Great video. I personally would put a container so I could boil water, a change of clothing in a dry bag, a whistle to signal for help. a can opener, a tarp for shelter, a ground cloth to sit and lay down on. Sleeping bag, Paracord, a knife, spoon and fork. Hygiene kit. Sunscreen, insect repellent, eye protection, Maps, maybe even a Compass.

[@stuartaminion511]

so in other words a few bug out bag, not a hurricane kit, so it should have read a few survival bug out bag (stay at home bag) not a kit,

[@NothingToNoOneInParticular]

LOVE my Grayl! Just remember to try to pre-filter the water before putting it through the Grayl and have a backup filter for the Grayl, just in case. I'm obsessive about water and have 3 purification systmes, all different methods, in case one style fails. Grayl is my on the go filter. Survivor Filter battery operated filter for huge amounts of water, Survivor Filter, manual pump as a back up. Smaller filters are great to keep around always. Frontier Straws, Life Straws, etc...you cannot have too many ways to Purify water!

[@zBMatt]

Just an addition, store your identifying documents in those containers that you can put in your car. Nothing worse than losing your identity to a storm, hard to impossible to get aid or move freely without them in disaster scenarios.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Yeah that's a great tip!

[@christineklutts4991]

Ice 🧊 & charcoal

[@alecshane6683]

I’d get rid of the $100 bill and carry smaller currencies instead. You could get robbed if flashing around big bills like that . Also many places won’t take it with the risk of being fake.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Hey Alec, yeah that is a great idea!

[@zBMatt]

@@UrbanSurvivor 5 20s always do the trick. 50 - 100 dollar bills are pretty much always scrutinized.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

@@zBMatt Yeah $20s are a good way to go! That way a case of water doesn't end up costing you $100 either.

[@TomSmith-kc8mz]

Good video. I'd like to add: if public safety officials say you should leave...DO IT.

[@vont9404]

Wow! Thank you for your detailed review of our Vont Blaze! True enough, it's an absolute must-have in every household!😉

[@911SuzieQ]

Unless you are a criminal and want a fresh start at life ! JOKING sorry carry on

[@largol33t1]

In addition to a water filter, buy some purification tablets from Aquamira. They also sell filtration water bottles that can be used with swamp water! Regarding flashlights: do NOT buy Niteeye. The brand is VERY unreliable despite the steep prices. They are not worth it. Instead, buy a $20 Mini Maglite and make sure it says LED light on the packaging. This means it's brighter and uses less energy so your batteries will last longer. Remember to use only lithium batteries. It can run on alkaline but lithium won't leak if stored for long periods of time.

[@largol33t1]

Also, remember to have MULTIPLE sources. Never have only one light. Get a cheap LED camping lantern. There is a brand called FengChi, which is sold in a 3-pack and has hooks to hang from a cord. It got a lot of very good reviews and is less than $19. Also, don't forget your towel. Yes, I read the book "The Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy" but it makes sense. You might get wet in a hurricane so have a few towels in a watertight bag in case you get drenched.

[@gregsmith1116]

Thanks US. Good list for prepping the hurricane since it is immanent. Thanks for the info.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

No problem! Yeah its good to have at least the basics ready so you aren't scrambling when the time comes. Most people have a lot of this stuff around the house anyways. Thanks for watching Greg!

[@andrewm1606]

Great video. I would definitely try to order some of these items well before a big hurricane comes. I remember trying to order stuff 3 days before Hurricane Irma came, it was hard to get shipments in time due to stock issues and delivery interruptions.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

haha yeah I'm sure it was tough to get the stuff you needed 3 days in advance. I imagine those delivery guys were swamped and probably didnt want to work with a storm coming anyways...

[@longviewstud26]

Wonderful video

[@coyotegirl777]

I personally am using your video as a reference for my friends right now I just got done graduating and getting my certificate from CERT and I’m using your stuff to show my friends

[@darnellb85]

👋❤️Love the review and advise. Would like to 👀see more for preparedness for emergencies. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Thanks, Glad you enjoyed it Darnell! More to come!

[@bagelbob3979]

Thanks for the guide, I will build one like this!!I live in an apartment so their isn't much room for preps but There is a small spot that could probably stack like 3 of those bins, So one of those bins would be for hurricane stuff, while i do live a bit more far up on the east coast often hurricanes get alot of rain(sometimes knocking down power lines, etc)I plan on making a winter bin(most damage the east coast gets are from winter, and hurricane season)With the third one either being a food& water bin, or a general tool and utility bin.Thanks for reading this long comment,great work as always

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Yeah I really like how compact these bins are and yo can definitely stack them a few high. Yeah a lot of this stuff would be good for cold weather but you would need some jackets, blankets and more food and water!

