I found a foldable solar panel device on Cheaper than dirt. Now I know some here dont like cheaper than dirt, but this solar panel got my attention. So in a SHTF, what electronic devices would you bring. Remember, some things will be down at this time. Just throwing this out there.
I would probably bring a battery charger so i can recharge flashlight, short range radio batteries.

Ya might try this up in the survival forum. ;)
I will take my gps and hand radio.
Nothing electric I can't live without.
I like my GPS, but if SHTF, there is a chance satellites won't be working depending on the severity.
A phone is the same issue.
I would definitely want my laptop so I could log in here and see how you guys are doin![Coffee]
I can't really think of anything I would truly need to survive.

Hilarious. [ROFL1] G3 or G4 network?
I'll ditch all that crap and use a compass and a map.
I think the women might have an idea or 12....
