Crazy Weird Survival Gear That Just Might Save Your Ass
If you live in harsh climates or areas prone to nature's wrath, sometimes having the right gear can be the difference between life and death. Fortunately, there are plenty of companies and designers out there vying to be the one to save your ass when the big one hits—but some of the stuff they come up with is downright bizarre. Wired has put together a gallery of these items—some of which we have seen already (like the Cocoon "nutsack" tent and the Bedu rapid response kit), while others (like those illustrated in the gallery below) are completely new. For the full list, hit the following link. [Wired] More » -

Grundig Eton Satellit 750 Shortwave Radio (Yes, Shortwave)
The Beef: I am not a shortwave enthusiast, by any means, but the industrial design, open for a literal interpretation on the industrial. It's got AM, FM, shortwave, longwave, SSB and aircraft band frequencies. There's a scan or manual input by 10-key. And check the analog gauge and yellow-glow back lighting. Very nice. There's also an aux in for audio input. More » -

Grundig Eton FR1000 Voicelink Survival Radio Is Gorgeous
Awesome: The Eton FR1000 Voicelink is maybe one of the most pornograpic survival radios I've ever seen, but functionally so. IT has AM/FM/NOAA Weather/2-Way GMRS Radio. And a Flashlight, siren, and Cellphone charger. It runs off of 4AAs, but has a hand crank. The design seems superfluous, but those cutouts actually protect the knobs. There's a large handle on the back. If I were to die stranded in the wilderness, I might be slightly less upset clutching one of these beautiful machines. $150. More »
