Urban EDC Backpack (v3.0) by TheUrbanPrepper (2/2)

[@Justme-ok3bf]

I would add socks to the clothing module, nothing worse that wet feet on abad weather day! I always carry some

[@Docprepper]

Medic here: definitely don't use the tampon for a bullet wound. Tampons are designed to absorb blood, yes, but not the volume involved with a bullet wound. They also break up quite often when saturated. That's why females swap them so often. You definitely don't want pieces of absorbent material inside of a wound. Debridement of an internal wound is not easy and leaves material conducive of infection... Good for females, but not for bullet wounds... If a patient has a bullet wound, or two or three or four or … you immediately protect yourself with nitrile gloves, face mask, and eye protection (splatter into the eyes = pathogen transfer.) immediately apply pressure to the wound(s) and elevate the wound. If the wound is on the trunk and direct pressure does not stop the bleeding (even with small calibers such as the 22 and 380, direct pressure rarely stops bleeding from a bullet wound) you should apply a hemostatic dressing INTO the wound and onto the wound. This hurts the pt. You're stuffing a hemostatic dressing into the wound. You need to mentally prepare the pt for this. Pretty much say "this is gonna hurt, but it's gonna help OK." Don't forget pressure. Hemostatic dressings laid on top of a wound offer no aid. Press it into the wound and continuously apply direct pressure. If the wound is on an extremely (arm, leg, hand, foot) and direct pressure doesn't stop the bleeding, you can apply a tourniquet ABOVE the wound. I've seen a few cases where bystanders applied the tourniquet below the wound... Always apply above... the tourniquet or hemostatic dressing should stop the bleeding. They can be used together on extremities. Once bleeding has been controlled, you absolutely have to treat and manage shock. The pt is susceptible to hypovolemic shock when massive blood loss occurs. You need to keep the pt breathing adequately and warm. Studies have shown that bending the knees offers no advantage to treating shock. You can do that if you wish, but know it is unnecessary and may put the pt in an uncomfortable position. You absolutely must be prepared to offer CPR in the event of a gunshot wound. Shock usually leads to cardiac arrest due to the hypoperfusion of the body's cells. If you come upon a pt suffering from a gunshot wound or wounds, the first thing you need to do is have 911 on standby. Call, put them on speaker, and start tending to the pt. It takes a whole 5 seconds... that's a lot of time, but EMS and ALS can do a LOT more than you or I can on your own. So the CAT tourniquet you have is awesome! I can't say thank you enough for having that! I would definitely suggest another pair of nitrile gloves, more sterile and absorbent gauze, and a hemostatic dressing. Great pack man! I love these videos!!! Please keep them coming!

[@Smokdeel]

Docprepper Thank you for sharing knowledge 🤠👍🏻

[@TaleRavenTarot]

It's really weird how you say "females" instead of women.

[@HVG67]

Now there is useful info! Thanks for spreading knowledge!

[@andrewtimms4299]

I would be v. interested to see your take on a minimalist ultra lightweight edc bag.

[@MsVitalSurvival]

Andrew Timms - Exactly.

[@heathenhymnal]

Nice to see a REASONABLE edc. I am to the point where I usually cringe when I see someone using the word "prepper" as that usually means they have 3 guns, 100 rounds of ammo, 5 knives, 3 multitools, 16 fire starting tools, 4 different shelters, more medical supplies than an ambulance (most of which they don't even have the training to use), a rocket launcher, and a bag of angry cobras. Not one time in your two part video did I go "wait why the hell are you carrying that?" Nice setup and clever organizing system with the colors.

[@iNowHateAtSigns]

I use my big bag of snakes (don't have to be cobras, BTW) monthly, if not weekly.

[@jamesmoriarty2001]

But I like my 100 rounds of ammo...

[@kittycats2827]

I thought you said angry clothes. Which kinda works too

[@kadocwellington]

I have watched A LOT of EDC and BOB videos and while I get the contents and set up of most of the bags, many of the others seem just random and thrown together. I like the fact that you organize yours by need and separate the contents to make everything easier to find. I live in the city as well and spend a fair amount of time in my vehicle to and from work even though I live within 7 miles of my business. I have a small kit that compliments my main EDC bag and I often find myself wanting more organization in it. I really enjoyed the video and it gave me a lot more information and ideas than many other videos. Keep up the great work! Definitely gained a loyal subscriber tonight Take it easy and stay prepared!

