, while a crank flashlight/radio/cell phone charger brings light and updates. Keep it in the car, a basement or a work closet.
Why it works:
- Gear for dusty air: A pair of safety goggles, a 1 oz. eyewash and 2 dust-protection face masks for airborne particles.
- Tape, tools and gloves: Duct tape, a multi-tool, 4 biohazard bags and dotted poly-cotton gloves.
- Rations for a couple: 12 emergency water packets, two 6-packs of food bars and one collapsible 2.5 gallon water pouch. Food and water both carry a 5-year shelf life.
- Shelter and morale: 2 emergency blankets, 2 ponchos and hand warmers for the wait, plus a deck of playing cards, travel tissues, toothbrushes and toothpaste.
- Medical basics: A cold pack, 4 BZK antiseptic towelettes and the personal first aid kit, along with 2 each of aspirin, ibuprofen and extra-strength non-aspirin tablets.
Who it's built for:
For couples in tornado country, it is a backpack to keep in the basement or safe room so both of you are covered when you come up. For employers in tornado-prone regions, it equips a two-person team.
