Survival Purpose
The light-weight emergency blanket fits perfectly in your Stage 1 essentials pouches. It compliments insulative gear and radiates heat back to your body. It can provide a great value in an emergency for the price and weight sacrifice.
What We Like
- Light Weight - We justify the addition to our gear because the product is so light weight and provides a vital function.
- Really Works - We tested a bivvy made from the same material. It is waterproof, wind resistant, and reflects your body heat.
- Affordable - You can find these for very affordable prices.
Tips and Recommendations
- Fragile - The material is easy to tear. Minimize movement and snags.
- Single use - These get damaged easily and are very hard to fold up to put back in the bag.
- Not insulated - A mylar blanket is not a replacement for insulated clothing or a real blanket. They work to help you stay warm but they are not insulated.
- Water collection - Dew, rain and other water can be collected if no other plastic is available.
