During Hurricane Laura a few weeks ago we were without Power for around 36 hours and although we had a generator for our basic needs (deep freeze, fridge, Window A\/C Unit, Internet Router) we found we could use a few of these domed strobes as table lamps and basically light the living room and bathroom area without having to use regular electrical lamps. Like all Maratac lights, this one packs a TON of power from one AA Battery! This model also has the STROBE feature which is always a handy tool to have either for emergency signaling or to use to disorientate in a self-defense scenario.<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"product-single__title\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/countycomm.com\/collections\/other-lights\/products\/18650-extreme-tactical-light-by-maratac\">Ultra V2 18650 Extreme Rechargeable LED Flashlight by Maratac<\/a><\/h2>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ultra V2 18650 Extreme Rechargeable LED\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BlhbSYsrrvs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h3>I have been a dedicated fan of rechargeable lights ever since Hurricane Ike back in 2008. My TX homestead was without power for 24 days and water for 17. At that time the majority of my flashlights were battery powered and I only had a couple of rechargeable lights. Because of the duration of time of being without power and my low supply of batteries (that will NEVER happen again!) I found myself depending almost entirely on my rechargeable&#8217;s for the sole fact I could recharge them via a 12V car battery or the USB port on my computer.<\/h3>\n<h3>I am a certified flashlight junkie and I will tell you guys straight: This light is a beast.<\/h3>\n<h3>Any light that can produce over a THOUSAND lumens for almost 2 hours (turbo mode) is no lightweight! Add to that a beam throw that is over 300 yards and you have yourself a bonafide all around flashlight for any situation!<\/h3>\n<h3>The only thing I would add is purchasing an inexpensive wall-plug to go with the USB cord to give yourself the option of charging at the wall versus charging on a laptop or other device.<\/h3>\n<h3>I have also suggested to the R\/D Dept. that they include a 12V Cig Lighter Charging cable in the future!<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"product-single__title\" style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/countycomm.com\/collections\/edc-kits\/products\/nsn-wounds-seal-kit\">2 Pack &#8211; Wound Seal Kit + NSN \/ USA Made!<\/a><\/h2>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Occlusive Chest Seal\/Wound Seal Overview\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p373Wkz8TdI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h3>Keeping your first-aid and trauma kit&#8217;s well stocked and up-to-date is a given these days and having a a few <em>QUALITY<\/em> wound-seal kits is a MUST.\u00a0 H&amp;H Medical is a top tier manufacturer of <em>QUALITY<\/em> medical items for civilian, LEO and military so rest assured you are not using some cheap flimsy crap that will not work when you need it too!
