Sized for three, the Guardian 3 Person Necessity Survival Kit is a family emergency kit for a parent and two kids, a couple and a child, or three roommates. Every person gets a set of their own, from a 3,600-calorie food bar and 1-liter hydration bag to a blanket, poncho and warmer, so no one has to share theirs when the lights go out.
A single AM/FM radio, flashlight and 44-piece first aid kit serve the group, and every bag weighs 16 lb.
Why it works:
- A full ration set for each of three: Every member of the household has food and water set aside: 3 food bars, eighteen 4 oz water pouches and three 1-liter hydration bags. Bars and pouches alike carry a 5-year shelf life and are meant to provide nutrition for 72 hours.
- Water for the whole group, not just the pouches: Thirty purification tablets, each good for 1 liter, let you treat extra water once the pouches are used up.
- Nobody waits for a blanket: Three emergency blankets, three emergency ponchos and three hand/body warmers mean each person stays covered at the same time.
- Shared tools the household passes around: One of each keeps the kit compact: a 52-card deck of survival playing cards, a 5-in-1 whistle, a flint starter, an AM/FM radio (batteries included) and a hand rechargeable flashlight (never needs batteries).
- Hygiene for three, first aid for all: A 44-piece first aid kit serves everyone, backed by 27 wet wipes, 3 packs of pocket tissues and 9 disposable face masks.
Who it's built for:
For a small family, it is a closet-ready kit with a personal set of supplies for each of three people. For offices, field teams and agencies, it outfits a crew of three from one carrier.