[@CanadianPrepper]

"Those unexpected over nighters" you dog you hehe... really nice organization you must be trained to your color system by now, looking for colors when you need a certain tool. That's some slick organization Cliff keep up the good work

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Canadian Prepper Haha... That comment was more for overnight business trips, layovers or nights at the in-laws. However, others can use that module to suit their own needs. I'm glad you like the organization! Yes, my family is now getting really used to search for colors when trying to find items. It's been working well for us!

[@frankm.2850]

TheUrbanPrepper My EDC pack really is my EVERY day carry pack. I've used it as my carry-on (and in one or two cases my only piece of luggage) a couple times since I started carrying it, so having a Dopp kit that just sort of lives in there makes packing that much easier.

[@CampingwithBarb]

Given that you live in Seatle, I'm surprised you don't EDC rain gear in your pack.

[@learningtobeprepared4866]

What stands out to me about this setup is that it truly is an EDC pack. What you need is what you have. I keep similar stuff in my Trident 20. Thanks for sharing. As always, you have a great presentation!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

LearningToBePrepared Thanks! I did try to make this one a true EDC pack, and not a GHB or other survival type backpack.

[@connerr8742]

I'm loving the look of all those Eagle Creek pack it cubes but a little pricey.....any cheaper alternatives that you've come across?

[@vikingsfan2123]

Cumberland Concept makes some different sized cheap zipper pouches that I used to used to organize my bug out bag. Check them out.

[@connerr8742]

Nice! thanks

[@kan-zee]

yeppers....had to revisit your video, to pick up some tips (which I forgot) and to show your amazing organizing skills , to some friends.....**BEVERAGE KIT** is a good addition = Electrolyte powder packets/ Powdered vitamins / Hot coco mix / juice powdered / Coffee packets / Water Soluable Mineral& vitamin tabs / Herbal Tea / Energy Drinks ...Cheers ;-)

[@panzerabwerkanone]

The water purifying straw is OK but how do you fill your water container with it? I didn't see water purification tabs in your kit though you did mention them in episode 1. May I suggest Sawyer Mini? Can drink directly from it or fill your water container with it. 4oz. about $25.

[@TruckingBiker1967]

You spent a lot of time making this video. I can really appreciate that. Good job. Thanks.

[@thndrpnts]

WHAT!? No guns and ammo!? Dude, you're totally unprepared. ;) If my math is correct, your pack weighs 12 pounds total without the laptop, right? (Why didn't you include the total weight in your PDF?) That's half the weight of my EDC, but my EDC is also my get home bag, so it always has a liter of water, shelter making materials, and a couple extra double stack mags. (As an aside, do you keep GHB stuff in your car to add to your EDC to keep the weight down?) My IFAK is heavier, too--it's a blowout kit since I carry a firearm with me everyday at work. One thing you might want to include is small hemostatic agent packets, like these: tinyurl.com/mlx2h9n They are perfect for deep gouges and gashes, but won't help bullet wounds. But you have a tampon for that! Lol.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Whitfield Parham Ahhh!! I knew I forgot something. I'll edit the PDF tonight with the total weight. Yeah, it's around 12 pounds without the laptop. Definitely lighter than my previous EDC Backpack. I'll look into the packets!

[@uhgtheuhg]

Thanks for another great video TUP! Have you thought about using these (www.amazon.com/Monoprice-106457-Hook-Fastening-Cable/dp/B004AFUJZC/) instead of the silver twist ties? I think that this are more usable, less prone to being lost of broken, and are useful for other things besides cables.

[@Clambelly]

Great videos. Incredible organization. Would love to see TheUrbanPrepper do a wildnerness survival system !

[@fishinjoe8844]

Love your videos! Keep up the good work.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+Taco Warrior 56 Thank you so much!

[@bryans2178]

Love your videos! Just curious - don't your magnetized items throw off your compass? Also, check out justins.com for types of peanut butter, they have them in small pouches which is really nice for under $2 a pouch / 1.15oz for your snack kit. Do you have any reviews on solar chargers?

[@ramonaza]

you actually carry this everyday?

