Adventure Medical Kits: SOL-3

[jonlocke83]

Was that a home made fishing kit?

[devilslayer888]

I say, i'm not being sexist, but I plan to add 2-3 maxi pads to mine. They are great for helping to stop bleeding. The maxi pads evolved form WWII medical kits. It was adapted for women use because of it's absorbency. Like I said, I'm not being sexist, or against women. The absorbency will help you clot a wound, but the thing is that you have to leave it on the wound until you can get professional medical help. You can keep adding the pads on as necessary.

How much does that cost

[kidpasty72]

Great vid!! Was woundering your take on the BloodStop compared to the QuickClot. I don't really see any videos on this yet. As a beginner, this would be a great comparison test to do for application. I have the SOL-3 and am now ready to expand on its contents. Always looking for educated suggestions. Thank you for your time and consideration.

[segiant64]

where did you get the small fishing kit?

[Wraith007B]

Great review. Time permitting, I'd like to know if you purchased that fishing kit and from where, or if you made it yourself. Thanks.

[gladtidings4all]

Great video. I want to know where you get the water straw filter at? Thanks.

[dager925]

you should also add a sewing kit

[gwynn1975]

@dager925 Great idea. Thanks for the tip. Stay safe

[charper3006]

Nice little kit. AMK makes some good gear, and the price isnt bad either. Keep up the great videos.

[gwynn1975]

@charper3006 Thank you so much charper.. Have a great weekend

[hinckleypoland]

looks like a great little kit. Thanks for sharing.

[gwynn1975]

@hinckleypoland Thank you for taking the time to watch my friend. Have a great day!

[danijensen381]

We bought and tried the wet fire tinders, and tried them out. They are amazing! I would absolutely recommend them

[gwynn1975]

@danijensen381 I'll be trying them out this weekend.. Thanks for watching

[DoworkLT]

I'm with you on a lot of commercial kits, generally a lot of things you could buy in bulk at the pharm. But this certainly looks like a nice gift set. Thanks

[gwynn1975]

@DoworkLT Thank you so much my friend.. Take care

[19hawk11]

Great little kit, I think this is a great gift idea for those you know that wont buy their own.

[gwynn1975]

@19hawk11 That is what I think would be a good use for it.. thank you for watching

[faithgoshi]

great smart set up, love that kind of things!!!

[gwynn1975]

@faithgoshi It really is a cool little kit.. I'm gonna get the smaller version and see how that is.. Thanks for watching my friend

[TheDishD]

btw bro, i have noticed or more to the point not noticed, that hardly anyone carries pepper satchles or toothpaste in there 1st aid/survival kits. Pepper (black ground Cayenne is the best but normal pepper is fine) is outstanding at stopping bleeding, toothpaste (plain old normal, nothing fancy) is great for CLOSED burns kills the pain and helps in the healing (it works 1st taught it in the Royal Marines and in personal experince) both dont take up room, anyway just my .2 peace stay safe bro

[gwynn1975]

@TheDishD WOW.. I never knew about those.. I will have to give it a try.. (although, it might take me awhile to burn myself.. LOL) Thanks for the tips..

Take care

[TangoMikeFoxtrot]

Good quick way to get a basic kit fast to have while you're putting together a custom kit if you're a beginner like me. Then if you don't use it you can stash it in your spouses car, or a desk drawer at work, or a teenager's closet, lots of options. Options are good.

[gwynn1975]

@TangoMikeFoxtrot I agree.. It is a great starting point.. Even for someone like me who has custom built kits, this is a great all in one to just grab and go.. thanks for watching TMF

[parlusk]

the name is pretty funny sol...

[gwynn1975]

@parlusk HAHA.. That's what I've always thought too.. Thanks for watching bro

[ixVENGEFULxi]

do you keep any roadside emergency kit in youre vehicle? if so what ya got in there?

[gwynn1975]

@ixVENGEFULxi Yes I do. I keep a Get Home Bag, which is just a smaller version of my BOB. Right now, mostly wool blanket, gloves, hat, MRE's, water, plus a lot of basic tools and maintenance products. (oil, antifreeze, etc) I'll try to get a video of it sometime

[lordmonfort]

nice little kit. I would add a pea lighter, contractor bag, a few ranger bands, water purification tabs and a energy bar.

That would be a great Xmas gift for pretty much anyone...I think I should get one for my wife to keep in her car.

[gwynn1975]

@lordmonfort Thanks for the ideas my friend. It would be a good kit for her to carry along. You could add some stuff for the child too.

