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.

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.

Blowdryer, microwave, and a betamax machine (for trading)

Hilarious. [ROFL1] G3 or G4 network?

I'll ditch all that crap and use a compass and a map.

Naw. I just plan on turning the old lady into a pack mule.




Don't tell her the plan though, its a secret.

Prolly works for blow dryers and microwaves, too.