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Jose Abe Moya Diaz Yes. This is my commuter bag to and from work. It also comes with me during the weekend of family errands.

[@2dividedby3equals666]

I'm surprised with the lack of rain gear. Your usual comment is that it rains a lot in the Seattle area, or maybe I just missed it. Great video as always.

[@thndrpnts]

2dividedby3 Good observation!

[@MrPsygo]

2dividedby3 He says that he changes it based on the season and that what is shown is just what he has in it currently.

[@2dividedby3equals666]

MrPsygo That is a good point, didn't considered that. The reason why I asked is because, where I live I don't get as much rain as he seems to, but weather here is too unpredictable here so I always have my umbrella on my bag. Since he always mentioned rain as a vital part of Seattle I thought he would always have some form of rain protection on his bag.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

2dividedby3 The version that I showed is more suited for the current weather (May/June). I will often times strap an umbrella on the top part of the backpack (e.g., top zipper pocket). I usually always have a jacket and hat when the weather calls for it, so I don't double those up in the bag.

[@lalew2]

TheUrbanPrepper Thanks for the response. The wrench just looks heavy to carry around all the time.

[@_Argos]

wow what a B.O.B ...mhhh sory , what a EDC... XD

[@DustyOldBones]

You dont need to carry so many bandaids.

[@davidjohnson6535]

Great videos. Would love to see an update on the EDC bag now that it has been a couple years.

[@operationmagiccarpet7653]

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thanks. :)

[@jessicacanfield5408]

I believe he has said he wants to be able to help other people also.

[@sdjohnston67]

Awesome! Brother, you have got to be one of the most organized dudes on the planet! Great ideas here with your modules.

[@midlifecrisisguy]

Amazing set of vids so informative excellent work makes my zip lock bags in my BOB look silly. In all seriousness there is so much good in these. I hope others looking to prep or are prepping at a beginner level learn lots of ways to add on to or update there bags.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Darrin Day Thank you so much for watching, Darrin! My original BOB used zip lock bags just like yours. The Eagle Creek style bags have really helped me become better organized. I wish I could be an official Eagle Creek Spokesman, like Jared from Subway. :)

[@BillFinger27]

This has been my standard when I made my EDC bag. I absolutely love the use of color coded small bags/organizers. Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@RoguePreparedness]

That little charging kit is SUCH a good idea! I need a compartment like that to put all of my cords and charging devices in. Love that hygiene kit, too. I have hygiene stuff and charging stuff and lots of stuff, but it's mostly just thrown in there, literally, lol. Also, I like that you carry the full size of stuff, like a full size neosporin instead of just trying to carry a one time use item. I digress, great stuff, so many ideas. You have inspired me! You're so well organized, that's something I definitely learn from you. Thank you!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Armed Rogue Thank you so much for watching, AR! The Electronics Module gets used daily. BTW, I've been enjoying all of the videos you have been producing. Thanks for posting them!

[@jdo2574]

nice quality video and complete. good work

[@emperortrajan3609]

Have you updated your Urban Get Home Bag and 72-hour bag? Sorry, it has been a while. Winter is coming and prepper mode is going in full swing now.

[@RevHiker]

Good stuff as always!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

RevHiker Thanks RevHiker!

[@xdrk0011]

Thank you for taking the time to do these. Especially the PDF's its so helpful when I want to steal your ideas for my EDC :)

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Irish Thug Please steal away! It's totally legal. :)

[@onocavinta8898]

how much does it weigh?

[@HVG67]

He was going to add the weight. He thinks it's about 12 pounds or so.

[@UrbanWoodsman87]

@@HVG67 I pretty sure his bag with all contents weighs more than 15 pounds. the laptop alone weighs about 3 pounds. and his water bottle(16 ounces water) another pound. The blue wrench he has is another .46 pounds, and the pack itself is a whopping 3.4 pounds. Total so far there is 8 pounds. all that other stuff has got to add up to another 7-9 pounds. For an EDC bag, a good goal is to stay under 14 pounds. Its amazing how much weight you can cut out using labeled heavy duty ziplock bags instead of those divider pouches and then you can use those bags for all kinds of things if need be. my setup when Im done tweaking it through the week here I should get a video up on my channel sometime this next weekend will be right around 10 pounds.

