MINI URBAN EDC 2022

This is my take on the Altoids tin mini EDC. I have a regular size one that I've also done on my channel and Im happy to say I have this one now. This is every thing you need for a survival situation. Its not your average emergency kit. All of the links are listed in a blog post and are found on Amazon. Let me know if I miss one.

I love seeing other women do EDC’s like this that are functional and geared towards survival, not enough of us on youtube, thanks for sharing!! a I have a premade kit from Survive Outdoors Longer that I keep in my purse and then I have a kit that I put together myself in a small pelican case that I keep under the driver seat of my car. A small suggestion that I would add is to consider maybe sunscreen and a plastic pouch that is durable enough to hold one liter of water, they make them folded up so they can slide in somewhere easily. That way you have something to hold your purified water in just in case you don’t have a bottle.

[@lalee47]

Or if you don’t sell the pre made kits, would you make a printable list with links? You are brilliant!! And so organized!

[@wendyvancamp1738]

I always enjoy seeing how my fellow women develop their EDC. I used to use a Maxpedition pouch for my EDC kit, but when I pulled it out I would get stares. I discovered a Purple Kipling Coin Pouch many years ago and shifted my gear into that and never looked back. I can put the case on a resturant table and no one looks twice at it. I don't carry as much as you, but I have the basics: knife, light, screwdriver, pen. I also carry a jeweler's loop, folding scisorrs, and a tape measure. We have the same flashlight, BTW. :)

[@AlwaysLornaMarie]

That’s awesome I love that you carry an EDC as well. Thanks for sharing Wendy! ❤️🥰

[@cheryldekoevend6626]

Thank you for doing an update and showing how to pack it in a cosmetic pouch rather than an Altoids tin or a EDC pouch. More women will appreciate this option.

[@MsThumper16]

I love this. You are my kind of people! I consistently get asked why I carry as much as I do, even get some chuckles from time to time. But I am never in need of things and I love that feeling. The other day my hubby needed a knife while we were out; gave him my multi tool. Was at a breakfast with girlfriends and they needed scissors, guess who could help. Today I was running late, but I had what I needed on me to do a semi decent makeup look. Area on my son’s shoe came apart, I had Krazy glue to fix it. I love being ready for anything!

[@madkins007]

Hi! 65M EDC and gadget nerd. I love your channel and ideas- I always leave them with a bunch of new ideas! I love the small clear bags- stealing that idea for sure! It is also great to see someone else use the Wisp toothbrushes in their kit. If I were making a bag like this, I would replace the ball-style compass with a button compass (smaller, generally more stable). Maybe the water purification tablets with P&G packets which help settle sediments as well. Ibuprophen works better as a general purpose pain reliever for most people than Tylenol. Fire starting- the SparkLite tool is a lot smaller than the one in your kit and comes with more tinders, and if you cut the ends off the matches you could seal the bag for better water resistance. That would save me a bit of space and weight. You mentioned the chain, and the mini-paracord. You could replace the chain with a length of paracord tied into an interesting lanyard to replace the chain and provide some cordage as well.The mini-cord does not come in as many fun colors, but there are a few available. Another option would be to use Kevlar cord instead of paracord. This is a really strong thick thread that can be used for sewing, shoe lace replacement, tied to a magnet to fish things out, etc. I have a couple large-eye needles pre-threaded with a few feet of Kevlar cord, and a small 'hank' of about 15' with a piece of heat shrink tubing to hold it together but it would also fit nicely in one of the small clear bags. Screwdriver- I might look for something smaller. I have a tiny eyeglass repair tool with a reversable head (not sure where I got it). I wrap my duct tape around a piece of clamshell plastic packaging I cut to a size to fit my bag (usually a credit card size or so- nice and flat!) Flashlights. I go back and forth with myself on this. I tend to find my rechargeable flashlights dead in my kits, so I have gone to some of the inexpensive, bright, and light AAA flashlights like the Lumnitop EDC01. (I TRY to standardize all my gear to AAA batteries and USB-C cords.) My small gear bag also has a small phone charger pack (mine is the CLUTCH credit card version, smallest I have found so far) and a small charger cord (I like the InStream smaller version without USB-C on both ends but there are a lot of good ones out there.) I also tucked in a few eyeglass towelettes for my glasses and screens. I found a four-pack of small colorful aluminum tube-style whistles in AliExpress for just a couple bucks. They weigh nothing and take virtually no space (especially if you replace the somewhat oversized rings with small rings or a loop of cord) and are nice and LOUD. I put them everywhere and taught my kids the simple Whistle Code (easy to find online) for everyone's safety. You touched on a lot of points I wish more people talked about- making it your own, the importance of how to pack it, etc. You mentioned restocking and my tip for that is to keep your trash. Whenever you use a consumable item, tuck the wrapper or packaging in a pocket or something to remind you to restock it as soon as you get home. Sorry for the missive, and THANK YOU

[@Awesomewonder]

Woah, you are a nerd. Ive been meaning to make an edc too and stumbled upon this video and your comment. Will really consider your suggestions. Thanks.

