Here in Japan, earthquakes being a not too uncommon occurrence, it is pretty normal to have some sort of emergency kit in case of 'the big one'.
I've got a pretty good kit which I refresh on a regular basis, and recently decided to update/upgrade my emergency lights(please don't ask what was there before, it's embarassing
). Here is what I am thinking of:
PT Surge - Primary general purpose light
Arc AAA white - small, bright backup
Infinity white, with Lithium battery - small, long life backup (can also use Surge's batteries)
I should mention that my kit is a small backpack size ('daypack'), intended for 2 adults for about 3 days. I don't intend to include any large lantern size lights, as this is a 'grab it and run' kit.
I'm interested in what others out there would choose to put in an emergency kit like this in case of natural (or man-made) disaster, and the reasons for the choices.