[@jetmech85]

Thanks for the great video gave me some good ideas for my EDC!

[@californyaeh]

Great vid, Very informative..!! I've made my own waterproof prep backpack, but there are few items you showed that are missing to me ! But here in france we don't have as much as trekking, bugout and outdoor materials and tools that you guys have in US or Canada, so i need to purchase online.. So Thanks TUP...(I'll keep on watching your uploads..from Paris)..!!!

[@timlipinski2571]

Nice setup for an urban area. For a low key daypack I have the Maxpedition Testudo Laptop Backpack bag, though a little small for a day pack. The bag can hold a 17" or smaller laptop and the big inside pocket fits the AR500 soft Backpack Level IIIA Armor. Be careful for a backpack may label you as a homeless person and you may be shot by the police in ABQ (ABQ 2014 and in the Courts for now). Thank you for another great video ! tjl

[@jackwalsh1468]

Cliff, a very well and organized video. I must be very anal in my organization and total amount of kit. My car get home Ruk is 30Kg and the one for my motor is 24Kg. Similar equipped, but more inclusive for four seasons. My INCH kit is 50Kg and I hope that it will never have to be used. My Comms module has a Ham radio, SAT phone and SPOT transponder as a last ditch emergency beacon. Thank you for a great video. Cheers, Mate.

[@SparrowS9]

Это не EDC рюкзак, это скорее аварийный (или тревожный) рюкзак ))). Но видео интересное, спасибо.

[@mvanvelsen]

A idea would be using hair bands to organise your cables. These cdn.drogisterij.net/site/watermerk.php?image=ZN6104_1_Zenner_Elastiek_Dun_Zwart_Metal_Free.jpg&dim=129

[@Ang3lik4Sway]

Love the colour coding. Just overkill with the name tag on the zipper. That's just extra weight (although minimal) u could've left it out. Otherwise I love your organisational skill. I might take that on. :)

[@sharonfransen1191]

Love you organization. You always have something I need!! Spent more money!! Thank you.

[@keaoc4311]

I love your organization and have modeled many of my systems after yours. However as a father of 2 myself I was interested in what your edc bag looks like when your out with your family (nights/weekend outings,etc.)I find that I just can't fit what I think I need in my edc bag to support more people. Thanks

[@DisabledPrepper]

Hey Cliff, is your PDF still available for download? For me it says, I need authorisation to download? Thanks. Warm regards. DisabledPrepper

[@yeappii]

Hello, preppers, offer me a backpack for edc, that would be durable have an usb port, and look not tactical, and could open all the way around [if you understand what i want to say - like maxpedition micro pocket organizer], it can be from ebay, amazon or aliexpress, price does not matter, sorry for my english, Greetings from Eastern Europe. Offer a model in the comments?

[@drewcifuuuu6578]

You should think about replacing your electronic cables with retractable versions. Overall, nice pack. :)

[@Meatwaggon]

Maxi pads collect blood that is being lost via menstruation, but that doesn't make them effective 'bleed stoppers' by any stretch of the imagination. The only things that stop bleeding is chemicals (e.g. QuikClot) and pressure (e.g. tourniquets, trauma bandages). Maxi pads will just laugh as they let you bleed out. On that note, tampons just trade a temporary fix for a longer term hazard after they break apart inside your body and you have to fish them out of your trauma cavity after it's all been clotted and stuck to your tissues, resulting in reopened bleeding wounds. Just use the stuff that's made for trauma, as I said trauma bandages, tourniquets, and QuikClot. Or at least something that approximates pressure, like a rolled-up t-shirt. Maxi pads and tampons are just prepper gimmicks that will get you killed.

[@ashleysabatini2078]

My partner gave me this awesome survival guide “suvo amazing guide” (Google it) as a gift and I have to say I loved it very much. Both of us are interested in disaster readiness, so this book is really useful for preparing for anything that can happen. Most books out there state the obvious, however this one goes a little more in depth in the "whats and hows" of being well prepared.

[@Rob-jn6bj]

I live in Queensland, Australia, so I use sunscreen and insect repellent all the time. I love this video - it makes me so happy. You’ve done an amazing job

[@mijazukant]

You will probably not see that comment because the video is not recent but what i like in watching videos like this is to « steal » ideas about organising my own bags. And when you have a lot of good ideas, my fav one is the way you organise everything. I do too because i think it is best that way. And i rarely see that in other videos. Thumbs up!

