Drinking game: take a shot every time Dan says "all that good stuff".

Im an 80s kid as well,love walkie talkies, my kids go on bike rides or walks they always have one, especially when camping.

I car camp a couple of times a year and, even at paid campgrounds, good cell coverage isn't guaranteed and antennas in phones are generally crappy. One of the things I bring with me (just in case) is an internet hotspot, connected to a really good antenna, and use wi-fi calling along with that. It doesn't help away from the campsite, but it's something.

No cell service in most places I've gone in the West. I always made my daughter carry basics including a whistle and taught her to turn around every few steps. I charge my phone in my car overnight with the car off. I can run my 12v electric blanket all night with my car off, too. Love that!

Great idea//// walkie talkies I have em but only use in hunting season ty

Something else I do with my walkie talkies, If I leave on a hike I place a note on the dash of my vehicle, visible through the windshield with information about how many in the party, direction, etc. I also include the radio frequency I keep my radio tuned to. I have a couple cheap blister pack FRS radios for this since they are very common if I need rescue then odds are a rescue team will have one, or can just go to walmart and buy one easily enough. I have other, better, radios of course, but the FRS ones are cheap and too easy for this application.

I'm a General licensed ham radio operator so I carry a small light Yagi antenna with my handheld so I can get out if needed from a hill top. If I'm going really remote, a personal locator beacon would be my choice

Good evening from Syracuse NY brother

Awesome video man, I hope you enjoyed glamping with rhe kid,

I love my Anker. Mine's a little smaller but can dual charge off my AC and DC usbc while driving. It's enough to run my cpap a couple days without humidity on.

Cool info

For the same price range you can get a comparable one with solar panels included. The light kit is kinda nice.

I've decided we should start calling it a Hot-Jack now instead of a cigarette lighter!

Anker was one that we considered and is good, though we went with the Ecoflow Delta Pro and now we're probably getting the ultra version too.

I just got an Anker Solix C1000. If I had seen this pack when i was shopping, i might have accepted the drop in kwh. As it stand though, having that easy 1kwh number to work with makes it really easy to quick math in my head how much power output i have and how many devices i can run.

While I don't have personal experience with them, I'm told that regarding cell phones and walkie-talkies, there are apps and accessories that will let you use your phones AS two-way radios: maybe that's worth looking into in a future video? I'd spring for it . . .

Thank you

A quick rundown from the productsponsor? Its 4:40 from the 9:00 minutes.

Great video, always great content. Learned a lot from you 9ver the last few years.

Great video, I use Life360, So If I am out Hiking or Fishing , the wife knows where I at if I dont Check in or have problems

I have a EcoFlow River 2 and also a Weboost Cell booster. When we camp in the bush you are lucky to even get basic cell with a booster let alone any where close to a normal data link. I have mulled about getting a second antenna and making it MIMO but that is kind of defeats the purpose lol.

Hey Dan, that solar generator has some cool "out of the box" features. Ha, see what I did there. What type of battery does that utilize? Lithium iron phosphate, or lithium ion?

Ace stuff

Great video. The flashlight idea on that battery pack is awesome. Hopefully they have patent on that idea because in general that’s a money maker. Awesome idea.

How do the 2 ways work in woods? I bought a fairly expensive 50 mile (line of sight) range ones. Figured they would be good to have a set incase of an emergency so i could stay in contact with my family. But they would not even reach about 5 miles trying to get a signal out of the city. So buildings obviously destroyed that option for me. But i never tried them in the woods. What kind of reduction in range should i expect?

How do I get on your link to be able to purchase stuff

Put the phone in a faraday bag. Buy a handheld gps and a plb (not Garmin’s SOS).

I suppose it's too much to ask that the Solix could be made in the USA...?

Awesome advice. Looks like a cool charger. Never thought about walkie talkies,good point. I noticed you put a "th"sound at the end of height. Is this out of habit? Either way I like the channel.

Here in Montana forget the cell phone. Service sucks. Learn to use a Compass. Also being on a search and rescue team for years gps and cell phones don't work in my area. I would love to talk to you about really simple ways to survive. You have the best you tube channels out there. I just think there is a few things that will save peoples life's that are so simple it will blow your mind.

10 year lifespan...is that the average for these type of packs?

I'm lost....I thought I was on the coalcracker bushcraft channel, it looks like infomercial. 😢

Yay.. packing

Oh my goodness, who wouldn’t love a Dick Proenneke show at a bushcraft camp while sitting around a fire

If it is a sponsored video, do not forget mention this, thank you

Make the kids in Camp watch The Great Outdoors with John Candy hilarious movie

...that looked painful bro.

A cell phone is worse than useless in central and most of eastern Oregon. There is NO service to be had. GPS, map, and compass.

When I go out into the woods for survival, I bring a camper.

👀

My number one priority in a survival situation, is not being able to be tracked by the government.

Coalcracker pivoting from bushcrafting and stepping into the world of…. Shall I say it?!!…. Prepping! I watched the video to see for what reason - recent world events? Recent millionaires dumping stocks? None of the above… it was for a sponsor..

Even the sponsorship is quite agreeable to watch. The rest is rarest kind, use common sense!

Good video however, the audio is horrible. Sounds like you’re in a Barrel. Extreme amount of echo

Literally just a sponsered ad. 🤣

If you're actually going camping 'in the wilderness' and not an RV park - keep the technology for 'emergencies' - PUT THE FREAKIN' PHONES DOWN and enjoy nature! Maybe catch a falling star and the constellations instead of a movie. Pull the ear buds and listen to the birds and the wind instead of Taylor Swift. Unplug...

nice if you can afford the $500 so-called sale price, I can't... FAST CHARGING... I have my doubts, it can ruin you battery like my phone than and the phone UPDATES... but it was FAST CHARGING that caused my battery to PUFF and split everything and what kind of Lithium Batteries does this thing have? standard or the new LiFe...? The Fall Of The Empire Enjoy The Collapse 🤪 😠😡🤬💥💀

I'm not going to tell you what content to produce. You do what you need to do. But the name of your channel is Coalcracker BUSHCRAFT, Bushcraft is what you do. It's what you're good at. It's why I, and probably many others, watch your channel. This just feels out of place here.

You're forgetting the most important thing: get right with God. Get you a KJV; read the book of John (4th book in the new testament). Believe the gospel 1 cor 15: 1-4. Get saved. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV - Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

“Bushcraft”? WTF? Is this what we’re talking about now? Lame. 👎

Can you charge it from itself? 😂 I'm joking folks!!!