[@bagelbob3979]

@@UrbanSurvivor Yup, best thing is that if someone ever robbed me i don't think the would both looking at the bins(just label it as toys or something)

[@cruiser122s.d.8]

Great video!!! My family emergency kit has Grayl water bottles, a Sawyer Minis, Whirl bags, gallon jugs with funnels (for catching rain water), LifeStraws, Jet Boil adapters and fuel, solar water kettles for boiling water/cooking, an emergency radios with 5 ways to charge it (it has 2 light sources, a charger, an alert feature, an SOS alarm, am/fm/weather stations, etc.), solar/hand crank/battery operated flashlights & lanterns, solar panels & solar chargers (with the cords built in), hand crank chargers, power banks, solar battery rechargers, rechargeable batteries, USB batteries, disposable batteries, multitools, gloves, eye goggles, water, food, first aid kits, a pocket tv, waterproof containers, waterproof pouches, plastic utensils, paper plates, plastic cups, a cooking Glacier cup, ponchos, emergency blankets, emergency bivvys, bandanas, shemaghs, few entertainment items (like a deck of cards, dice, dominoes, a few board games, books, coloring books/activity books, a tablet, an mp3 player, mini electronic games, etc.), self-defense items, an external hard drive, flash drives, copies of important documents & photos in a waterproof/fireproof container/document holder, a fire kit, signal mirrors, whistles, Scrubba wash bags, dryng racks, clotheslines, cash, coins, walkie-talkies. I don't have my emergency kit just for hurricanes. It's for all emergencies/disasters. We have a bug out bag/kit ready to go too.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Awesome! Are you here prepping for California's tropical storm? Noticed a nice uptic in views on this video in the last few days lol.

[@cruiser122s.d.8]

I was born & raised in San Diego, but I am getting ideas on here for my family and friends back home. You definitely have a great setup.

[@swishh55]

Luci lights are awesome for lighting any area; they are solar lights I use for camping. Luci lights charge easily, last a long time and have various brightness modes. Basically, if you have camping gear, (tent camping especially) you should have almost everything you'd need for disasters.

[@rjosprey9808]

Nichia 219c emitters for flashlights are equal to Cree XP-G3. Always pick warmer (redder) emitters if give a choice. Blue (cooler) emitters blow your night vision. I don't care about brands but aim for the common battery size 14500/AA and more efficient emitters.

[@JLewis-uz5tn]

If add photocopies of your personal identification information. A firearm with multiple mags/ammo. A mutlitool. A hand saw or hatchet/axe.

[@gregoriancatmonk6904]

Oh and Incase you go to your attic to avoid flooding, take an axe so that you have a way to get to your roof if you need to.

[@user-xj8xb5qo8x]

Just a little tip. Any device that utilizes a battery should be stored long term with the batteries removed. Batteries tend to leak when they lose their charge. And buy High-quality batteries such as Duracell, these tend not to leak.

[@rjosprey9808]

IMHO a flashlight that takes 14500 lithiums, that can also take standard AAs. Both are the same physical size. You can get chargers for the lithium from any USB-A charger, powerbank, wall, car cig lighter, solar using a compatible 14500 charger. Best to pick a flashlight with a very efficient emitter, for example Cree XP-G3. I have 14500 Xtars with Cree XP-G3 emitters and headbands to make them into headlights when convenient. AAA batteries cost about the same as AAs, but deliver much less juice. Some people like zooms, others like the more compact non zooms. Trustfire makes a charger that fits any lithium cell battery, that doubles as a powerbank using larger batteries such as 26650. TrustFire Magnetic USB Charger for 16500/14500/26650/16340 Lithium Li-Ion Battery. Maybe you want a large 26650 flashlight for the car or abode.

[@anthonygomez446]

You eat All that MOUNTAIN HOUSE IN A LIFE TIME, I SUGGEST GOING TO SEE A CARDIOLOGIST

[@beckyhallam8374]

Great video but in my experience post hurricane there is no sun. Solar chargers will be useless.

[@UrbanSurvivor]

Thanks for watching! With regards to the panel, it could be useful after the storm passes if power has not yet been restored.

[@vestilad242]

"its waterproof if you cut off the wet part"