[@mcrfreako1011]

Have you considered getting a folding toothbrush? They're a cheap pack of two at cvs, it saves room and keeps them clean!

[@ICPadict36]

@TheUrbanPrepper does your wife do edc vid as well? if not, she should. it's nice to see female edcERS =D

[@kuribo1]

Great stuff, great bag, great set up. Just do not buy Korean, you should stick with Japanese products.

[@jmtnvalley]

Most people don't realize that dental floss is tough and can be used to sew/repair many objects. My wife repaired her friend's reigns when out in the middle of nowhere when horse back riding.

[@alimfuzzy]

I really like your gear and thinking. have you thought about including some ear plugs and some safety googles - the kind that go over your glasses. if things go pair shaped things may get loud. or just to block out distractions.

[@brentjacobs7083]

One question: How heavy is your edc backpack? Thanks for the PDFs BTW.

[@Spyderfreak1]

what is the total cost of the bob. excluding the eye micro compartment. thanks in advance.

[@beelzebub6802]

hey really great stuff you do! really detailed and comprehensive! do you know some smaller divider for the edc pouches? because on my system the pockets dont need to be as big as yours because i dont carry as much as you.

[@mshowers5246]

Another excellent vid with organization maximized. After seeing your set up ... I realize that I'm not worthy. :)

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

mark showers Haha... You are totally worthy. Thanks for watching, Mark!

[@xenusceptic]

In all honesty I don’t think you’d survive 5 mins in any situation , you’d do better to leave incidents to professionals and get some first aid training

[@andrewkeeton3627]

Nice to see a bag with actual EDC use items instead of urban Rambo tactical survival bag

[@anthonyrampino7734]

Ive been watching a lot of videos on the vanquest trident 20 trying to decide on a edc pack. Your two videos are the best for how to use this pack. The way you have it packed out is the way I thought of using it! Awesome videos!!!

[@ToniSin1]

mmmmm..."Beefy".......you ONLY cost me $150.00 this video! Keep up the great work!!

[@ronsoyka2555]

Only $150? I priced the bag alone over $170! I went with a sling by 3V instead.

[@PrepperPotpourri]

If you need a purple bag (instead of beet colored), there are large zippered cosmetic bags on Amazon that are purple.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Prepper Potpourri Nice! Can you send me a link?

[@PrepperPotpourri]

Just search for "purple cosmetic bag" in Amazon. My favorite is www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HXK5IEI/ref=s9_simh_gw_p194_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-1&pf_rd_r=0Q42HA88WSKQWTZ06YQB&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=2079475242&pf_rd_i=desktop. It has a purple & white zig zag pattern and measures 9x6x3 inches. There are solid purple bags too.

I would lose everything in this bag

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+Tom Chip Behrendt Oops! I'll look into it. Thanks for the heads up.

[@GamzaLive]

Awesome sir I am inspired to get my pack more organized and have some ideas from your kit. I always like to carry those cheap emergency ponchos since in Colorado weather can change very fast. I remember 1 night it dropped to 5 below zero with a snow storm, the next day around 2pm it was 70 degrees clear skies and the snow was melted/gone lol. Crazy.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Commissar Gamza Awesome! I'm glad to have helped inspire you with your own kit. That is SO cool. I could probably squeeze in a poncho into my Clothing module. I will sometimes attached an umbrella to the top outer pocket rope when rain is anticipated.

[@WanderingBeast]

always evolving, I might leave the smitty built led strobe in the car though, maybe a smaller bike flasher, they are crazy bright these days

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Wandering Beast True. I could definitely save some space. I liked the magnet capabilities of it. I will look at refining it, perhaps moving it directly to the car. I already have other red flares /LED's in the car and wanted something more for other vehicles. Thanks for watching, Beast! BTW, when you we going to meet up?

[@WanderingBeast]

TheUrbanPrepper unfortunate to much personal stuff came up, maybe in sept.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Wandering Beast OK. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[@yes_man_lol]

what is the total weight of the bag after putting all those stuff?

[@nsillej]

I am trying to get to the pdf. It seems to be not working.