[nextexhale]

Cool kit!

[gwynn1975]

@nextexhale Thanks!

[ramsd1]

2 vids today. A good day :). I would think about putting a benadryl product in there and an anti itch cream. Thanks Trevor.

[gwynn1975]

@ramsd1 Great idea on the two ointments. Thank you. Also, thank you for the kind words and for taking the time to watch the videos. Have a great knife

[TheVirginiaPrepper]

Great review, nice additions to it as well. Thanks for sharing......... TVP

[gwynn1975]

@TheVirginiaPrepper Thank you sir! I'll be adding a knife as soon as I get my other Dozier in the mail.. thank you for watching

[edgedweapon88]

That looks like a great option if you want a prepackaged medical/survival kit. I like the items that you added to the kit. Great job and thanks for sharing Trevor.

[gwynn1975]

@edgedweapon88 Thank you Keelen. Surprisingly I really like this kit. I usually build my own, but I catch myself taking from different packs/BOB's and I forget to put them back. With this, I can just move it from pack to pack and keep all the other stuff in my BOB.. thank you for watching my friend

[LaneMaddox00]

im so glad to you did a review on that... i have the sol kit but have realy ben wanting the sol-3 great review!

[gwynn1975]

@LaneMaddox00 Thanks Lane! I wanna check out your SOL kit video.. Take care

[evankoeve]

Great video, look forward to more reviews!

[gwynn1975]

@evankoeve Thank you my friend. No worries, more of them coming soon.

[TheDishD]

great reveiw, i too am a lil wary of pre-packed med/ survival kits but this one looks pretty good, cheers for posting this, best wishes and take care.

[gwynn1975]

@TheDishD Thank you so much my friend. I was really surprised at how complete this was out of the package. Thank you for watching

[MBlackford100]

I have looked at some of AMK small survival kits and thought they were a little pricey for the comntents included, and was not sure as to the quality. The largre kit looks pretty good though. Enjoyed the review.

[gwynn1975]

@MBlackford100 Thank you sir. I agree that they can be a little spendy, but for a gift to someone that doesn't have the knowledge or motivation to build their own, this is the ticket. Thanks for watching

[ColinOutdoors]

Looks like a pretty decent kit Trevor and some great additions you put in :-) 

[gwynn1975]

@ColinOutdoors Thank you Colin. Cheers

[mwig50]

Good review as always. I carry the AMK First Aid 1.0 in my backpack. Has the same medical supplies but only the compass and whistle for survival. I got it at my local Army Navy store. One question I have had is about the medical supplies such as the antiseptic wipes, and antibiotic cream. is what is the shelf life? How often should they be replaced? Everything else has an expiration date. I am going to assume that they are good till you open it :)

Thanks for sharing!

[gwynn1975]

@mwig50 I would also assume that they are good until opened. Usually the wipes are just alcohol, but I'm not sure about the cream. Also, they aren't edibles like the medicines, so you don't' have to worry about ingesting any harmful germs..thats my guess anyway.. Thanks for watching my friend

[wolfbrother2501]

looks like one of the better kits out there and id rather have it then have nothing at all i supose lol

[gwynn1975]

@wolfbrother2501 I agree wolf.. Something is always better than nothing.. Except when it comes to STD's. LOL

[snaponjohn100]

Nice kit & substitutions. I want one.

[gwynn1975]

@snaponjohn100 Thanks John. I was really surprised at how much I liked it after going through it. Thanks for watching

[oregonmikes]

Interesting kit, What's the average retail on one?

Sorry, but that's not Wet Fire... It looks like Tinder Quick.

[gwynn1975]

@oregonmikes They usually run around $60. But you can use my coupon code to get 10% off.

Thanks for the heads up on the Wet Fire/ Tinder Quick. I've never used those, as I usually make my own fire starting tinder.

[IronRangeSurvival]

Imagine what morphine will be worth in a S.O.L. scenario.

That is a VERY nice kit for a basic set up. Thanks for sharing.

Don't forget your local "feed mill' for animal meds without a script. You will need an education to transfer use to humans in a scenario that would require it. You can always have meds like penicillin for your pets. =)

[gwynn1975]

@IronRangeSurvival Thanks IRS

[ATF6281914]

Looks like a nice kit. I may have to look into getting one.

Thanks for the vid, dude.

[gwynn1975]

@ATF6281914 Thanks ATF.. As a basic starter kit, this one has it all. Definitely worth checking it out.