[@arod1784]

Great suggestion for honey as EDC. "Pick me ups" are rarely addressed, especially among men, for practical carry. But honey packs are easily accessible and can energize more than any other tool in an emergency. Also to pair with that, the water purification tabs make a lot of sense in an emergency. Thanks for your contribution to the EDC community!

[@keyonnamonaee]

Your videos are so helpful! We went to the beach for the first time & let’s just say I didn’t get eye drops like you said & I needed them bad! Definitely never second guessing 😭

[@annelisabethcom]

I don't have all that stuff, but I've been into pouches etc for a long time. I have a basket full that I root through to find just the right one. My current pouch for necessities (not emergency stuff) is a small mesh pouch from Daiso. Loved the look of your pouch, but I lean more towards tools, including a small Knipex Cobra, so I lean more towards Maxpedition or Vanquest EDC. I just sometimes wish there was more room for smaller, bulkier things. So both a pouch and a folder might be ideal. I will file your blog post away and reference for ideas for emergency pouch stuff.

[@abail02]

I saw a really great idea for your lighter. They cut a small piece of glue stick and you can burn the end and glue together. Glue stick glue works better for uneven surfaces...etc. than super glue and since you already carry a lighter it wouldnt take up that much more space. Great little EDC pack.

[@VenisPonce]

Perfection 👌

[@annelisabethcom]

BTW, one of my all time favorite pouches is the Kipling Kari. But it's out of production and stock. The Creativity pouches and Iaka are also good. Lightweight and nylon. Nylon pen pouches are also good, depending on the material. I like pouches that feel good when I touch them. Also, I really like thick leather zippered card pouches. Those are really good for storing adapters for phone and computer. And neoprene for power banks and patch cables if possible. Not super easy to find anymore, but I have a bunch from the time they sold pouches like that for mini harddrives. These days they are all Eva hard cases instead. They don't mold, so not as easy to use for anything.

I have a question….do you carry the mini edc just when you have a smaller purse or all the time in your daily purse. When do you carry around the bigger edc that you have in your thirty one organizer. Just going to work and home daily would the mini be better? I am trying to plan better. I love all of your videos.

[@avajones7791]

Where did you get the small pouches that the tums were in?

[@donaldcarr8766]

Like the pouch you have found, as I can see how it might appeal to women as preferred carry. I would consider reducing some of the content e.g. the new victorinox swiss card nail care provides a lot of your items in a smaller size. Also hair tie can double as elastic band.

[@antotombari710]

Hi! I really like your EDC. But for me: - the plastic pouch are more bulky than a normal zipploc bag. And to do it more flat, because you don't use it all days. Take out the air and is more compact. And without the closure of the zipploc. (AverageZoeBlogs did something like that) - the compass is more big that a typical button compass. - for cordage, you can use dental floss. They can support like 4 kilograms. - a little whistle it's very important too. - if you like, add a square of tin foil.

[@RJay207]

Respect. I'm happy to see women in this space, as it's dominated by men. And not only are you a woman, but you're obviously into fashion, and your nails are killer. This is just BEAUTIFUL representation that EDC can be for ANYONE. And that is a legit EDC kit. I hadn't even thought of sugar/honey. That's a brilliant addition, and one I haven't really seen in other videos. So, thank you for that! If I may offer a couple of suggestions... If you want to be prepared for anything, I suggest swapping out that pen for sometime with a pressurized ink cartridge (eg Fisher Bullet Space Pen). The pressurized cartridge means you can right in any condition/extreme temperatures/under water/space... Whatever. Along with that, fold up a small sheet of water proof paper (eg RiteInTheRain) so your pen can have something to write on. Also, I don't know where you live, but you say you hike. I live in Maine. Ticks are a real concern here, especially when hiking. So, I also carry a "ProTick Remedy", which is a tick remover, basically flat and weightless, and smaller than your tweezers. Just a couple of ideas for an already RIDICULOUSLY good EDC build. Thank you for sharing! Cheers! ❤️

[@annelisabethcom]

Most label makers have a selection of papers. I don't know which one she has. I prefer white and black text for my old Brother. My new one has clear with black text as an option. Probably not the same she uses.

[@thelittleatari9664]

@@annelisabethcom thankyou, I had a feeling that was the case. Would be good to know which one she has as well.

[@annelisabethcom]

@@thelittleatari9664 I have 3 different ones. 2 Brother. Different generations. I've ceded the old one to my mom. It has a built in keyboard. That's a good choice for elderly people who want to make labels directly. But the old one didn't have an option for wider label tape, and only one line of text. So the next Brother had wider labels, more lines of text if necessary, no keyboard and app to control. The last one has custom labels of a lot of types, and is probably more for business owners who need to label their wares. I will find the name of it. My point is that many label makers probably support the clear label tape, but that's not all we need to look at.

[@annelisabethcom]

@@thelittleatari9664 My last one is Niimbot B21. Probably more an Asian thing, but it might be available in the West too. I thought the labels would be more resistant to wear and water, but some of mine (jar of face cream used a lot) the text wore away. So maybe think about ways to protect the label on high use items.