[@heoung8611]

Nice video! do you carry that backpack everyday?

[@Mexicanmike87]

I absolutely love your edc videos they helped me organize my bag by seperating into specific compartments too :3 the only thing I have to say would be to round off the edges of all the tubes like your toothpaste and such to prevent them from tearing your compartments :)

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Q-Pid Avenger Nice tip on the toothpaste! I've never run into that problem, but I could definitely see what happening over time. Thanks!

[@Mexicanmike87]

No problem :) glad I could help :)

[@markspangler8573]

Good, but too much stuff. How much does it weigh?

[@indianprepper2478]

WHY NO KNIFE ? ,BK2, fero rod ? any way gr8 show

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Yogesh Joshi I already EDC a folding blade, but I have the one on my multitool. I tried to make this one as close to TSA safe as possible, although it does have the precision cutting tool. Over the past 4 years I've found that I rarely if ever used the backup knife I carried in my EDC Backpack. So I decided to omit it. Same goes with the backup flashlight. For EDC purposes, I prefer having a BIC lighter over a ferro rod, which I feel is better suited for a survival kit.

[@iangardener3464]

Man you are well organised. Im jealous 😁

[@TheMountainRN]

That light could be good for office party too with all those red flash lol. Nice kit once more well done 8)

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

TheMountainRN LOL! Good idea! I may try that. Combine it with the bluetooth speaker.

[@donaldradel6878]

Great video series and Great information. Only thing that is a personal quirk is the amount of stuff Hanging on the outside of the pack. Brings back memories of the old westerns where the chuck wagon came CLANKING along down the trail. Been a boarderline prepper since 1980 when I entered public safety service and had to outfit my rig with "what if" equipment. Thanks for your well thought out vid's...

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Donald Radel Thanks for watching, Donald. I completely understand the hanging stuff. The bottle is often times not attached, but I like having the option to carry it. I haven't figured out a better way of having quick access to the whistle without attaching it externally to the backpack.

[@misteryee]

Regarding the electronics module, have a look at the HooToo Travel Wireless Router Battery Pack, Dual USB Wall Charger HT-TM04... not sure about the size, but this device is a dual charger plus it is a battery pack and a mini travel router. I personally don't have it but it is something I am eyeing for future purchase.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Robert Yee Looks awesome! Thanks for the tip, Robert!

[@franksantiago6909]

GREAT VIDEOS- I AM GOING TO WATCH THEM ALL-

[@HiddenNemo]

TheUrbanPrepper Good job again on your video and organization methods. Are you still using the Picnic Time Pranzo Insulated Lunch Tote or do you also fit your lunch in your EDC backpack too? Some suggestions for your modules: 1) Get the 100 pack of velcro wraps from Amazon for your cables instead of twist-ties. 2) Wrap some gorilla tape on your neosporin in case it bursts in your bag to help protect against it leaking all over your first aid module. 3) A combined compass with a mirror can be nicer for navigating a bearing, and can offer a signal mirror in the same piece. Keep up the good work!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

HiddenNemo Yes. I still try to bring my lunch to work when I can. I will just carry it with my hand. Good tips!

[@lucaspresmanesjusto1550]

Great video!! You should update your EDC apps, it would be AWESOME! it's 2 years old and I'm pretty sure that you changed them!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Lucas Presmanes Justo Haha... Yeah, it has been a while. Most are obsolete now.

[@benbauer2582]

Hello Doctor Urban,,,, New to your channel, it's been extremely informative. I'm been watching lots of your u tubes. I especially like the way you're going with the modules. At this point I'm trying to decide between the E bags or the Eagle Creek. I'm not sure which is your favorite right now. Also looking at a bag and do not want to draw attention. Any latest suggestions would be greatly appreciated? BB

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+ben bauer eBags have more color choices, which works better for my Bug Out Bag. I like the Eagle Creek quarter size cubes. Depends how dependent on specific colors you are.

[@throughthedoor]

smart idea with the maxi pad. never thought of that.

[@gladibrus]

Thank you for another awesome video. I've copied the idea of having a module based system in my EDC bag (5.11 Rush 12). Instead of a bandana I carry a buff style headband. I find that more useful for my needs.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

gladibrus Nice tip on the headband! I may need to look into that option. Thanks for watching. I'd love to see your Rush 12 modular setup!

