A comprehensive kit of very good quality, with excellent first aid supplies and good food rations. But the dynamo torches are nowhere near as good as battery-powered ones, although both lasted significantly longer than the one other dynamo product in our test. There's a good list of what's in the kit and how to use it. There's also a checklist of items to add, but it's incomplete and hard to read. It's also the most expensive kit in our test and it'd cost around $70 less (excluding shipping or petrol) to build this kit yourself.

This kit also includes matches. There's no candle to go with them, but we don't recommend flame-based products for safety reasons.
