Quake Kits Mini Emergency Kit

Core Essentials in a Zippered Pouch

The Quake Kits Mini Emergency Kit is built for the places a full kit doesn't fit — a desk drawer, a glovebox, a school backpack. It's hand-assembled and covers the same core categories as a full kit, just scaled down to fit in one hand.

Inside: a 400-calorie food bar and a 4.2 oz water pouch for sustenance, a multi-function pocket knife and sewing kit for tools, a 12-hour glow stick, a 5-in-1 whistle, a dynamo squeeze flashlight, and 40 waterproof matches for light and signaling, plus a mylar blanket and poncho for warmth.

Best for

• A starter kit for someone with no preparedness gear yet
• Supplementing a larger kit already at home
• Desk drawers, glove boxes, and school bags