[@christopherbiegel9553]

This was a great series! I also have that backpack and sometimes hang a water bottle on the side. I ended up getting the ISOPOD-SMALL Fold-Up Pouch which I hooked to the webbing where you have your bottle attached. I like this pouch because I can use it as a water bottle (or whatever) holder or roll it up and out of the way.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Christopher Biegel Nice! I'll look into that pouch. Thanks Christopher.

[@michaelloveland2804]

Really looking e your kit/packs... But I can't watch an entire video due to your voice and extremely confusing that raises numerous questions and nerdy method of talking and explaining your build method

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Sorry to hear that you don't enjoy my voice or presentation style. Fortunately, there's a ton of other great channels out there that covers emergency preparedness.

[@professorjoe9980]

I really like the way you handle organization. I think that's what I get the most out of in your videos. Other ideas too, but i definitely changed the way I organize my current pack and i like it 10x better already! Thanks man!

TheUrbanPrepper Where did you get those tags to put on your modules? Really appreciate your organization and documentation. Keep up the great work!!!!

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

marrngtn You can get the on Amazon, Ebay and Harbor Freight. Search for "color key tags". Thanks for watching!

Next time you're at TJ's keep an eye out for their store brand fruit bars. They're nothing but dried fruit (my favorite is Apple+Strawberry, assuming the ingredients list isn't a liar, all that's in it is apples and strawberries) plus, since they're a store brand they're dirt cheap at $1 a bar.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Frank Martin Nice. I definitely will! Sounds like a great option!

[@MsVitalSurvival]

Cool organization. Awesome list of everything you could carry. But WAY too much stuff for EDC. Prepping has become an obsession for materialists and their gear videos. In a real emergency (or even a fire drill) you’d drop or leave 99 the items to save your life.

Is it really too much if there was a real grid down economic collapse? He will be stuck in the city with people who will be wounded because of the chaos and panic and possibly looters. I say for everyday he probably is but if it makes him feel secure and he wants to carry it then he should have it.

I agree with you're ideas on prepping and adding some form of prepping in your EDC mate I do have a similar approach for my EDC Bag which is a Targus 15.6 inch laptop bag and I use that for College and residential stays at College.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

***** Sweet! I'm glad we have similar mindsets on EDC.

Hey TUP just thought I would share something I recently picked up for my edc bag is the cyanb 3 in 1 usb cable it's a usb cable with a micro usb lighting and type c so it can satisfy three different types of devices and it's only one cord they are only 10 on Amazon but every bit you can combine helps to cut down on weight and space check it out! Thanks for the awesome vids have a great day

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Nice! I'll add it to my Amazon Wish List. Thanks for the heads up, EDC Junkie!

[@quinnreed9786]

EDC Junkie How much is it

[@jake2993]

Quinn Reed I think it's like $9.99 on amazon

[@Ispowzfmanalog15]

Splendid. This is a great pack.

[@kevingolden734]

You sir are over prepared

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Thanks! (?)

[@jessicacanfield5408]

I would say if it makes him feel secure he should have it

[@Drewy62]

Seems like a very complete collection with one glaring exception, a micro fiber cleaning cloth. From glasses to camera lens to smudged tablets...I use one every day.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

+Andrew Yarborough That would be a nice addition. I keep one in my Altoids EDC Tin. I'll rethink also including one in this bag.

[@waltsnoop]

Love all your videos, but I'm not sure if you want to have your tooth brush exposed to the toxic bug repellent that could be discharged with a pump. Also need to find a better way to store those bluetooth speakers so it's doesn't get crushed in your unskeletonized eagle creek bag.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Waltsnoop Great tip! I think I will move the bug spray into one of the front pockets to avoid this happening.

[@earnhar768]

+theurbanprepper nice work on the video and pdf! I like how you made version 3.0 different from 2.0 so that it gives different options.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Gerald Earnhardt Thanks Gerald. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, 3.0 is MUCH different.

[@thndrpnts]

Oh, and another thing about signaling--three is the general rule for signaling that you're in duress. I'd have at least three of those snaplights to use for signalling, especially since they don't weigh much.

[@TheUrbanPrepper]

Whitfield Parham I can certainly throw a few more into that pocket. Good point.
