Why: When the power goes out, visibility is your first challenge. LED lanterns, headlamps, and flashlights help prevent injuries and keep things moving after dark.

Keep your phone, radio, and essential devices charged with portable power. Solar chargers give you energy independence—even in extended outages.

Water pumps often fail without electricity. Stock bottled water and use purification tablets or filters to ensure safe hydration for at least 72 hours.

During a blackout, emergency response times can increase. A well-stocked first aid kit lets you treat minor injuries and prevent infections on your own.

Because when the power’s out, you still need a safe, reliable way to cook and stay nourished.

From opening cans to quick repairs, a solid multi-tool gives you the versatility to handle unexpected problems without a toolbox.

No power can also mean no running water. Wipes, portable toilets, and hygiene kits help maintain cleanliness and comfort—especially during longer outages.

Grocery stores and cooking appliances may be unusable. Canned meals, energy bars, and ready-to-eat rations provide essential calories without refrigeration.
